Re: Living/study in Sault Ste. Marie - (Sault college)

Thanks for the Advice , but if you don't mind me asking , how did you guys maintain your living expenses while studying ? saving money ? OSAP ?

Re: Living/study in Sault Ste. Marie - (Sault college)

Things change, but years ago all flight scheduling was done by the school so the students had no control over when they flew. There are pros and cons to doing it this way which I won't get into, but the big thing is that they wouldn't work around your job. What I would recommend is that if you're g...

Re: Sault College

I am in doing the program in Sault College, so my experience is from there. You can make it in, but you will suffer in the calculus courses if you got a 60% in Grade 12. It all depends on how overbooked the program is for that year. I got my acceptance email the second week of February, others in m...

Re: what are my chances to land a job as an airline pilot in this situation?

You've got an UNRESTRICTED CATEGORY 1 AVIATION MEDICAL. Enough said, stop worrying about colourblindness, and get on with flying. I have no idea what the first plate is in the Ishihara Test book, I could not care less what it is - because I have the D15 results on file with TC. My worries about col...

Re: TC English proficiency test scenarios/samples

I have never heard of that before , but I did not ask for the topics for conversation. and I'm not willing to game/cheat or even study the samples, I just asked to see a sample just to know some information about the map's questions .
