JAA ATPL Theory in Ireland

With the opportunity coming up to sit the 14 writtens for the ATPL in Ireland I was wondering if anyone knows how closely the exams resemble the test bank that BGS has on line. Also, is it closer to version 1 or 2 of the database?

Thanks

Irish ATPL Theory

can any one tell me about the atpl i'm a little confused. Doing the atpl in ireland you have 6 sittings and 4 attemps at each subject.

My question is this, how long is one sitting, one day one week?????

A sitting is basically any number of exams you take in any given exam week, so if you book and take one exam that is one sitting used up if you were mad and had studied very hard you could book and sit all 14 exams in the same exam week so 14 exams one sitting.

Your approved course provder will normally have the subjects broken down into 2, 3 or 4 sections or modules as they like to call them, you will study a few subjects then take those exams when you are ready, that is one sitting.

I did mine in three sittings.
1, Met, P.O.F., M&B
2,GNav, RNav, Instruments, Performance
3, Flight planning, HPL, Ops, Air law, AGK, Vfr & Ifr comms!

Don't look to far ahead it may make you unwell!

Good luck.....

alright so one sitting is an exam week, so you could do five exams one every day in the same week, and that would be counted as one sitting, is that correct.
