Passed my Airmen Selection Test today. Have my interview on 30th March, so getting closer!! AST harder than I thought and I'm pretty sure the pass mark for the trade of Gunner must be fairly low because I'm sure I got a few wrong under the pressure of time restraints!

Anyway will let you all know any further progress towards PGAC etc

Yeah i know what you mean, i had my AST test last monday and found it harder than i expected especially the work rate and memory part.

Afterwards i was talking to one of the corporals about my test score and found out you only need a score of 38 to be a gunner. I got a score of 63 (missed out on aircrew by 7) and he was shocked when i told him all i wanted to be was a gunner, because i got a high score and tried to push me towards admin/ medical assistant.


Got my interview in 4 weeks, good luck with your interview on wednesday mate hope you pass. Let me know how you got on.

P.S what was your score?

Just out of curiosity (I'm going for the AST in 2 days! I'm a nervous wreck ), when you say you only need a score of 38... is that overall? As in, throughout the whole test, you need 38 out of whatever score it is altogether or in a specific section? The last time I applied for the RAF was 2 years ago so I can't remember naff so to say the least haha! I'm not very good at the electrical side of it either which is a shame but the maths, memory and work rate I should be fine at I think.

Cheers in advance!
