ATPLS

Can anyone remember whether or not you were allowed to have ATPL’s last year??? I read the criteria last year and applied as thought I was eligible?? Were we allowed them or did I read something wrong?

For those who took the test already; were you free to use a calculator throughout?

Hi, the process has changed slightly for this year. The assessments are no longer being automatically accepted/rejected it seems therefore both pass/reject emails have a delay to them.

Hi,

Two Quick Qs

A) have BA (or any of the flight schools) expanded on their allowance during their training (i.e. monetary value)?

B) first round in Sept 23, second round in Apr 24 - does one presume the programme opens again in Sept 24? In their FAQs, mentions "to run scheme every year" - unsure if next round is in Apr 24?

Thanks so much!

I attended one of the calls and they said that rejection emails would also be delayed rather than instant as the September round.

For those who received the maths assessment or rejections, did you receive this notification exactly 1 business day (24 hours) after submitting the SJT assessment?

I have just done the checking test today. Does anyone know if the people who get rejected receive that email straight away?

After the math assessment, if you fail, you should receive a message saying 'rejected'. At least, that's what was written just before I took the test

no? The only thing required from cabin crew was the attestation certificate. Detail checking!

Did the maths test, completely guessed one of the answers as I thought if I have time I’d go back to it, went back and changed the random answer just on a whim, after the test figured out how to work it out and realised that my first random guess was the correct one. I am heartbroken

The maths test was okay. The checking test I did tonight and ran out of time. Was much harder

I had one question left and ran out of time. Did anyone get to the next stage at any point without answering all the questions? Not sure if it counts as an automatic fail or just counts as a wrong answer

On the checking test I did all the questions with 2 seconds to spare. The timer ran out before I could submit the answers. Do you reckon they still would have gone through?
