Does anybody know the pass mark for the OAA technical/physics test? And how its incorporated into the final marking?

ie. if you pass the compass test with flying colours but then dont do so well in the physics test, would you still go through?
I too am curious as to how this works. On my selection day they said the benchmark would be set once all people had taken the test and that they were looking to bring around 400 back for the next selection day (OAA said this, though not sure if they're bringing 400 in or all the FTOs are bringing that in total). I presume the look at your mark and the marks in each individual round (i.e. you wouldn't want a maths genius in the cockpit with the hand eye coordination of a snake).

There's a thread on the OAA forum about pass marks, though OAA told us the mark would depend on the overall calibre of participants. I suspect the requirement will be far far higher than a usual intake due to the demand for the scheme.

Thread is here if you're interested.
