Free ADF Additional Testing Practice Test

Preparing for ADF Additional Testing requires more than general aptitude skills. For aviation roles, candidates are assessed through a competitive selection process that measures their ability to perform under pressure across a range of specialised tasks.

This free ADF Additional Testing practice test introduces the key question types used in the ADF aircrew test and ADF pilot aptitude test process. Whether you’re applying for pilot, mission aircrew, or other aviation pathways, this resource will help you understand what to expect and identify areas for improvement before your official assessment. Candidates preparing for aviation pathways, including those researching the RAAF pilot aptitude test, can use this free resource to become familiar with common ADF assessment questions. If you’re pursuing a flying career, explore our Aviation Pilot Pathway to understand the complete recruitment process.

Benchmarked & Ranked: Understanding ADF Additional Testing

Unlike the JOA, where you’re assessed against a set standard, Additional Testing introduces
competitive ranking:

  • There is a minimum benchmark you must reach
  • Your score is compared to other candidates sitting the test within the same intake window
  • Benchmark cut-offs can shift depending on candidate performance across the group

It’s not just about doing “well” — it’s about outperforming.

What's Inside the Free ADF Additional Testing Practice Test

This free mini-test gives you a snapshot of the question styles and mental processes you’ll need to master. It includes sample questions from each of the four core testing areas:

  • Aircraft Orientation
  • Instrument Reading
  • Spatial Awareness
  • Estimation Maths

You’ll get a feel for the difficulty level, pacing, and type of thinking required — all based on real ADF test principles.

Important: This Is Just a Taste

This free test is not a full simulation. It does not cover every variation or difficulty tier you’ll face in the real exam.

To truly prepare — and position yourself above the benchmark — you need the full training
experience.

Verizen coaching was a crucial aspect of my preparation for my OSB. Without them, the OSB would not have been nearly as easy as what it was with proper coaching. I got a high recommendation on the day, so don't just take my word for it, the panel loved the answers I gave too!

My son has benefited tremendously from the coaching. He was very well guided throughout his preparation for the ADF interview. The sessions are well structured and targeted the areas of improvement. The coach was also able to answer all my queries as well 😀. Highly recommended 👍

Ive done almost the full courses for the Defence interview and OSB. The Defence interview questions comfortably prepared me for it to the point where I could answer all of their questions. The OSB impromptu speech algorithm really helped my confidence in that critical step of the selection board and the mock interview helped remember and reinforce some of the old stuff. The sessions are quite pricey in my opinion however, they got me through the whole process as advertised.

Extremely helpful from start to finish of my course. My mentor led me through all of the exact questions and scenarios that I would encounter in my OSB, and allowed me to achieve a recommendation for my officer role. I would definitely recommend Verizen Coaching if you want to ace your OSB!

I went through Verizen's ASP Simulator when I applied . The course was extremely accurate to the real 2 days and 20 tests at Sale, and I unlocked my top preference role of RAAF Pilot!

The Additional Testing simulator is the closest thing you will get to the actual Defence assessment day. The speed, time limits, and question formats were spot on. Helped me lock in my aviation role without stress and progressed to ASP.
