Used to be like that. Not so much anymore. You have to come ready now.

Disregard, it's probably a penis envy thing.

My training can beat up your training.

Probably didn't get picked up haha

Everyone please stop freaking out. The oral is based on the study guide they give you. Learn that guide and you're all set. They can only ask you questions from that study guide and your limitations.

compartmentalize, compartmentalize, compartmentalize - just like the training modules - they evaluate on that particular module.

Incorrect. The question bank is a start point. If a weak area is noted, the examiner asks additional questions, not necessarily from the bank until he is satisfied with the students knowledge.

People typically don't have much trouble with the oral, it's the sim from where the majority of unsats come.

I was down there not too long ago. And the questions they can ask still have to come from the study guide. That's what I was told. So 2 questions per system and let's say I miss one then they can ask up to seven question from that section.

While the questions they ask tend to come from the study guide, I would think that all of AOM 1 & AOM 2, as well as FM1 are fair game. It doesn't say in the study guide that we aren't allowed to carry a backpack, but he asked it, and I knew that it was in FM1. I was also asked questions about the radar that weren't in the guide, and that's why it's a guide and not an overriding document.

The fm1 stuff yes. But not the AOM1 and 2. I actually asked the APD.
