Title: Practice Test for Aerospace Exams
Post by: addo1 on January 16, 2009, 05:49:11 PM
  After a search on the forum, and not coming up with anything, I though I would post here. I used to use a really helpful aerospace practice test, but now the link is no more (http://mdln.hws.edu/cap/modules/index.asp). I wanted to know if anyone knows of any cadet aerospace practice tests that they would be willing to direct me to. Thanks.

I haven't played around with it much but it seems to use the same tests as the other website did. It also has links to the CadetStuff leadership tests.

that is a great resource I know a cadet or two that would benefit from that kind of practice.

Two years later...the same question: Anyone know what happened to the Aerospace Practice Tests?

The Wyoming Wing had a great resource, though the practice tests were on the older modules, they were an outstanding resource. The link, unfortunately, is quite dead.  Suggestions?  Thanks in advance!

hmm...might be something that I need to add to my master resources project (http://captalk.net/index.php?topic=13811.msg249677#msg249677) if there aren't any updated versions out there.

Aren't practice tests kind of moot now that the achievement tests are online and open book?

Some people still use the old book.

And, when you are a higher rank, it may be beneficial.

I took a practice(leadership) exam for my wright brothers.

Agreed.  What I don't like about the online testing is cadets not studying at all - just trying to open-book it all the way.

They will soon find out that they should not have done that when they take the milestone tests.

some practice material can be found through the Wyoming Wing site, under AE:
