I found that the speed of the balls resembled more that of the ones on Job. Last year I only practiced thru ATCprep and I practiced the hardest setting of the sim and felt confident. But I was overwhelmed at how much faster the balls were on the test. Like during some of the scenarios, multiple groups of balls would fly in at the same time from the corners of the screen and crash immediately
I agree, JTP is *hard*. ATCPrep is more manageable but my scores are meh, like 43%. I see that lulu is saying that JTP's speed is more accurate to the test... This is gonna be rough. My practice with spatial awareness and variables has been decent, though. I feel the need to round things out by using logic and reading questions on Job.
Same dude. Time is flying by. But it's alright, we are all gonna do great
Yes thats correct. When the eye is present, you have to answer as if you are looking thru the eye.
Few weeks. Application Status will change in USAJOBS. Score should be in that section.
Did you take it during the beginning of the testing window or the end?
I think people have said it doesn’t matter when we take it because our scores will be released after everyone takes the test, i.e., after the testing window, not during it.
Beginning
One thing I found helpful was reciting the values of each variable in my head in alphabetical order. They won't necessarily be shown to you in that order, but if you are reciting them as such, you don't need to worry about which is a, b, or c when it starts asking questions, because you can simply refer to how you've organized them in your head. For instance, if the showed me "b = a - 2" first, I'd think, "blank (or whatever placeholder), a - 2, blank," and continue that until all info is given.
Thank you!! This helps a lot. The alphabetical organization is super helpful. I think taking out the b= and just remembering the equation in alphabetical order clears up my mental space.
We’ll never feel ready lol. Tbh, I just want my test day to get here, so I can finally get it done and put it behind me. Just 23 more days to go for me. I’m scheduled for the Saturday after Thanksgiving.
