I think that sounds great but who knows the performance standards, I am sure there is a minimum baseline for passing but I believe (from what I have read anyway) it comes down to improvement as well, making sure that your last score is better than first.
I am sure you have to get X out of Y but ultimately I think what also comes in to it is can you take on new information and learn from it, best of luck anyway!

Thanks Tubeflyer!
Not yet, I just received an email yesterday asking a few simple questions and that they will be in contact this week with course details. I'm assuming thats where I'll be able to find that out, id prefer to do my ground school in Southampton.

Not at all, to be honest from what I've seen it's not worth the paper it's written on. The cynic in me says the real reason for it's introduction was to obtain access to student funding for the course.

The "degree" will give you no advantage over others in terms of getting a job at the end of training. As the above poster mentions, the only reason people do it is to gain access to student loan finance, which you otherwise cannot get.

Ive read that an iPad is necessary for training... Are Macbooks also acceptable or is it just iPads, if both which would be better?
Also what sort of software is used on either? Is there a dedicated app for ground school learning?

Any Macbook with Maverick OS or newer. iPad with a fairly new OS works too, just down to personal preference. Its an app, which will have the majority of your ATPL learning material. Easier than giving you a ton of books.

Hey everyone!
Anyone on the course starting in early October?
I realise it is 6 months away and there is no CPxxx assigned to it, but would like to get to know my coursemates sooner rather than later.
Cheers

Hello,
Does anyone know how is the current situation of the Flexicrew pool? I have heard from someone doing it that almost everybody is getting an invitation for a selection day with easyJet.
Is there anyone going for the assesment day the 9th of May?

Direct info on numbers in the pool is not common knowledge, as CTC don't publish it. Having said that, assuming one meets the criteria for easyJet then it's really not a long wait to get an assessment just now. I believe it's been in the region of 1-2 months wait for an assessment for most people finishing so far this year-and some have had less than that! If one doesn't meet the EJ criteria then things will take a little longer.
