These are solid scores. I’m sitting on 7/8/7 right now too. Last board you weren’t taken unless you had 9s. The board prior to that one, you would’ve had a very solid chance. Nobody knows when things will be back to “normal” but the October board proved that they do in fact know about the backup and over selection issue they created.
How many boards a year are there usually? My OR talked about one in April I'll probably miss out on but then he mentioned a July one as well.
Theres one in July and then one in October
April is the submission for the May board. One in July, and October as well
From what I remember it was just like the ASTB App UAV portion except that the voice in ur headphone tell you which direction
Did you find it easier with the hearing which direction the building is instead of looking at it like on the app?
Tbh it caught me off guard since I wasnt as prepared as I should have been. Before hand I Never practicd with the paper compass trick. On the test I decided to use the compass and it threw me off my game.
Gotcha, that makes sense. I never use the compass trick when I practice and I can get around 1.5 sec average reaction time but I have a system where I look at the direction it ask before I look at the UAV so I don't know how Ill do on the test.
There’s barons text book which is OK, better than nothing type of situation and Kyle’s study guide. You can search for both of those on here. Everyone has a different study plan. The test is adaptive and is graded on a bell curve. The better you do, the harder the questions get. It’s really up to you todo the research and figure out what you are lacking in and need to study. So like most on here have already done, I’m punting to you to do your own looking/research
The first thing you need to do and I mean the VERY first thing is go talk to an OR, your 40% rating is more than likely a show stopper. I have never seen anyone with a VA rating of 30% or higher get back in.
The TBAS practice software has a UAV portion that uses a voice that tells you which direction to find. I think that resembles the ASTB uav section a bit more closely.
The throttle takes a little bit more force than the thrustmaster. However there is a knob on the side that you can adjust, I keep mine all the way loosened to make it easier to manipulate.
