A320 Type rated pilots exam indigo airlines

I am a type rated a320 pilot and have to give the technical exam for indigo airlines for freshers...I got a call from the lady Varsha(from indigo), and she told me the exam is on 26th august. She told me they are asking about a320 systems,performance and even general navigation. Can someone please help me out n tell me what all do they ask in general navigation and performance. Because earlier they only asked about a320 systems, but now they are also asking about general navigation and performance and im really worried about what to study...some one plsss let me know..
thanks

just got it confirmed that 60 mark will be A320 tech and 40 marks will be from Met, HF and Regs....It has become a bit tougher now...
@naughtyjay, are these rated exams going to happen for all the coming year, as indigo has hired a lot of FO recently...

Hi Guys ...So where would be a good place to do your A320 type rating and any ideas as to when would be the ideal time to do it . When do u think Indigo & Go Air are going o start hiring again .
God know's only when and if it comes then when.
Indigo is hiring & will hire about 200 odd pilot's mix with rated/non rated for immediate operations.....
Goair recently had a advert for 30 rated pilots and they took 5-8 rated pilots in start of this year.So they might come with few more....

Going for rating this time is big RISK when number of non rated pilot's getting job in Indigo is higher than rated ones....plus exam for rated 320 pilot's is hard than CAE's exam.

A320 related was just technical stuff. No aerodynamics or performance.
But the attempt on 26th will be technical, performance, cpl, HF...
