ive applied to do the all london knowledge the thing is i have 3 cautions no convictions just cautions two for drugs class a and class b minor offences about 5 years ago im now 27 and have grown up alot(not looking for sympathy) and the other was common assault about 9 months ago which involved me throwing a ball at my neighbour which i was nicked for still only a caution petty crimes. on the application form it asks if you have any criminal convictions which i havent so ive said no,now im wondering if this is going to go against me which im praying that it wont and if it does is there any chance you can appeal and have a drugs test to prove that youve changed im hoping these silly mistakes doesnt stop me from doing the knowledge as im sick to death of laying bricks after 10 years.
if anyone has any advice it would be much appreiciated or if anyone knows of anyone in the same situation. its been four weeks since i sent off the application and cant stop worrying about it so im looking at another 3 weeks. :sad:

You have answered the question correctly, if they wanted to know about cautions (which I'm surprised they haven't) then they would.

Those cautions will appear on any CRB check you are asked to undertake.

To put yourself out of your misery ring them up and ask.

unless they are sealed, then i would advise you be totally honest with them, i have one criminal offence
(failing to notify) got stung £950 at crown court, not telling them is a criminal offence in its self
