The descriptor for ESA are more intense than those of PIP full details can be found on this site I am sure but if not goggling descriptors of ESA on the internet should give you the Infomation you need.

    Hi appleton6 Welcome to the Scope community. 
    With my assessment, after they canceled it once and refunded me the travel money it was just a case of getting there and answering their questions. All they ask is questions about your condition and how it affects you. It's easy because it just involves talking about yourself. I will say though bring someone with you to help you even if you don't need them so it looks good on your claim.
