Stephen85 Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 Hey All, First time posting on here so I will give you my stats (still pretty early so I will edit as things come in): 25 Years OldASVAB: TBD - Have the ARCO book and feel confident. AFAST: TBD - Have the ARCO book, FAA Rotorcraft Manual, and the Principles of Helicopter Flight. Feel pretty confident but I still have at least a month and a half before I take this. APFT:TBD but shooting for 300. Can max sit-ups and push-ups but have to get the run down to 13:00. I have a couple months so shouldn't be too hard. Education: 2 years at West Point (Honorable Discharge). 2 Bachelors degrees and 2/3 years of Law School completed. Ready to get back into the Army... 6 LORs Flight Experience: Other than riding in a Black Hawk a couple times - None. So now you know a little about me - here's the question. For those of you who have taken the AFAST - is the complex movements arrow key the same on the real test as the practice test? I have searched but have not seen a definitive answer. Also, I saw an Army news article mentioning that HRC is moving to Ft. Knox/Campbell (can't remember) and that several boards would be suspended from the months of July-September. Has anyone else heard this and whether or not it will affect the WOFT boards. Thanks. - Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisrustydog Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 yes it is identical Do they provide the key for you on the test, or are you expected to memorize it? (LEFT/RIGHT/UP/DOWN symbols) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWannaFly Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 It's on the test. You don't have much time to complete this section though so if you did have it memorized it would make you much faster, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen85 Posted June 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I think the key is simply to keep it to 10 seconds per problem - even if it means making an educated guess. After a couple times of taking it I've got it down to about 1:30 minutes to spare. I realize that will probably tighten up a bit on the real thing but I feel its a pretty good buffer.
