The level-spacing distribution of consecutive energy eigenvalues is calculated numerically at the metal insulator transition for 3d systems with different cuboid shapes. It is found that the scale independent critical $P_c(s)$ changes as a function of the aspect ratio of the samples while the critical disorder $W_c/V=16.4$ remains the same. We use our data to test whether an expression for the small-$s$ behaviour of the level statistics proposed by Kravtsov and Mirlin for the metallic regime is applicable also at the critical point. For this reason, a shape dependent dimensionless critical conductance $g_c$ has been extracted from the small-$s$ behaviour of the critical level statistics. Our result for a cubic sample, $g_c=0.112\pm 0.005$, is in good agreement with a value obtained previously from calculations using the Kubo-formula.
