The initial assessment will consist of a 5min interview and a Computer based BKSB test. On the interview, students might be asked: To say a little bit about themselves, where do they live, how long it takes them to get to the college? What their plans are after the completion of the course? (have a clear vision for the future- do they want to open a business/find a better job/continue education? They should be ready to talk more about their plans) Why did they choose this course? What are the benefits? (ask them to check out the college brochure I attached to the email and the website Apex College London - A Specialist Business College) How will they ensure they will be a good student (attend lessons regularly/submit assignments) When was the last time they studied and what subjects did they enjoy? Talk about their previous work experience- what knowledge and skills they gained there? The writing test will be done on paper, and they will need to write as much as they can about a simple topic. Some examples might be: Your favourite time of the year / Hobby / Favourite book or film / Your role model / Significant person in your life / Favourite place / Sports / Favourite programme or documentary / Famous person (present or past) / Food - Favourite recipe or what you enjoy eating / A childhood memory (significant event in your life), etc.

Before enrolling, confirm the timetable and any applicable exceptions with the provider and Student Finance England.
The provider will check that you meet the English requirements for this course, whether you are a Home or international student. Declaring your level does not replace their assessment.
Read the official attendance guidanceThe provider publishes student support services. Ask its support team about study needs, wellbeing, reasonable adjustments and any course-specific finance eligibility; support and funding are assessed individually.
