Skywest ATP question.

Does anyone know if Chapter 9, IFR Flights (out of the Gleim) is included in the 50 question ATP test that Skywest gives at the interview? It has a lot of charts and mathematical questions and I believe I heard those are not included. Does anyone know, for certain, if that chapter is included? Also, which chapters should I put my most concentration on? Thank you ahead of time to those who may reply.

my buddy just did the test and from what he said, there are no charts, graphs, or tables in the test,, just straight questions.

That chapter is not on the test, there is other stuff, but I would suggest giving a slight emphasis to the 121 FAR's chapter.

Any questions that involve math or asks you to refer to a figure, don't worry about, they won’t be on the test.

Thanks!!

You guys rock, thanks for the replies. I thought I could skip the chapter but just wanted to make sure.

P.S. I was reading on a gouge that you can got to ASARS at NASA.gov to read about live CRM scenarios but I can not seem to find a link and when I type in ASARS, it does not come up with anything close to that. Does anyone know another way to access live CRM scenarios and see how pilots handled the situations? Thanks!

Focus your energies elsewhere, if you can work well with others, and you know very basic CRM, that portion of the interview should go well. Focus on the ATP written, mechanical aptitudes written, jepp charts/plates, systems of current twin you're flying, and go practice in a SIM a little bit.
