We are not allowed to speak about the exams. If you read the book and do the online tests it will be easy. In fact, it is easier than the online tests.Those who had their tests so far in July & Aug for May applicants, anyone wants to share their experiences? how were the tests? is the interview after the test, how much earlier should u arrive at the location? was there a lot of questions with dates in the exam?
I was there 45 minutes before the start. You will write a paper based test, meaning you have to circle the right answers with a pencil.
We were able to hand in the test whenever we were finished.
In Vancouver they did not go after alphabet or chose the one who finished the test first faster for the interview.
Our interviews were longer than what some people say here. Mine was around 15 minutes.
I had a chat with the agent and we went through my paperwork.
I had to show all my passports, my permanent resident card and another identity paper, in my case my drivers licence.
I showed her the original transcript of my secondary education in English.
She went through my extensive travel list and checked them one by one.
We talked about my family and what they are doing and why I am traveling so much.
All was friendly and I was told I would receive oath invitation in 3-5 months.
Next day I received "decision made".
I was in there for three hours.
