RAF CBAT coaching
One-to-one online preparation for the RAF Computer Based Aptitude Test. Real-format question types, speed shortcuts and timed drills, planned backwards from your test date.
What we cover
The question types where CBAT marks are won and lost
Every session uses original practice questions written to match the real format, never copied from the test.
ANGLES
Angles, bearings & degrees
Estimate angles by eye and work out bearings quickly, using reference angles you can picture without a protractor.
SPATIAL
Spatial visualisation
Fold flat strips into 3D shapes in your head and track how faces and markings end up, step by step until it's fast.
MATHS
Speed maths
Speed, distance and time, percentages, fractions and conversions, solved with shortcuts that save seconds on every question.
PACE
Working under the clock
When to move on, when to make a smart guess, and how to keep your accuracy through long test sessions.
MOCKS
Timed mocks & reports
Homework after every session with a marked report, then full timed mocks so test day feels familiar.
Test formats can change. Always check the latest information from the RAF before your test day.

Questions
CBAT coaching FAQs
How early should I start preparing?
Ideally 5 or more weeks before your test, which fits the Basic or Premium plan. If your test is less than 3 weeks away, Fast-Track focuses only on your weakest areas.
Are the sessions online?
Yes. Every session is one-to-one on Zoom, so you can join from anywhere in the UK.
Are your practice questions copied from the real CBAT?
No. Every question is written by me to match the real format and difficulty. Nothing is taken from the test or its publishers.
Can you guarantee I'll pass?
No honest coach can promise a result. What you get is a clear plan, honest feedback on every piece of homework and a lot of timed practice, which is what moves scores.
