-ICAO English Aviation Test-

According to the statistic, about 95% of air crashes were caused of human error. Basically when we talk about human error, you will think of pilot inevitably. In fact, human error is related with anyone in aviation besides pilot such as Air Traffic Controller, Marshaller, Engineer, ground crew, flight attendant, load master and etc. So, don't always blame on pilot! XD
The major mistake usually is related with communication error such as, get wrong information, can't get the instruction clearly, ignore the instruction and etc. For the sake of this, we have ICAO English Aviation Test. ICAO is International Civil Aviation Organization. Every pilot and controller shall take this test and at least pass with level 4. It doesn't same like normal english test,more likely to Oral test instead. I bet this is tougher than MUET !!! wtf !
and.... this costs me RM450 !!! wtf wtf wtf !!

So, i'm about to take this test soon. Today i'm goin to have the PRE-test of it. wtf!

Okie, let's start !

bla bla bla ~~

Basically the test contains of 8 parts.
1. Just read the sentences as instructed.
this is superb easy !!

2. Read back what the computer said.
average~ but if the computer said something freaking long, then you really wtf !

3. Answer the Questions.
Okie, the Question ain't that hard but has the time constraint. Furthermore, the slang of the voice from computer will change like nobody's business ! I couldn't catch what it said !! wtf ! and just answer " I don't know! I don't know! I don't know! and I don't know wtf! "

4. Build the sentence
Average as well, you gotta rearrange the words into sentence.

5. Story retelling
wtf, the computer will read out a story and you gotta summarize it.

6. Question
you gotta give out your opinion based on your answer.

The part 7 and 8 will be conducted during actual test which are tougher than previous parts.
Yea, i screwed up the test. wtf! When i get some weird slang ( i guess that lady is from India?) which i don't know wtf was she talking about, and i answered mumbling and screwed up the computer by saying " Fuck !" . XD The whole session will be recorded and sent to UK for assessment. I guess they will be shock with my rudeness~ XD

Luckily this is preeeeeeeeeeeeee - test ! phewww..
