Talking

BTW- if anybody has an August class date, shoot me a private message. Would be nice to get in touch and discuss crashpad, hotel options.

It's more than common aviation knowledge, it's a lot of definition based and formula based stuff that you need to be pretty brushed up on prior.

Edited:

I'm not actually sure how it is scored. I don't know that each test is scored individually... I have heard many times and perhaps even in the interview it was relayed to me that there is some cumulative score. A computer prints out a piece of paper when you hit submit at the end, and it says right then and there whether you P/F. No good answer there.
These tests were put in place because of the Delta flow right? I wonder if they will change the interview process seeing as the flow is gone?

Doubt it. Expressjet uses them too and they've never had a flow.

Ya it seems like from reading the gouge that the ExpressJet test and Compass test are the same.

Does Compass usually take a break during the holidays as far as classes go? Maybe 3 instead of 4 in November and 2 in December? And fire everything back up after the new year?

In the past, yes, but this time could be different

Default Class Date

I have a start date of August 15th... Let me know when yours is... after the 30 day home study when we come in for the week long course I may be able to work something out for a person(s) to stay cheaply but I'm about 45 minutes from the training center...
