Assessment A!

emma90

Hi everyone

I went through right to choose with my GP back in November and have been waiting for the next steps since then. Today I got a call telling me my part A assessment would be tomorrow! They've given me no details about it except to tell me to have photo ID available and it'll be a 150 minute appointment via video call... I don't think I've ever had a conversation with a person for that long. Is there a general structure these assessments follow? My mind is racing at the moment... I'm worried I'll have a breakdown during it or use all my energy accidentally masking and pretending I'm okay because that's what I've done all my life. 

Are these people generally friendly or is it formal? Any advice/feedback from own experiences/ any anything would be really appreciated right now! Thank you.

  • All the best for your assessment experience.

    Feeling nervous and the mind racing is pretty normal in such circumstances from what I can gather.

    I found my assessor friendly in a professional manner.

    I did find the interview quite enlightening although naturally it stirred up a few things that were and continued to be a bit problematic for me.

    This settled pretty quickly afterwards and my support people were all really good about it.

    I hope that you're feeling OK by the time you read this and feel reassured as able.

    Best wishes
