[QUOTE=forumname;1035023]It's gonna go like this;

Tech test review guy: "How do you think you did?"

You: "Not sure, says I passed"

Tech rest review guy: "Here's your score, you missed (this many) and got (this percent). Any idea on the areas you may have missed?"

You: (say whatever you want)

Tech test review guy: "Well, here's what you missed, lets go over them"

He'll tell you what you answered, then the right answer. Probably give a you chance to explain how you derived your answer, etc.

Bang, zoom, you'll be out of there and on to the next portion. Don't sweat it. Worry about how you're doing overall, NOT one little aspect of the multi phase process.[/





I am in the current 744 class and interviewed on June 14th. During the technical interview the online technical test was not even mentioned. In fact, I asked him what my score was and he said he didn't know. And after further digging, I found out that the online technical test was not discussed at all during the interviews on the 14th,15th and 16th of June. I can't speak for later interviews though. They seem to change things for the tech interview.

That's cool man, not everybody is going to get the same mileage.

It was that way for my group, some buddies the month before me, some buddies the month before them, as well as some others after me. Seems as if DC8 had the same experience.

But your post above just reinforces what I'm trying to get at. At the stage in the game, PAQ/Resume/Phone screen/tech test/NHPS form are all done and "graded", no changing them now. I'm sure the tech test review is a "graded event" that goes into the overall score for the thumbs up/down. If they don't even go over the test or give a score, that's one LESS thing to stress about.

Is there any good study material online to prepare for groundschool if offered a class?

Just show up ready to give 110%...Atlas 400 course is heavy in systems, and not the easiest course you'll ever take. But there are plenty of opportunities to clear up any shortcomings along the way. You'll be in Miami for 6-7 weeks.

Ground school is 1 week Basic Indoc, 2 weeks of Systems...6 days a week.

Our FCOM (Flight Crew Operating Manual) is the official source. Anything else is just rumor. But in the mean time, try the link below and go to the Questionnaire section on the bottom left of the page...

Awesome... Thank you!

Thank you DC8Driver for all your information and Help.

I did my interview on July 27, so hopefully I will be getting an answer in the next few days. This waiting is a killer!!!!

Some in my group got it on day 13 after the interview, some of us on day 14. The letter was dated about 7 days after the interview.

Coming soon to an Atlas 744 class (maybe even the next one).

InDoc in MIA.

Go home to do all systems ground school via CBT.

Back to MIA for the rest.
