Plenty of apps will let you "practice" for a pilot aptitude test. Very few actually replicate what the test measures. Here's the difference that matters.
| Generic Practice Apps | AviMetric | |
|---|---|---|
| Difficulty curve | Fixed or linear — doesn't match how the real test escalates | Modelled on the real assessment's escalation pattern, per module |
| Scoring | Simple percentage or pass/fail | Sten (Standard Ten) — the same norm-referenced scale used in real selection |
| Report | A single score, if any | Per-module Sten breakdown with a detailed PDF report |
| Module coverage | Usually one skill in isolation | Co-ordination, FAST, Maths, Physics, and Cognitive — the full battery |
| Built by | Generic quiz/app templates | An aviation professional with direct exposure to real assessment systems |
| Attempts | Often capped or ad-heavy | Unlimited attempts on every module for the length of your plan |
A candidate who trains on the wrong difficulty curve often walks into the real assessment feeling blindsided — not because they didn't practice, but because they practised the wrong shape of difficulty. The cheapest tool is worthless if it doesn't transfer to the real test day.
AviMetric exists because that gap is exactly what we set out to close — not by being the cheapest option, but by being the one that actually matches what you'll face. See how Sten scoring works or read our prep guides for more.
