It would be interesting to know what score counts as the divide between high and low as the RAF have been known to change the pass mark based on number requirements.
When applying for the uni air squardon I took the full RAF tests and just failed but I achieved a high enough grade to get into the squadron. I have had no problems with the flying training and have achieved high marks on my flying.
Aptitude tests are only 40% accurate and do not take into account your actual ability to work in the cockpit environment which is totaly different to sitting infront of a computer screen with a joystick.
Hopefully when I go for my bursary I will PASS these tests as thats all you need to do, the RAF dont have high or low scores so im interested in why GAPAN have high or low scores. Just a thought.
