I did the assesment 2 years ago, I have heard from friends who have done it that they have ditched the crosshairs test. So just Maths, Verbal Reasoning and TCAS type computer test. It sounds like they have also increased the time limit on the maths test but might be wrong?

I understand they got rid of their old Verbal reasoning test and replaced it with an "easier" one, can anyone confirm if the Maths test is still the same one?

Hi all!

Does anyone know which tests are in effect at the moment?
Which tool is best to prepare? Skytest?

Good Evening Fellas & Females,

Just signed in to echo the sentiments of request directly above regarding Day 1 & beyond.

Can anyone who has already been on this well trodden path give us new hopefuls an insight into what to expect come Day 1 please? The Maths & Verbal reasoning is crystal clear. Just need some concrete clarity into what exactly does the modern CBT assessment entail? (shapes/ILS tracking/Hand info processing? classic skytest profile or?).

Feel free to Pass the Mustard :ok:

Regards

E.M

Stage 1; Maths test, multi choice answers and not too hard. Verbal reasoning, again not too hard, and quite clear cut, just read everything carefully. Finally there is the BA capacity test, which is the TCAS style one with a couple of systems to look after as well.

The classic PILAPT flight director/shapes/numbers isn’t used any more.

Slots available...gogogo

No calculator allowed. But they do provide a pencil and paper.
