Im saying this based on a person who did the CFAT with me. He was offered only 6 or 7 trade and I think it was steward, infantry and a few others. i never claimed i knew everything about the CFAT either

The CFAT is based on Grad 10 education.
The %iles are not normally given out because they can be misleading.
the "cut off" scores vary with different occupational groups, and those cut off scores can vary yearly, or every so often.
My advice to you is don't think too much about what score you need to get, just try to answer all of them as you are not penalized for wrong answers.
Also, only attempt the aptitude test if you feel you are ready to pass as there is a limit with how many times you can write the test, as you might need to get an academic upgrade to rewrite.
If you have any other questions contact your local recruiting centre and ask to speak to the testing clerk. 1-800-856-8488

Dress civilized, so... leave the G-Unit, or Ozzy Osbourne shirt at home
Dress half formal first impressions are the ones people remember the most. That may mean having the advantage over the next person, you may get the job offer, and the other person will be working at McDicks or Tim's this summer instead of the Army..Goodluck, Cheers.

JUST PASSED IT TODAY. it's fairly easy and im in applied classes. THE BEST ADVICE and they will tell you this is TAKE YOUR TIME on each question and READ IT CAREFULLY!!!! and you should do fine

I understand that, but the OP is specifically referring to an officer trade. To my knowledge, a degree is a requirement to become an officer, so I disagree that it's got nothing to do with CF trades that the OP was specifically referring to.

The only tip I can say for the spatial part is you can always narrow it down to two choices. Then you have a 50% shot at getting it right. I used that method and scored high enough to qualify for any job I wanted (Although they wouldn't tell me the final score, I know I got all the vocab and math questions right, and knew I narrowed each spatial to a 50% probability). The math was fairly simple if you reread the question over and make sure you answer exactly what they are asking, as some times you may interpret it differently.

I just passed the cfat and im in grade 12 college classes. The best advice I can give you and you probley read 100's of times is to do some practice aptitute tests on the internet and read every question carefully and DON'T spend too much time on one question.

I just wrote my CFAT! I must say it wasn't too too bad! I under-estimated the vocabulary part, for most of the questions I was like huh??
The rest of the questions (math, spatial reasoning, logic) are doable, but you are pressed for time. I found the only part were I ran out of time was during the 30min., 30 math questions. The rest I had at least 1-2min to look over!
I have my medical along with my interview tomorrow, we'll see what happens. And, I applied for 15 field ambulance here at Edmonton.

Hmm, and see I had plenty of time during all sections. I did the math with almost 10 mins to spare. I was shocked that I did so well (I had expected to do horrible in that area) I guess it all depends on the person writing and the comfort level.

The first time I wrote my CFAT test I didn't score as high as I wanted for the ATIS trade. I decided to put my application on hold and try again. I put it off for a bit, so the recruiting center called me, four times. I was told that's a good sign. It means they want you to try and pass again. Anyway I've decided to write again next week, after 5 years!!
