Too bad you didn't make it. Did they tell you what specifically went wrong?

You always can try another cadet sponsorship. Maybe at SQ or Ka or CX?

Best of luck to you.

Ok, maybe you failed this one, but that does not automatically mean that you will fail all the tests.

I would advise you to try this:

click

It's not much, but you can use it to train. Also, my guess is that a psychomotor test is about hand-eye-foot coordination.

And I do hope that you will be given a evaluation report about the testing. Any normal company should do that.

Hi everyone!

Hey saviour24, I also didn;t make it through the psychomotor test and they also didn't tell me why did I fail the test. In fact my whole batch did not make it through the test.

By the way FlyingDJ, the website u posted, the test actually have to be paid for before one can do it. Do you have any other web site which offers psyhomotor test and which is free?

I think I'll be applying for the second time for MAS cadet PILOT PROGRAMME .

True, but it's a good reference to show and if you pass this, you can use it as fact sheet for the next application.
I do not know any other ones that are free.

I did mine few years ago when it was still calles Compass: Computerized Pilot Aptitude Screening System. Maybe those tests are available somewhere.

Ah yess, but listen, I guess there are more cadet programs in the world? I know that going with the local major carrier is a dream.
I always wanted to join KLM, but went to another facility.

How about the SQ program? Do they allow others than locals?

that is my dream
and that's important to have. I have the dream since i flew for the very first time.
Never give up, thats my motto to. I am struggling to get that first job somewhere .

KA is Dragonair, correct. I think it is an ongoing business there.

Just apply to whatever cadet sposorship or training facility you want to go and see which one wants to take you.

true, thats why the smart people have a backup plan for work. They have a second degree on whatever they did before and maybe have some working experience too.
So in bad aviation times you can always fall back on a former job.

Most of the asian cadet programs get you into that airline, so if you are in, then i guess there are no worries.

If you do the training on your own, get a backup plan and keep the dream alive.

some common sense.
but even if you're in an asian cadet pilot programme..your future is not all bright and safe..who knows you might fail your medical one day and you're left with a hundred thousands ringgit over debt to pay..or you might fail your proficiency check or even ab-initio..

mm yess.. here most of the ab initio's have an insurance which is mandatory by bank loan. If we get ill or medical unfit, the insurance pays the bank for the loan. You don;t have that in malaysia? Loss of licence insurance?

Failing profcheck is different, that depens on yourself. No insurances for that

saviour24, don't give up. That's the way. After submitting my application on March, I finally got a mail today form MAS. I will have my psychomotor test this coming 21st. Can you explain briefly how is the test conducted? And where is this Complex MAS place? Is it the one in Kelana Jaya, where the cabin crew training is held?
