Cabair skill assessment veterans

I am doing the Cabair skills assessment on Thursday next week (16th Oct), and was wondering if anyone out there who had been through the skills assessment at Cabair could give me some low down?? Is it Pilapt rather than COMPASS? If it is the former, is it like this:

Pilot computer test software: pilot aptitude test, job application, pilot recruitment, pilapt.

this:

PILAPT-Prep - Preparation for real world PILAPT and COMPASS tests

or

pilapt.com

Well aware of the whole "either got it or you haven't" story, just keen to take the risk element out of it if poss. Cheers

Simple

I am currently studying at CABAIR and have done the skills assessment.

My advice is as long as you have a basic concept of maths and physics, GCSE level min, and can use a games console then you will be fine. If I remember rightly its a COMPAS test, but i think its simpler than all of the links you've provided , it tests memory, reaction, maths, physics and the use of rudder pedles and joystick. Hope this was of some help.
