The questions themselves are not that hard, basic math, problem solving some language and spatial awareness. It's the time you are given, which is very little, that makes the test tricky. What you need to do is time yourself doing the test and then try and beat it. Once you have done that (doing the same test over and over is no good because you will get to know the questions), get on the internet and look for IQ tests and do as many of these as possible and more importantly as quickly as possible and see what your score will be then. Ideally you need to aim for 140+. You have to train your brain to think quickly (it is like a muscle after all) and also under pressure, as you are going to be nervous and stressed when you do the test for real, as well as not knowing what the questions are or what format they will be in.


If it all goes wrong though you do have a second chance to improve your score.


Also after the test you will have a final interview, to see if you have the right attitude to be allowed into the service, for instance if you have BNP tattooed across your forehead then I don't think you would have made it past the door. You will need to know a basic idea of what鈥檚 going on in the world, as we are an international organisation, know where British forces are serving around the world (apart from Iraq and Afghanistan obviously), find out what your job will entail in your chosen trade (aircraft avionics). If you don't know the answer to a question don't waffle on just say I鈥檓 afraid I don't have an answer for that right now but I鈥檒l find out and get back to you, or something like. The person asking the questions will already know the answer he/she just wants to see how you handle yourself, whether you just waffle or give a composed decisive answer which will show you have confidence in yourself etc.


It is at the end of the day just a job interview, try not to get too worked up over it, also its ten years since I did my aptitude test but I think the score for aircraft trades is 37+, so get some training in.RAF aptitude test advice/help?
-10 marks maybe all right but you really have to push yourself to get 46/46, so they think you're a real capabability to the RAF!





Still Well done and good luck!
