Psychometric Testing
Does anyone have any information or relevant study materials, to help with a Psychometric test conducted at Oxford Aviation on behalf of Bond Helicopters Offshore? Ive tried Oxfords website and the pest.com site but cant open the test pages!!!!!

There is nothing to study! If the tests are administered properly they are trying to assess your personality.
Unless of course you actually mean just the psychometric test (as opposed to the Advanced Compass test), of which both are covered in the day.

There are some test online here which replicate certain sections (apparently harder than the actual compass test) I'm not sure how closely these represent the actual tests...
The only part which is missing is the actual psychometric element of the test. But, as others have already said, there is no way of training for that part. You are either the sort of personality profile that they are looking for or you're not.

Good evening Rotorheads,
This Sycometric thingy would it go better with Red or Rose Wine, you see I cant consentrate until my eyes are all blood shot, is it were they show you ink blots and ask for your comments....or is it finding the next perfect number to fit the existing line...or fitting shapes into other shapes, it would be nice if one of you would explain this to us older not so bolder and out of date older types?

In Norway one of the offshore operator use a shrink called Wingestad. He does some of the tests and interviews in the Norwegian Air Force as well, and from what I am told, are alike in many ways.
