I doubt it. They will review applications first. They need to check CV, answer to the question, GCSE certificates. No point in them wasting time watching interviews if you don’t meet the criteria.

i also failed on even the SJE. Im a PPL with 180 hours, doing my ATPL theory (haven’t sat exams) and a train driver so don't worry pal. To get rid of people from a multiple choice question test, which answer choice are all very similar, will not define you as a pilot. It’s just a mechanism to get rid of thousands of applicants, a lottery. Go and get your licence, and apply for their competitor virgin Atlantic like i will 🤭 Chin up, carry on. you’ll be fine. If at first you don’t succeed, try and try again 👍

Tests
Hey everyone, I applied on the 19th in the evening. I haven’t yet received any tests or feedback. I am an international citizen but have enquired beforehand about eligibility and received a response that I am welcome to apply as they encourage diversities. I have good GCSE marks and a PPL as well.
Anyone kindly suggest prep material for tests please? THANKS

So I have noticed one of the requirements is 12 months left valid on your passport (at the time of assessment?) I have ~11 months, with the original intention of renewing it in January. Happy to apply for a renewal now if it means meeting this requirement, however unsure when this "Time of assessment" is?

Yh maths is multiple choice. Definetly will need a calculator and get used to using it efficiently. Pages loaded slow so ran out of time. Even the stupid next button took time to load on some questions. Emailed them about it see what happens. Definitely need to revise the speed equation and fuel calculations like gallons if you're going to do the maths test. If you found it hard don't feel bad about it. It's the time that puts pressure more than anything. Plus you have to factor in reading time as well as you don't want to misread the question.

I’ve said before and will say again. Telling people the tests gives them an unfair advantage and like it or not everyone here is competing for a few places. It’s fairly basic GCSE level stuff so just do the tests, you shouldn’t really need to revise for them.
