havox Posted April 3, 2018 Report Share Posted April 3, 2018 Did my medical March 16, hoping to hear back from them soon My recruiter said you only hear back from Medisys if you fail your medical or if something came up. So I guess no news is good news applies here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkyboodah Posted April 3, 2018 Report Share Posted April 3, 2018 Hey, I did my medical on Feb.20, but had a setback, I had to be reassessed by my family doctor due to high blood pressure. I was cleared by my doctor and now taking antibiotics to lower my blood pressure. I was notified two weeks ago that my medical file was sent to MTO and TTC, and now waiting for confirmation. My question is, does MTO have a different guideline to pass medical or is it a forgone conclusion and just playing the waiting game for documentation.

Max3031 Posted April 5, 2018 Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 I think the best advice I have for people who are waiting for documentation calls or training date calls is to just send an email to the recruiter you were assigned to. That's what they're there for, to help you through the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did so, and my recruitment rep explained the process and waiting periods at different stages 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havox Posted April 5, 2018 Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 Yeah. For the documentation stage they just basically say "it's out of TTC hands because the medical stuff has to be processed by the MTO and Medisys, etc etc." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m excited and super nervous because I know the expectation surrounding safety I’m happy it’s Mount Dennis as it is closer to home so thank goodness. I’m still scared of the dreaded day 16 test because I would like the opportunity to really practice those alternate turns as well I’m worried about pedestrians doing something random on my test day despite the scanning and practice I put in. Those are my real worries. I enjoy the education part but I’m terrified about the testing on the road not sure how reasonable they are given the challenges today with jay walkers and what not. Also other drivers being careless or a hard braking due to the circumstance. I hope they are reasonable. I can’t wait to join the Mount Dennis team. Hopefully we meet at some point. What are shifts like ? I hear it’s brand new division but you scared me when you said Tough routes? Please fill me in. As for the others congratulations and I’m excited to start training April 2nd 2018. Hey yeah I live reasonably close to Mount Dennis. I know they said though it’s based on need but worth a call. See what HR says could be. Mix up. I would like to know this as well. You will have a lot of time to practice before day 16. For your MTO written test they are going to prepare you so much that you'll pass it with flying colors. Who's your instructor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m training with Debbie at Mount Dennis tomorrow. Just worried about the driving test. What are some best practices and how was the route ? How difficult is the driving portion as I just want to ensure I’m successful. Thanks again and congratulations job well done : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was the instructor for a friend of mine that passed last week. She was also the instructor that tested me on my day 25 driving test. You are in good hands! She will prep you with everything you need to know to successfully pass all the test while in training. Just take everyday day by day and one test at a time. You will be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
