Hi everyone, I have just received the date for my NATS test day-April 19 05. Does anyone else find the cube examples difficult? or is it just me! Any useful tips for this, or the rest of the day would be very much appreciated. I am busy battling through puzzle books and testing books as we speak! :confused:

Hi Steffi,

There's a load of information on the first test day on this site if you do a search.

As far as I know, you get split up into groups and rotate around, doing at different times the knowledge and motivation test, maths and spatial awareness, psychometric test and then have some time with an ATCO who will try to answer any questions and show you a few videos.

On that note, I'll be the ATCO there on the 19th (if you are doing the day in London); so be gentle, it's my first time! :ok:

Hi there!

I have completed my application and been invited to a selection day! Unfortunately i can't make the selection day in Manchester in April - due to current work commitments:mad:

Anyway i can see that there is a reference to cube examples:confused:

Can you please tell me where to get details and examples of how to prepare for the selection:ok:

Would be very grateful

Good luck to all you guys and gals sitting the selection:ok:

BOZZ,

At the top of this forum there's a 'sticky', 'Got a NATS interview?? Read here first'. Surprisingly enough, it's all in there!

Regards, ADIS;)

Just realised I'm going to be there on the 18th too, so I'll see you there, babyken!

So Gonzo, I think you'll need that luck trapped in the same room as all that enthusiasm and eager to pleasedness ;)

I guess I put across the right image for an ATCO....a twenty six year old who's lost most of his hair!!!! :}
