the sudoku is a pretty fun one. To those practicing, when the chart gets bigger and more difficult, remember it’s not necessary to fill the whole game in. Fill in the obvious ones and join up with the row with the missing answer. That’s what I did and was successful.

Does anyone have any solid tips or advice for that game?

Thank you!
what worked for me was doing the cut-e test about 100 times and that trained my brain to instantly recognize what the volume of 6-13 looks like. Repeat repeat repeat

RST and others have reported a second attempt at the assessment.

Good luck to you.

8 sections

Spatial orientation (ndb/rmi in relation to aircraft-its timed for 3 mins)

Reaction speed (click when two shapes match each other)

Deductive logical thinking (sudoku style—which shape should be in which position on the grid)

Monitoring ability(how many dots are moving around in a circle)

Multi-tasking capability (3 tasks at once—-adding/subtracting, determining if shapes are duplicated in a row of other shapes, and a slider like the game asteroids where you avoid objects to prevent a crash)

Auditory comprehension (audio clips of clearance read backs or approach clearances and you have to choose the correct answer from 3 multiple choice options)

Complex control (use your mouse to guide your plane through a series of rotating circles)

Work-related behavior(standard personality test)

I take it the people that send out interview invites are off for the weekend? I completed my online assessment today (Friday at about 3pm EST), so I'm guessing IF I get the interview invite it'll be Monday at the earliest?

Thanks for the help on here. Spent all week prepping for it so if I get the TBNT it'll suck but at least I can say I did my best and I'll try again in 6 months.

Monday is a holiday so I doubt you'll hear anything then.

Awesome! Thanks for the information. I've been practicing all day. Trying to figure out where my focus should be.

I truly appreciate it!

Awesome, thanks! Finally, did the practice psychology test the same style/format as the real assessment?

The Cut-E is:

Disagree. Neutral Agree
O O o o o O O

I did the practice and was told I’m a Consul Personality. The overview doesn’t sound bad. I’m not the shy quite type lol 🤷🏻‍♂️

I answered neutral to a couple questions, but most were either the 2nd circle from Agree/Disagree or the small circle (closest to Neutral).

I only clicked the far BIG circle on Agree or Disagree a couple times. Not sure if that helps you not paint yourself into a corner?

It’s completely different. There will be two questions and you have to pick the one that you agree more with.
You can slightly agree, agree, or strongly agree.

No. Psychology is not the same. It will have two statements side by side from which you then have to choose which to answer:
1. I sympathize with people who are worse off than me….strong agree, agree, slightly agree
2. I work hard to achieve what I set out to do to make sure I succeed…..strong agree, agree, slightly
agree.

Reaction speed: The matching shapes is very easy. Don’t spend any extra time practicing.

The multi tasking is slightly different. Hold down the mouse button while moving the airplane to avoid the obstacles/line up with runway and keep it held while you are solving the other 2 things. Release after solving. The obstacles/runway goes slower when you keep the mouse held after aircraft is in place.

The monitoring ability/moving dots in circle is harder than cut-e. I would practice on hard for a while.

Spatial orientation. Easy: which way is the aircraft flying? Then looking at the screen, the station is off my:
1. front left wing
2. straight ahead
3. Front right wing
4. right wing
5. back right wing
6. directly behind
7. Back left wing
8. left wing

Deductive reasoning: Soduko
practice hard soduko/hard cut-e for a while until you can do it when there are only 2 of any of the 5 rows/columns filled in. Pretty difficult IMO.

Complex control/tunnel obstacles - Its exactly like the AA skills test. I would go to pilot credentials using a different email/ATP after practicing on cut-e medium or hard. I think it was easier than cut-e. Know how to speed up/slow down using f or d.

Auditory comprehension: 18 clearances from across the world. Tail # is always the same, airport is not really that important. Copy down the
-QNH
-Runway
-wind
-initial altitude and alt after 10 minutes
-descend and maintain
-traffic at 1,2,7 etc o’clock
-turn heading 310, etc,
-join localizer

Some are clearances, some are ATC instructions. Copy the #’s mainly. That will be what’s different on the multiple choice answers. Have good speakers, but not difficult.

I felt it was more difficult than the cut-e but it was fine. Suduko, monitoring and multitasking are really the only ones to practice a lot on hard. YMMV
