Is the CBT alone adequate preparation for the exam?
To supplement the CBT provided by CPaT, we are providing access to an additional question bank. This question bank has proven to be a valuable resource for preparation in previous type ratings across various aircraft types. Our experience shows that if you diligently work through these questions, you will be well-prepared to pass the system test.
Is it possible to assess our daily preparation progress for exam?
In terms of checking your preparation level daily, the question bank and other training materials we provide do allow for regular self-assessment. This means you can indeed monitor your progress and understanding on a day-to-day basis, ensuring that you are consistently building your knowledge and confidence in the material.
Is it possible to get the question bank in a pdf file?
Unfortunately, due to copyright concerns, we are unable to publish or provide the question bank as a single open file. We can only make it available within the protected Classmarker environment. However, if you have any specific questions or if there are other ways we can help you prepare for the theoretical exam, please do let us know.
