But I heard they are only conducting the week for one week.

[Stallone]

1. u heard from who?

2. what do u mean by "week for one week"?

[sgcloudchaser]

sorry, i meant to conduct the assessment only that very week. i was told by the OAA training adviser.

[Stallone]

but the application only closes on 31st Jan, next week can't be the only week.

I was very very concerned when the email from OAA stated that I "should review my Physics and Maths skills". After all, I did my O levels 15 years ago, and have not done anything related to this since.

I checked the website again OAA.com - Oxford Aviation Academy
and it stated that "Potential candidates need not be concerned that lack of flying experience or limited academic achievement will necessarily prejudice their prospects of success."

I hope that I still have a chance compared to the newly minted engineering grads

[Stallone]

haha.. don't have to worry much

O levels maths and physics should not be that hard..

F = MA
V = IR
W.d = FxD
acc = dv/dt
Speed Velocity Distance Time

Pythagoras theorem
TOA, CAH, SOH
Angles, Algebra, Curve Equations, Graph Interpretation

guess it won't be overly technical, but you've got to be fast when handling the questions

24qns in 20min, can you handle that?

[cancan7]

thanks for the formulae...

it's not hard... when I was 16

I'm revising my Physics this weekend... but the maths... gotta ask my colleagues on Mon

Thanks again Stallone!

[haliflex]

hi cancan7, i will also be going for the assessment on tuesday

[antony.s]

Did you already check skytest software for middle east carriers which contains the compass modules (also part at oxford). The mathematics module contains almost the same tasks you have to know for the maths and physics test (speed, climbing, overtakes...)

[cancan7]

great! Mine starts at 0800. I've to wake up really early AND take a cab. What time is yours?

[haliflex]

oh.... mine is at 10.45am, so i guess i will see u there!

[dagger19]

for ppl who goes Day 1 on tuesday, when did u receive the email?

[cancan7]

I received the notification email on 11 Jan

[dagger19]

cancan7

thanks. Im still waiting for mine. all the best to you tm.
btw, do you remember when you applied?
just want to check if mine is still in the process or has already been reviewed and rejected.

[cancan7]

dagger19,

I can't remember the exact date but I think it was around 20-23 Dec 2010. All the best to your application. I'm sure you'll be called up soon.

[dagger19]

you can check from the confirmation email they sent.

i applied on 20th dec. hmmm... trying to be hopeful.

[cancan7]

I couldn't see the application date from the email they sent.

Don't lose hope Dagger. I'm already 31, and running out of time. This will probably be my last shot, against so much competition. I'm hoping for the best myself

[dagger19]

just see when they send you the confirmation email? should be on the same day u applied?
anyway good luck to you, do update us on your process. =)

[cancan7]

I received the confirmation email a few weeks after I applied. I forgot about the online application to be honest! I wasn't expecting to be called up(been rejected too many times by SIA...)

Thanks. And I wish you and those going for the assessment all the best in their quest to fly. May the best people get selected!

8am? whao... thats REALLY early.
