Guest GooneyBird Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Fella's. You all know that you need one thing and one thing only to prepare for the BAT. Can you say "Etch-a-sketch?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest AirGuardian Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 I didn't sign nothing, nuttin... I'll tell you what it's all about and what it looks like.... Aaaah maybe not, it was a Commadore 64 running the show back then. For those who have seen yesteryear, the test was like PONG. I hear they have color now? [ 23.

ChkHandleDn Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 Now that you can retake the BAT, do they score it the same way as the AFOQT? As in the most recent score is the one they use, or do they take the best score for the BAT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flight Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 Yes....Most recent is what they use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sky_king Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Would you rather: 1) Drive a bakery truck 2) Drive a fuel truck Would you rather: 1) Think up Smokey the Bear slogans 2) Parachute in to fight a forest fire Maybe those questions are better on the newer machines, but did anybody else find that last section retarded?

Guest jriggoMOANG Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 No, I can totally understand what the purpose of the last sections is. It is there to get into your head and dig out characteristic traits. You know do you shy away from more hazardous adventures and or are you willing to, what was I saying? Yeah, kinda retarded, but a great cool down from all the other tests, my wrists got cramped up with all the stress that I put on myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the computer was a 386. I wouldn't knock the C64, I loved my old one back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Absolutlyfly Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 When I took the BAT I felt like a monkey taking a calculus test. But all was well I got a PCSM of 92. Just relax and try not to think how the test directly affects your future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFCS_Actuator Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 LOL. No color yet! That last section was kind of wierd. I think the bst way is to answer them truthfully. Don't try to out think the test. All I know is that is was the most fun I've ever had taking a test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WILLIO Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Hey guys... I took it about 2 mths ago and it was colored alright. Atari colors... My 2 cents to doing well is to prepare as best as you can by doing what you think will help you. This is so you feel as confident as you can when you go in. Then go try to have fun with it. By the 2nd section I was making gun sounds and shit and by the 3rd section I was talking to the lady while hitting buttons. She said that she has never watched anyone take it because everyone is so uptight... so I told her to come on in. You'll loosen up after a while. You realize at some point that you are doing about as good as anyone can possibly do on the thing... so you just blow it off. Worked for me!...Good Luck Dude! OH Yeah... As stated above... Take your time in between and read the directions. There is no time constraint on that so take a breather and get ready for the next section.

Guest jriggoMOANG Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Willio, I too was having a great time taking the BAT, gun sounds and all(I did not have an audience though). Just relax and not only read the instructions, but make sure that you understand them as well. Good luck to all who are planning on taking it.

ChkHandleDn Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 http://www.aetc.randolph.af.mil/sas/pcsm/C...eck%20score.htm As far as score is concerned, it varies. Some people get slots w/ single digits. Just depends on your competition and how you are overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecugringo Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 hey thanks a lot. i recieved a 90 i guess thats considered good. i had a 70 on my pilot score on my afoqt, 270 flight hrs with a commercial/instrument and a 2.8 gpa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChkHandleDn Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 No prob. A 90 is an excellent score! Good job and good luck w/ getting a slot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Apollo Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 The GPA isn't figured as part of the BATS, btw. I know you put it on the form, but it isn't in the equation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ghostrider Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Hey everyone, how are you doing? I was wondering if you could help me out. I'm having some trouble taking the BAT Test. The problem is, I haven't even taken it, and my cadre don't know where I can take it. They closest base to me is Holloman AFB. My cadre have been trying to find out but they haven't had any luck. They've called the base and no one knows anything about it. I was wondering if you knew which group on base is responsible for the BAT. Would I need to talk to the education office, flight medicine, or some other group? I'd really appreciate it if anyone could help as time is starting to wind down. Thank you very much!

HerkDerka Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Considering it is the cadre's job to schedule pilot selection testing (and also know where the hell it is), that doesn't speak to well of them. The test is almost guaranteed to be contracted out. I'd call everyone until I got a good answer. HD [ 21.

Guest CBStud Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I'm pretty sure they are located at ROTC detachments. I took mine at one and my school was getting one as I was leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest skipplet Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 We have ours at our detachment... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest El Campion Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Agree with everyone above. SOme detachments do nnot have the test, so they have to go through the nearest AFB. A good place to start would be Promotions/AF testing at Holloman. PM me and I can get you a number for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
