The Mollymawk Test

Lesson 2 of 3•2 min read•8 exercises

The first scored gate is reported to be a computer-based assessment from Mollymawk, the German assessment company whose tests are used by several European carriers. Candidates describe a session of roughly three hours built from short, strictly timed subtests — long enough that concentration management becomes part of what is being measured.

The reported subtest areas

  • Mathematics: mental arithmetic and applied calculations without a calculator.

  • Physics: mechanics and basic technical principles applied to practical situations.

  • English: comprehension and usage, consistent with an airline that interviews and operates in English.

  • Spatial orientation: headings, relative positions and instrument-style interpretation.

  • Memory: short-term retention and recall of visual and numerical information.

  • Multitasking: stacked simple tasks measuring how your accuracy survives divided attention.

How to prepare

Train all six families rather than binging on your strongest. The Mental Maths game rebuilds calculator-free arithmetic speed; Technical Reasoning and Physics Knowledge cover the physics and mechanics layer; Spatial Awareness mirrors the orientation formats; Sequences trains the pattern and working-memory element; and the Vigilance Test plus the Multitasking Test build the concentration stamina a three-hour test quietly scores. For the English family, the Aviation English game drills the written side — pair it with daily reading and listening practice — and in the final week rehearse full-length sessions so the duration itself holds no surprises.

What the test looks like

A worked example from each exercise in this lesson, exactly as the test presents it.

Math: Full

Example: a question from the mix

The Full test draws from all seven math categories — integers, decimals, fractions, time, weight, operators and percentages — one question at a time. Here is a representative decimal item; time and weight questions appear in their own stacked layout.

13.6+2.75
A)16.35
B)15.95
C)16.75
D)17.85
Explanation

Line up the decimal points before adding: 13.60 + 2.75 = 16.35. The wrong options are small offsets of the right answer — four tenths light, four tenths heavy, a point and a half over — so estimating “about sixteen” is not enough; the hundredths have to be right. Because the categories are shuffled, read each question on its own terms before reaching for a method.

Math: Full

A mixed practice test combining all math categories — integers, decimals, fractions, time, weight, operators, and percentages — with a per-question timer.

6 minIntellectual

Technical Reasoning

Inspect a technical construction of gears, pulleys, racks and rods, and pick the option that allows (or disallows) the indicated movement.

On a balanced seesaw, a 40 N weight sits 1 m from the pivot. To balance it, where must a 20 N weight be placed on the other side?
A0.5 m from the pivot
B2 m from the pivot
C4 m from the pivot
D1 m from the pivot

Physics Knowledge

Answer high-school-level physics questions across mechanics and fluids, electricity and magnetism, optics, heat and energy — predicting how physical scenarios behave, not just recalling formulas.

Aviation English

Three modes: written multiple-choice English items across grammar, idioms, synonyms and sentence completion, with a Wizz Air TestAir360 grammar preset; an ATC listening mode where a transmission plays once and you answer on what you heard; and a read-then-answer mode where a short text disappears before its question appears.

10 minIntellectual

Spatial Awareness

Visualise a 3D shape from a fixed viewpoint and pick the matching 2D view. Tests mental rotation and spatial perception under time pressure.

Multitasking Test

Two tasks at once: scan number grids for duplicate pairs while answering spoken questions from your phonebook, agenda, mental math and word categories — some of which must be answered at an exact moment on the clock.
