Anyone else not heard back? I applied at the very end of October and haven't heard a peep. I've also applied very early in the last two years prior, and shortly after submitting was rejected, so maybe the fact it's taken this long means there's some hope?

    Hi, I got my VI invite yesterday and was wondering if people had any tips? Are there any curveball questions? Is it difficult? Quite nervous :(
    Hi Melissa, I'm in the same position and have just received mine. Was wondering if you had any tips or could pass on any warnings if there were any curveballs as you say! Thank you!
