How well does the Bristol bank represent these subjects?
Air law,
Operational procedures,
General navigation,
Radio navigation,
Planning and monitoring,
PERFORMANCE,
Mass & balance
Anyone ??? :D
Also I´ve heard of some huge number of people failing the Performance exam last two months, why ??? I thought performance should be one of the easiest subjects.
I'd say Bristol GS questions closely represent the real thing. If a student religiously work on the practice questions, (s)he could easily spot 'new' questions in the real exams. You've seen 99% of the questions before and the new ones just stick out like a sore thumb
Those statistics are not particularly reliable....2 bad months for Performance is probably just fluke...but if a 3rd bad month comes up, maybe the CAA is actaully doing something about it.
Otherwise, if you simply keep doing practice questions, I think you'd be alright.
Gangi þér vel!
In the Feb exam they threw a lot of graph questions in, 2 or 3 more than usual and I think it just threw a lot of people out - me included, though I did manage to scrape it.
As MWL says, keep going over the questions again and again (regardless of what a lot of people on here say, its a method that'll pass the exams) and you will definitely see them in the exam and you won't have a problem.
Fantasticly well I would say, they managed an 88% for me in Perf and I am crap at exams. The mixture of the brush up feedback and the online database proved an excellent combination(along with super instruction and notes) . In fact some exact questions cropped up in the exam which was nice.

The brush up and feedback very closely replicate what you will be required to do in the exam room, for all the subjects you've listed.
Feb perf was a bugger, think the averages were even lower for other schools than for Bristol, but I still reckon we'd seen similar questions before, Cheers Colin.
