Skills assessment. Advice needed!

Hi guys. I am itching to know what the maths and physics skills tests encompass at FTOs such as OAA.Obviously, both subjects are relatively extensive and, despite having a good knowledge of both subjects, I feel as if I should be honing in on specifics. Iam presuming that there are certain topics that crop up in both tests? Can anyone help?

As for the maths, they usually ask fuel calcs.. Speed distance time calcs, generally things like that, I can't remember any specifics for physics apart from being asked about how lift is generated.. But its all multiple choice so don't worry too much, if you don't know the answer, eliminate the ones you know are wrong.

The most challenging think is learning the conversions. Fuel conversions, currency conversions etc. You should be given the conversion rate during the test, so will just need to know how to do a simple conversion. Then if you can do a bit of addition, subtraction, division, long division and multiplication you should be grand.
