Maths & Physics Preparation for ATPL
Hi everyone, I will hopefully be starting my ATPL exams soon with Bristol Ground School and I am just wondering if anyone could give me a heads up on what sort of things will come up on their pre entry maths & physics exams? I'm a bit worried as maths is not my strong point. Cheers!

BBC Bitesize is a good starting point, just general maths and very basic physics. Maths is just arithmetic. Sin and cos is pretty easy as well. I have never studied trigonometry at high school... Nor physics

Stupid Italian minesterial schooling program

Anyway, it's all easy, quite easy.

As mentioned, basic trig. Plane geometry. For future use, start practising mental arithmetic.
