Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

[biernini]

Which trades have the highest CFAT minimum scores for eligibility?

 

[Ayrsayle]

So I failed my CFAT and really am trying to pass it. What topics on Khan academy should I focus on? There are a ton of them but don't know which ones to focus on that would be on the CFAT. Thank you for your help

Then you've already seen what the CFAT consists of and likely what you found difficult.  There is no "secret" to success - and you already know the ground you'll be tested on next time.  Why not start there?

What units should I cover on Khan academy to be ready?

What units did you fail on the CFAT?

 

[Philip1163]

I failed for the problem solving part and they said I should also work on my vocab

You just answered your own question.

But there are a ton of units and I don't know which one to focus on

My CFAT score was "banging" according to my recruiter so I'm wondering which trades have the highest CFAT cut-offs for eligibility.  It might make me re-consider my trade choice thusfar.

Hello everyone.  I am very confused and feel like i am getting the runaround with this topic.  I was in the military in 2006-2008 and got out for personal reasons.  Now i want to rejoin got everything cleared except now they say i have to take this stupid CFAT test again when i did it once and i want to go back into my same trade.  Is there anyone that would be able to assist me with this.

There are several reasons why someone would need to rewrite the CFAT.  They couldn't find your previous test scores, the test scores available were not transferrable over to the current scoring matrix, your test scores did not meet the required level for continued processing or your test scores did not meet the required level to qualify you for your previous occupation.

Ask your CFRC, they should be able to give you an answer!

Last week I wrote the CFAT and was found to be just below the standard score for the Officer trades that I wanted (Aerospace Control, Signals and Intelligence). I was told that I was ineligible for Signals as it requires a computer science/ physics degree while I possess a bachelor od science in forensic science. Intelligence is closed at the moment. I was thinking to re-write but the thing is I possess red green colour deficiency and I am pretty sure I would be disqualified for Aerospace control with this condition. However I qualified for many NCM trades, some of which I am interested in (Avionics Systems Tech, Weapons Tech - Land and Aircraft Structures Tech ). I am wondering if I should wait three months to rewrite the CFAT or just go with one of the NCM trades that interest me. Thank you for your input.

This thread is for quesitons that can be directed directly to an actual CF recruiter (or someone with experience as a CF recruiter).

Your question is more of an opinion question, so I would find a more appropriate thread and ask there.

Cheers!


Yes! I did it right, finally!
