RNZAF · iPhone & Android
The NZ CBAT app
NZ CBAT (RNZAF CBAT) practice in your pocket. Realistic practice tests, step-by-step coaching and a full NZ CBAT Simulator for Royal New Zealand Air Force candidates, made by a candidate who sat the real CBAT and passed.
What's in the app
Numerical, spatial, instrument, memory, attention, tracking and multitasking tests, timed like the real thing and scored in stanines.
Each test is taught step by step before you try it, with the questions candidates always ask answered as you go.
Sit the tests back to back like the real sitting, with results weighted for RNZAF roles. NZ CBAT mode uses the CLAN multitasking test and leaves out Dynamic Projection, which has been removed from the NZ CBAT.
See how you rank on every test and swap tips with New Zealand and UK candidates in the CBAT Ready Discord.
Your Pro subscription works on cbatready.com too, where the web adds the tests that need a keyboard and mouse.
What candidates say
“This app is so helpful… it's not about memorising answers, it's about becoming familiar with the test format, gathering information on things like timings and what happens on the day from the community. That way when you walk into the exam, you feel like you've been there before… That is a gem in a gold mine. 100% recommend.”
“This app along with the website are very well designed and closely emulate the real CBAT conditions, which gave a really helpful advantage going into the test, as while they say "you don't need to prepare", knowing what's coming your way before you enter the room is incredibly valuable…”
“Helped me smash through RAAF Pilot selection! Would recommend to anyone that has to do the CBAT for their Pilot selection.”
NZ CBAT app FAQs
Is there a NZ CBAT app?
Yes. CBAT Ready is a NZ CBAT practice app for iPhone and Android. Pick RNZAF when you start and it sets itself up for the NZ CBAT: NZ CBAT mode uses the CLAN multitasking test and leaves out Dynamic Projection, which has been removed from the NZ CBAT. It has practice tests for every NZ CBAT skill, Test Coaching walkthroughs and a full timed Simulator.
Is the NZ CBAT app free?
It's free to download from the App Store and Google Play, with tests you can try free. CBAT Ready Pro unlocks everything, and one subscription covers the app and the website.
Is CBAT Ready right for the NZ CBAT if it's named after the RAF CBAT?
Yes. The NZ CBAT belongs to the same family of computer-based aircrew aptitude tests as the RAF CBAT and measures the same skills, which is why New Zealand candidates already use CBAT Ready. In RNZAF mode the app and site call it the NZ CBAT and run the battery your service sits.
