🚨 174,727 candidates. The AD5 testing is getting closer.
EPSO has just released an important update for the Graduate Administrators AD5 competition, and the first phase of testing is now planned to start in November 2026.
The first part will focus on the Verbal, Numerical and Abstract Reasoning tests. Candidates will receive an invitation in their Single Candidate Portal approximately three weeks before their testing session, with the exact date and time becoming available on the testing platform at least two weeks before their test.
With 174,727 candidates taking part in this competition, now is the time to take your preparation seriously. 🎯
I can help you develop the right techniques for the reasoning tests, practise efficiently and approach the CBTs with a clear strategy rather than leaving your preparation until the last minute.
And remember: this is only Part 1. The second stage will include the EU Knowledge test, Digital Skills test and EUFTE, with further details still to come.
