    I’m so confused too, the practice test they included in the email doesn’t include a video interview, it’s just Cappfinity like you say?

    A&O system is so strange, where do I input the modules I sat in my undergrad and what I graduated with? The modules/ subjects you wish to record only has a-level & GCSE or equivalent on its dropdown?
