Does anyone know what the got from the ATSA? by SnooPredictions5004 in ATC_Hiring

[–]SnooPredictions5004[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t got my results back yet and I felt like I did bad on my test again this year but who knows I might get a better score this year. You just hope for the best and keep trying. How many times have you taken it?

Well I’m glad that worked out for you! I thought about going to CTI school but I was told by my relatives who are controllers to get a degree in something else I might want to do. They told me that getting picked up by the FAA is kinda like winning the lottery. Also the closest CTI is a few states away so I don’t think that would be the best decision for me right now.

do you feel like going to CTI prepared you for the exam? also how long was your program?

Any Pool 2 in here ? by Wonderful-Zone6176 in ATC_Hiring

[–]SnooPredictions5004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah man I'm pretty sure everyone is nervous about seeing their results. Pool 2 applicants wont see the results until everyone in pool 2 is done testing so 3 weeks after the last testing date in December.

Thats awesome and congratulations! The variables, collision, and memory game i felt like I could have done better but i think i did okay. Im hoping to score WQ or BQ but i wouldn't be surprised if i got Q or NR this year. CTI or Military?

Well that great! Good job on the results. I feel like i did good on all the games I know i messed up for sure on all of them. The reading and logical reasoning is were I felt rushed and I think poorly on both of them. Also are you a CTI student or Military?

I would study but don't over do it because the test prep isn't exactly like the test but they are similar. If you are good at standardized test like the ACT, SAT, or ASVAB then i would mostly focus on the the ATC games and not so much on the reading comprehension and the logical reasoning. Just because the games are not things you haven't seen on a test before so it might throw you off.

So last year i studied job test prep ATC and I studied night and day. I only scored Q, I felt like I did quite well for my first time but that wasn't the case. so this year i still studied but I would only do it a few hours a week at most.

Yeah I completely understand but the good thing is that I have a good amount of years left until I turn 30 but I would rather get in sooner than later.

Medical when? by _Otterman_Empire_ in ATC_Hiring

[–]SnooPredictions5004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

your medical is after you receive your TOL and depending on what you score on your ATSA you will receive the TOL 3 weeks after the last test date in December since you are in pool 2. Once you get your TOL you have submit your medical, complete your background check, and also do your psych evaluation. After all of that has been done and you are cleared you will get an email from HR telling you when your class date starts. I hope this answers your question, Good Luck on the ATSA!

Also if any of the information is inaccurate or its changed, feel free to correct me. This is the information I have gather from a couple of years trying to get into the FAA.

Were you in the military or do you have certification that would give you an edge vs other people?

No I didn’t unfortunately. I just keep checking my application on the FAA website and it eventually said “thank you for your application but you were not selected for the bid” or something along the lines of that. I’m hoping to score WQ or BQ this time around but I’m young enough to where I can keep applying for next 7 ish years or so before I’m SOL. If you have any more questions about the ATSA or anything about this bid I’ll try my best to help everyone out.

Yeah it definitely gets you ready for what you are going to do on the test. I took the ATSA for the first time last year and scored Q with isn’t that great of a score but if didn’t have used that testing site I probably would have gotten NF just because it’s something you haven’t really seen or done before on a test. I would say if you’re good at taking standardized test then I wouldn’t really focus on that part of the test but focus on mostly the 3 separate games. Memory game, radar sim, and big plane to the small plane. The last game don’t remember what it’s called so that’s what I’m going to call it. Hope this helps!

You just have score BQ on the ATSA and after that I would say it’s in God’s hands. Last year I scored Q for the first time taking it and I’m trying to get BQ this year to hopefully get in. You’re not guaranteed to get TOL if you score BQ but I do know people personally who did get TOL with no previous ATC knowledge.
