Hey, after taking one of these tests i can say it was at GCSE Level, which is 15-16 Year Old Level as i dont know what you call this level in Italy?

The test covered a wide selection of maths, but in most cases they was pretty simple in terms of working out, as long as you knew the formulas for different maths problems.

and there was also the usual word problems, like if a car travels at x speed for n time and then speeds up to x1 for n1 minutes, how far has the car gone?

Just an example, there aviation related but all was relative to calculating distance or arrival times and i think there was an speed one too. All pretty basic, especially compared to the math in thr ATPL that i have been looking at...
