I have no idea what you just asked. Please check your posts before posting them. It looks like autocorrect had a spaz attack on your post.
Anyway, Warsash Maritime Academy have a maths study guide for new entrants to look at before starting college. You can have a look at it here: http://www.warsashacademy.co.uk/care...udy-guide.aspx
In terms of in interviews, I had to do a maths test to filter applicants before interview. It was about GCSE level, but you should be getting well over 80% to even be considered. Also had a mental reasoning test on the interview day. Not sure what other companies do and when.

I normally don't comment on grammar / spelling, but if you going to be sending applications off to companies then you really do need to work on your grammar and spelling, if you suffer from something along the lines of dyslexia then get some help when you fill in the forms etc.
As for the question in the OP, if you are asking if you will be given an engineering test during your interview then, not normally, no. However, you may be asked a few questions along the lines of what kind of fuel would you expect a ship to use or something like which way do you turn a nut to tighten it.
Also, as ETWhat said, there is no need to start a new thread for every question. Please post an introduction in "hello sailor" and tell us a little bit about yourself, you can then ask all the questions that you have in there.Go out, do stuff

If your dyslexic, do not be put off, many engineers at sea are dyslexic, deck officers too, and there is help for you during acedemic stages, the coastguard are more interested in whether you can perform your job and do it safely at junior officer then your grammar mate.
Ignore all the people being rude to you on here, before even giving you a chance, but try and take on any constructive advice people have given you.....

Really Spaz attack? That is really really offensive.
Then an Admin says thanks to Guinnessman for defending a forum person saying spaz attack? Liturally sort it out. I think you all need to go on management courses like the new HELM course. :P....

Oh, if we're going to giving opinions about each other, I personally think you need to grow up and bit and stop being so bloody sensitive every time some one disagrees with you.

I said thank you to Guinnessman for pointing out that before this person goes any further then he should concentrate on his spelling and Grammar before he makes any applications and his post was extremely difficult to understand.

In the thread about Not Under Command where you had a go at me I replied thinking that people would perhaps say I went overboard. I had 7 private messages saying they were so glad I had posted and 7 people thanked me for the post. What does that tell YOU?
