RTFQ!
First time I sat the aptitudes for a Flying Scholarship as a young 16/17 year old, I was a bundle of nerves and though just get on with it, you'll be fine once you've started. And so I jumped in feet first, not realising that the time for the tests didn't include reading the instructions, which you could do as slowly as you wished.
A little while later a kind sqn ldr took me aside and explained I'd flunked the tests but my results were interesting: what people normally pass I'd ballsed up and what people normally fail I'd sailed through. I explained what I'd done and where I thought I'd gone wrong; his advice, we'd like to see you again, but next time read the question properly!
Edited to say just read Bastardeux's reply - seconded.
