Basic trigonometry would be a start.
Not a lot of point doing too much because the exams are based on "The Land of the JAA" and not the real world.
Physics - general gas equation could help.
If you can do basic maths then you shouldnt really have too much trouble.

Good advice above. Learning the gas laws in general, basic electrics, and revise some simple algebra, and trig.
Covering the PPL subject material would help, but it would be a waste of money for you to buy PPL study books. If you can borrow the technical subjects, including navigation, it would be helpful for you.
As a reasonable background to the technical subjects, you might want to consider reading A.C. Kermodes Mecchanics of Flight.
Purchasing the Oxford CD for Met would be a good investment too.

If you know the ppl " trevor thom " books pritty well , then you have a great start . I found myself refereeing back to those books on numerous occasions through the course of my exams as I found alot of the material to be explained better in there than in my atpl notes .
I would also strongly advise purchasing the oxford met cd and start looking throught it streight away , and have a good knowledge of the subject before you even start ..
goodluck ... topgun
