Smile Advanced COMPASS test; Aptitude Exam

I will be taking the advanced COMPASS test in a few days, and just wanted some clarification and advice with it.

As I have searched online, what is likely to be included will be:
- Hand-Eye Coordination Test (Flight Director)
- Math Test
- Short Term Memory Test
- Multitasking
- Spatial Orientation Test

I just have some questions regarding it:
1) Would you know if there will be a segment of ATPL Questions?
2) Can you give any advice and technique with the short term memory test? 4 items will be included (Frequency, Altitude, Speed, and Heading), and it is a bit difficult to memorize them 4. I have read elsewhere the advice to write them down but I am not too sure if that is allowed since it is a memory test.
3) Did I miss to include anything from the list above?

Thank you very much for the feedback!

Hey,
Did you take the test?
I have to do it for an interview with an airline and I am not sure if we can take notes during the short-term memory segment as I find it super hard to memorize all 4 numbers in that 5-7 seconds
