AT-SAT test today...

mpv broker · September 18th, 2007, 19:22

Wow, I dont think i answered one question after the letter factory right at all, every time I felt like the questions were coming up I made sure I took a good look at everything and still had no clue.
I felt like the sim portion went from really easy and fun to planes crashing all over...
I dont feel like I passed, not even close!
I spent some time talking to one of the test procotors about starting the career, didnt really give me much confindence even if I passed.

I'm SURE you did fine. I don't know one person who walked outta there with a 'good' feeling like they dominated that test. But, the worst score I heard was an 81% -- I think you'll be suprised by the outcome.

Yeah, I crashed my share of planes. I also guessed on the majority of those questions - as it sounds you did. When I was at the academy in OKC they have you RETAKE the AT-SAT for 'research' purposes. Guess what, they give you the score immediately! Yeah, those proctors had the scores too (although they don't tell you that - least that's what our proctor said when at OKC). She also said the math and experience survey are weighed quite heaviliy.

93% on first test - 97% at OKC.

Enroute trainig is loaaaaads of fun...

and this is the typical feeling on PV day

Take a deep breath - you'll get your results and be pleasently suprised. Then comes the tough part...how badly do you want this job?

Yea, I had a feeling that my proctor was writting scores down after each section...
Now comes the waiting on the score to decide... is this something I want to pursue, or will be able to pursue!

Well the test, as soon as you're done with the last section, automatically calculates your score. The fact that you have to wait 7-10 days for the results is simply standard operating procedure for the good ol' FAA. It doesn't make sense, but neither does the VAST majority of their decisions.

First test 99.6 took it on June 4th. Waiting on my class date for OKC to see how the next one goes

Just like everyone else, I thought I had failed miserably too. I thought I had no shot at all. I wound up getting a "Well Qualified" score and interview next week for ZID.

Svirf · September 20th, 2007, 13:01

I am still waiting to take the test in Houston. Anyone else out there planning on taking the test in Houston?

I just took my test today and I don't think I did too well either. Math is not my strongest subject so I struggled on that section the most. The Scenarios wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Although I did crash like 2 or 3 planes. The person giving the test said that one lady crashed like 10 planes but she still ended up getting a 97% in the end. So I guess the Scenarios section doesn't count that much towards your total score. I'm thinking the Math section probably is worth the most points. But overall, I too walked out of the room not feeling that confident about how I did on the test. I guess all I can do is wait and hope for the best

. Congrats to all who passed and Good Luck to those who are taking the test soon

I also just took mine on 9/17. I felt horrible afterwards. I wasn't worried going in, I flew threw the test in about 3.5 hours or so with a lunch break, and then sat back afterwards and wondered why that didn't seem so bad. I then started thinking that I must have really screwed things up if they give you 8 hours to deal with it. I also crashed 3 planes, but the proctor said that was below average and said that math was more important that a few lost planes. I really felt like my answers to the letter factory were like a game of eenie meenie minie mo.

I did pass, well qualified and all. So check your scores often. Mine was posted on 9/19, just 2 days later. I haven't heard of a person who didn't come out of there at least questioning themselves on passing or failing.

mpv broker · September 25th, 2007, 12:31

Does anyone know what you need to be well qualified?
On the website i just got my score but I wasnt told if I was qualified or well qualified...

msp_belle · September 25th, 2007, 15:42

I believe that is 85% and higher.
