fte assessment
Hey does anyone know if u can use a calculator for all the exams or not, also if there are formulas required for physics question do they give u the formula to work with.
Cheers

Yes you can use a calculator, best to bring your own, However they don't give you equations, as you're supposed to know them. That's also including the maths tests as well.
Hope that helps! and best of luck.

cheers for that,
Do u know if they ask equations others than thoes on the hand out sheet that they give, im just wondering should i start studyin how to find points on a line and the slope of a line and all that stuff. If its only the equations on the sheet ill be pretty ok.
Thanks

@flyingmam254 : Yes they only cover some of the material on the guide they send you. So it's a good idea, to actually gen yourself up on everything! Physics and Maths wise.
@MrBrightside : They select the tests on the PilApt. But there is more info here: http://www.pprune.org/interviews-job...sment-day.html
Hope that helps!

No problem MrBrightside.
If I remember correctly, I wasn't told not to use a calculator for the tests I did. But this was back in May. However you do need to be confident on your equations for the maths & physics.

Hi,
I'm just reading through the 'pre test guidance material', as supplied by FTE.
I appreciate that the maths / physics equations, e.g. area of a circle and ohm's law, are not supplied.
Has anyone encoutered the more unusual equations they mention, e.g. aerodynamics, left drag and desnity (bottom of page 3 in the pdf)?
Also, 'maximum theoretical range of a radio facility' and 'specific gravity' (page 4)?
To my knowledge these are not commonly used GCSE level formulae - will they be supplied or do we need to learn them?
Thanks.

Hi Shorty79,
If I was you I'd gen up on the equations you mentioned as they do occur in the Numerical reasoning! I do also remember a question on wave lengths.. And also pressure!
They however don't give you the equations in the three exams; accept one question, when they have four equations, and you have to say which equation is correct.
Hope that helps.. Good luck!
