Timed mock battery · 11 subtests · ~16 min

Core Screening Battery

A balanced full screen: numbers, words, space, technical, checking, control.

Difficulty

Applied to every subtest that has a difficulty setting. You can still change it on an individual subtest before it starts.

The subtests run one after another with no break. Each shows its own instructions first, then starts when you are ready. Your combined score and a per-section breakdown appear at the end.

A balanced, full-length screening session that samples the mix most first-stage pilot screens cover: numerical and verbal reasoning, abstract and spatial ability, a technical item, two clerical-speed checks (data cross-checking and symbol matching), a monitoring task, a hand-eye control run and a short memory span. Eleven subtests, played back to back and scored as one.

How the battery works

A battery strings several of our standalone exercises into one back-to-back session, the way a real selection day runs subtest after subtest with no gaps. You get one combined score plus a breakdown of how you did on each part, so you can see where to focus. It is deliberately generic: it rehearses the shape and pacing of a screening day without copying any one publisher's test. Which tests do airlines use?

Frequently asked questions

What does the core battery cover?

It samples the common first-stage mix: mental arithmetic, data interpretation, verbal reasoning, abstract patterns, mental rotation, a mechanical-reasoning item, a data cross-checking task, instrument monitoring, a symbol-matching speed task, a hand-eye control run and a memory span. Each is one of our standalone exercises.

How is the overall score worked out?

Every subtest is scored 0 to 100 in the same way as when you play it on its own. The battery score is the average of your section scores. The results screen shows the full per-section breakdown so you can see your strongest and weakest areas.

Is it affiliated with any real screening system?

No. It is an original SkyStudy sequence of our own exercises, not any branded assessment, and it does not predict the outcome of a real airline selection.
