Make every practice session count

The trainer is intended for skill-building, not for predicting an official assessment score. Start at an attainable difficulty, understand the rules of each task and increase complexity when your performance becomes consistent.

Before you start

Use a modern desktop browser if possible, especially for keyboard-heavy tests and MIC with a joystick. Choose a quiet place for listening tasks and test your audio before starting. If you use a phone, check that all controls are visible before beginning a timed session.

Memory and perception

RMS — Auditory digit memory

Listen to the entire sequence before submitting the digits in reverse order. Begin with shorter sequences, then increase difficulty. Compare accuracy over several sessions rather than drawing conclusions from a single attempt.

VMC — Visual working memory

In n-back exercises, compare the current item with the one shown n positions earlier. Focus on the exact attributes required by the current rule. Practice avoiding both missed matches and false alarms.

OWT — Instrument reading

Read each dial carefully and use a consistent order of attention. Start without excessive time pressure, then progress toward faster recognition while maintaining accuracy.

Numbers and spatial thinking

KRN-A and KRN-V — Mental arithmetic

Develop a reliable approach to the operation before increasing speed. For spoken calculations, pay particular attention to the order of numbers and the operation; for visual calculations, avoid rushing decimal answers.

PPT — Dice and spatial rotation

Compare the cube net with the proposed three-dimensional views. Remember that legitimate rotations preserve which faces are adjacent and opposite; a mirror reflection is not the same as a rotation. The built-in review panel helps examine the orientation after each answer.

WFG — Spatial orientation

Follow the route mentally from its starting direction. Count only the turns requested by the question and avoid letting the overall shape distract you from individual direction changes.

Concentration, multitasking and English

SKT — Rule-based concentration

Memorize the rules before the session and check which rule applies to each symbol. Accuracy becomes easier to maintain when you follow a fixed decision sequence.

MIC — Coordination and divided attention

Keep the displayed flight parameters near their targets and respond to the digit-monitoring task at the required moments. Start with basic control, then add the listening workload. If using a joystick, confirm the axis mapping and dead zone first.

ENS — English practice

Use wrong answers as a guide to the grammar, vocabulary or reading topics you should revisit. Read each complete question before selecting an answer.

How to monitor progress

Choose one or two target skills per session, keep difficulty comparable when reviewing your performance, and export your JSON backup periodically. Results currently remain in the browser on the device you use; they are not synchronized across devices.
