This is important, because if there is a problem that uses a time that is less than an hour, you should use the appropriate decimal.

My problem from earlier.

D = R x T

? = 320 x .25 (15 minutes is one quarter of an hour)

80 = 320 x .25

I hate to spell it out so simply, I know you guys aren't dumb, but getting a strong hold on these questions is important.

no not dumb but realy rusty been some years no i take care of patients in hyperbaric chambers dont need no math for that ant cant rember much any way so thanks for your help

Well since we are asking questions about the math part, I've got one..

the questions that ask:

plane X(300mph) and plane Y(500mph) pass each other going opposite directions. After 15 minutes how far apart will they be?

what the H?!? d= [(300) x (.25)] + [(500) x (.25)] ?? So is the anwer: 200? or am I way off?

I can't do these very easily in my head. The math part isn't timed per question, is it?
If you can't tell, I am testing on Monday and am starting to freak out a little!!

That's exactly how you do that problem. Find the distance of one plane from the meeting point after 15 minutes and add the distance that the other plane will be at. 75+125=200.

I took my AT-SAT test in Arlington TX on March 7 and still haven't received my scores back. I've been checking the ASAP page constantly for the last couple of weeks and just checked a couple of minutes ago. Is there anyone else in the same position as I am? Is there anyone else that took the test in Arlington? and have you received your test scores back yet?

Thanks Stinger- I hate to admit this but I minored in math, but that was a few years ago and I mix up a lot of the basics. The "pregnancy-brain" doesn't help either!

Zucknr, I took my test the same day as you, but in ATL. I received my results on March 18th. Go to the user information tab and then click on test information, it will be there if it is posted. I have heard some people waiting up to 14 days to get results.

zucknr · March 21st, 2008, 11:22

thanks for the information squirell88. Its been frustrating waiting and waiting for the past couple of weeks but I guess that is all that I can do. i called the Aviation Careers division of the FAA twice this week and they said that they still haven't received my scores.

SQuirell88 · March 21st, 2008, 11:38

Hey zuck if you talk to them again, ask them when the central and western divisions will be meeting again to pull applications for their divisions.

I took the test in Arlington on 3/3. I got my scores back this past Mon. 3/17 around 4 pm CST. Maybe you'll get them today.

Justin538 · March 21st, 2008, 14:46

I heard the next pull will be for june.

FedererFan · March 21st, 2008, 16:06

Took the test this Tuesday and received it today jsut afew minutes ago. 91.7

What is the next step? Someone said I'll receive a referral list? Is that where I pick my top preference areas or what? Not sure what step is next but IM EXCITED TO SAY THE LEAST!

JKoffler44 · March 21st, 2008, 16:12

I took the test on Wednesday, and got the score today. I am a bit disappointed though. I thought I had in the 90s, my score was 82...

FedererFan · March 21st, 2008, 16:38

hey man your passing its all good. What is suppose to be the next step after the test though?

kcarpentier · March 21st, 2008, 16:40

Wait for them to contact you to go to a PEPC. Patience is a good thing in this process.

lilterro · March 21st, 2008, 20:27

I took my test in ATL last Friday and got my scores back today. I got a whopping 85.9. I was hoping for at least a 90 but I kind of bummed some questions and the beginning of the angles section and got stuck on a couple of math questions buts its all good. Anyone know what scores are considered well qualified and just qualified? And also during the selection process for the interview do they group the well-qualified applicants together and qualified together and choose from that or go from highest score to lowest. I doubt they do but trying to give myself a little hope. Do you all think I have a chance of getting in with that score?

JKoffler44 · March 21st, 2008, 20:34

70-84.9 is qualified
85-100 is well-qualified
At least you made it to well-qualified!

kp52 · March 22nd, 2008, 09:50

I took the test on monday 3/17 and got my score back on 3/21. I received a 99.9. I didn't think it was that hard, but I didn't think I was going to do that well because of the simulator. But every other section I did well on. I didn't use a study guide or anything.

Dutch · March 22nd, 2008, 18:14

I took the test on 3/3 here in Seattle and received the results exactly 10 business days later. Overall I felt the test went smoothly, though I was pressed for time during the analogy section, and ended up having to fill in the last 10 questions with only 1 min left. In our room of 15, I was second to last done (took plenty of breaks between sections) but scored 95.7. So perhaps going slow was to my benefit.

wve_iii · March 23rd, 2008, 01:40

Took test 3/20 in arlington, tx received results next day 3/21. I got a "100" woo hoo. But still hoping to get selected. Ive heard alot of people saying that score really doesnt matter. I know there will be a PEPC in DFW sometime in April so I hope I have a chance for that one.

I found this paper by the FAA in May 2007 within it it does state the "well qualified" canididates will be offered employment before "qualified" ones. So if some people scored high and werent offered a job I assume it was due to other factors.

GlideSlope · March 24th, 2008, 14:18

I am very thankful for my 82

BadPassportPhoto · March 24th, 2008, 15:16

Do the directions on that ATSAT explain how to do each test portion? I have the new "green book" and have been using the cd as preparation, but there's no instructions on what to do with each test part. So I don't know how to go about the Letter box factory or the ATST part (planes flying all over the place at various speeds). Also, if anyone knows how to do these on the software cd I mentioned, that'd be helpful!

When you start the program, click on the help option. This will give you instructions. Have you downloaded the update yet?
The actual test gives you very detailed instructions. Most of which are the same on the green book's cd.

It seems that every one who has posted their AT-SAT Scores has received a passing score, but has anyone NOT received a 70 or better? Seems there are a lot of people passing, but just wondering how many, (if any) haven't?

Took the test last week in OKC and results took 2 business days...PASSING, WOO HOO

sandman9r · March 24th, 2008, 20:22

How is it that you all do so well with that math section? Granted, I know the questions aren't brain teasers but even practicing with the green book, I still need scratch paper.

I take the test on Wednesday and I'm a bit concerned that my math skills will heavily drag down my score.
