That's interviews for you.

There are lot of examples of technical interview questions in this thread.

Also, just like what the previous users posted, stick to what you know but to the best of your ability, at your level, and a little bit more.

I didn't get to reach the technical part of the interview, if there was one in Stage 1b but an example of using "mental maths" that first pops into my head, that I found in this whole thread, is:

If you're at an altitude of 33,000 ft and you're descending at a rate of 3,000 ft per minute, how long will it take you to reach MSL?

It's just a math/physics question in an aviation context and then I'm pretty sure they'll add a few more words to confuse you. I'm pretty sure this is way too simple and there are relatively harder questions in this thread. Then again, add the stares of the interviewers waiting for your answer and the stress builds and before you know it, you forgot how to divide and doubting yourself if it's the correct answer. lol.

Ahh. Good luck. When's your stage 2? How did your initial stages go?
