Have to get a train from Cardiff at 9 am to allow for delays on First Great Western!

As i said before, all i can say to help you is that you should relax, as nerves can be your enemy. I dont think anyone will give out information as it wouldnt be fair to the rest of the applicants. Oh, and by relax i mean do whatever suits you, rituals, yoga, stressball squeezing.. whatever, but dont let your nerves condition the way you perform.

i read this in a news article

During the first phase of the assessment process candidates heard several presentations from senior members of Etihad's flight deck crew, as well as undertaking comprehensive personality and English language tests.

Candidates progressing to the second and third phases in April will then take part in more rigorous activities varying from security checks to aptitude and medical examinations.

All tests are designed with statistics in mind, and they have demonstrated what skills and aptitudes pilots should have in order to make a good airman. Having that in mind i could say that every test that will be conducted during the whole process (as they explained during introductions) can be considered an aptitude test. The content of the tests will not be revealed by anyone for obvious reasons, and try not to make any conclusions from when i mention the word aptitude... they will not sit you on a flight simulator to fly a precision approach if thats what you had in mind.

Also, try not to believe most of the rumors out there, we are lucky that the examiners are very straight forward, normal people and will answer any question that you make during the process. They did mention pprune and facebook and it felt like they were actually sorry that they couldn't cope with all the information thirst that all applicants have shown. They simply have no time to explain everything to each applicant. So, again, just relax, and know that this is one of many chances we will have to achieve our goal of becoming a pilot. As always, good luck.

I understand not wanting to reveal the exact content of the tests, I would be the same, but could anyone just tell us if its a pen and paper job or on a computer or both?

Please Bigga, I insist. And sorry that i say it over and over again. I just wouldn't like to see anyone letting out that sort of information. When we came in that room we had no idea how the exames would be, and if someone let you guys know even the slightest detail, it wouldn't be fair to the rest.

Nobody give out detailed info as to be fair to all of us. I haven't even been to an assesment yet !

Michael 443, I have 2 questions,

How many hours was the overall assesment? and where exactly was it located? Was it in an Etihad Office or At the Airport or wah?
