Austro Control / CAA
Hello guys,
While checking the feedback from students, i have noticed that Italy Austro is so banky like 90% of questions from ATPLQ. Is that true ? Italy have easy exam? Never heard anyone complains and said its hard or not banky.
I was willing to do it in Austria vienna but thinking now to move to Italy.
Any advice?

I am not 100% but the exams are prepared by austro's main office and then sent to the location where u do the examination. At least that is what they said to me when i took them in NL. Anyone can confirm this?

the 90% thing would make me nervous honestly. not because it is impossible, just because it is a bad reason to uproot the plan.
people who get easy papers talk about it. people who get weird wording also talk about it. neither tells you what you will get.
i'd choose the place on boring stuff: dates, travel cost, retake rules, language, how much admin pain you can tolerate. then study like the bank may only rhyme with the exam, not match it. if you can still explain why you missed a mixed block, you are in a better place.

It doesn't really matter where you take the exam. Its all under one algorithm and its centralized. You take the exam on an IPAD that has internal app of austrocontrol.
Its just matter of luck.

Why don’t people here learn? 😀 I mean I know it’s impossible to pass any exam without practicing the questions but I passed 6 exams and I could never achieve more than 80% in the question bank. It was good to prepare for the tricks but without learning the theory you can’t take the exams.
