I think for verbal reasoning it’s much easier if you read the question first then search the text for the answer rather than trying to memorise it all for when u read the question
Hi guys, I’m also an applicant in the process of joining the Royal Air Force. I’ll be covering the entire application process on my channel too, which I think may interest some of you. I posted my first video regarding the DAA, and I’d appreciate it if you could let me know if it has been helpful. Thank you, Vivek
Hey Saul, I really understand. I went through that exact same feeling. I would say, just take some notes with you and revise just before you enter, so that the information is fresh in your head. Don't panic and answer as many questions as you can. You'll make it through. ALL THE BEST FOR YOUR RAF CAREER. Also make sure you know the technical terms and keywords, especially for electrical and mechanical. If you need some encouragement, here's a video that might help, ruclips.net/video/rcFKiCQ30og/видео.html GOOD LUCK AND DREAM BIG.
brilliant video, very well explained and detailed. I have got my AST booked in on the 26th August, so just preparing for that. could I ask what role you are going for?
Hi Amir, thank you for the feedback. My role was actually undecided since the photographer role got taken off. I had taken my AST but didn't meet the score for some roles. The roles I qualified for didn't suit me, so I had taken my pursuit else where. I wish you all the best for your AST in August, you've got time, so make sure you do plenty of mock tests. Try and get as many questions right as you can to bump your average. Don't spend too much time on one question. Take care and good luck. My next video ill be talking about fitness prep and avoiding injuries if you're interested. GOOD LUCK.
@@buildmentalgrit5329 Great, thank you very much! I'm going for the Regiment Gunner role as I have been wanting to be a Regiment gunner for 3 years now. A fitness prep video would be a good idea also :)
@@vxprn_ That's awesome, all the very best. From what I was told, the Regiment Gunner AST score needs to be 40 or above. It's not too difficult to attain, but just make sure you prepare.
I’m planning on joining the RAF Regiment, I applied a few years ago but failed the AST by a few marks, maths really is my weak point, on the practice test online what would be considered a pass mark for RAF Reg ?
Hey Jack, the practice online test on the RAF website, in my opinion, is way easier than the actual test. I'm sorry, you failed the first time, but just try again and you'll get it, provided you prepare well enough. after my test, I was told the pass mark was 40 RAF Regiment (gunner).
@@buildmentalgrit5329 hey hope all is well, just an update I passed my airmen selection test back in May, it’s been a slow process for me being ex forces, but I have my medical next week then PGSC
Hello I was wondering if tomorrow once you have done your test I could get some tips as mine is on Wednesday and this would help me a lot, good luck on your test I’m sure you’ll do well.
Hi mate The RAF doesn't give specific scoring details, I sat my ast in July and it's all marked on an iPad and your scores are generated. You'll get a list of all roles you score for, my advice to you is do your best and get the highest score possible More score = more choice = no dissapointment
@@brh9262 sat the ast a week or two ago, very challenging and I didn’t score high enough for any roles, got the resit in a few weeks going get as much maths practice as I can in do get the score for the role I want 👍🏻
I had the Ipad version too, I spent way too much time in the verbal. Yes you get the score of the roles at the end, the minimum was 40 i think, below that you wouldn't qualify for any role in the RAF, according to what my AFCO said at the end. You're right about choice, but other factors such as GCSE's also matter for certain roles.
@@EFCtalk all the best to you mate I found the ast difficult, but an hour or two per day on different topics saw me pass with a very good score With time and dedication you will make it, bitesize GCSE maths was all I used for the maths and that was enough
I hope this video was insightful, wishing you all the best for your AST whenever it may be.
What role did you apply for and do you know or remember how many marks do you need for an raf pilot
I think for verbal reasoning it’s much easier if you read the question first then search the text for the answer rather than trying to memorise it all for when u read the question
I found that with the practise test
It's people like you that makes the world a bit easier
So much respect for this video dude. Was really insightful & the link are appreciated
Thank you Will, much appreciated. I'm glad it helps.

@@buildmentalgrit5329 do you what score you need to be a logistics driver
What role were u given after the test?
I personally didn't end up joining, but the roles are based on the score you get (if it still works that way).

What’s the score for weapon systems operator?
Hello, I'm doing mine tomorrow, how was the numerical side of things, I'm quicker using paper, is it difficult?

@@edenmitchell6921 well I hope you will pass and so will I 😂 all the best. Hopefully I can get some tips for it once your done 😂
Hi,
Just out of curiosity, were the questions the same the second time you took the test?
Hi everyone,
Anyone has an idea what is the score criteria for AAC pilot ?
Thanks
How high would you need to score for the role of logistics chef?
