CFAT scores for NE TECHs?

[tommy25]

Before I get flamed, I searched for this information with no success.  I could go to the recruiting centre and ask, but if they see me too many more times they might give me the elbow drop or something ;D.

I'm just curious as to the scores required on the CFAT to qualify as an NE TECH(any of them)?

Regards,

Tommy

Why do people want to know this?  Is it because once you think you reach that score on the test you can stop?  Is it because you don't really want to do your very best but only want to do good enough to meet your trade?  Anyways, if you want to be a NE Tech you have to score very high.

You won't get the CFRC to answer this one. Just do the test, and you'll quickly find out if you qualified for the trade you want (you'll even get a list of jobs you qualified for).

Yeah that's exactly it.  I don't wish to do my best.  I only wish to meet the qualifications for my trade interest.  Once I achieve that score I will quit the test.  Get real for God sakes .  I was merely curious.  Pardon me.  I apologize for the waste of bandwidth.

Do the test to the best of your ability and you will be informed if you make the grade for the trade you want.

for what its worth, if it makes you happy, i was 16 when i took my test for the reserves. they said i was JUST at officer level. but barely. i thought of going officer when i applied for the AF, however my highschool isn't good enough for them to pay my tuition or to go to RMC. if i want Officer, i need to upgrade my Highschool and go to post secondary.

see everyone, it wasn't that hard, now was it?

that being said, how hard it it to generally get that on the aptitude test, or how common is it?

To the OP.

I am an NE tech.  Comm tech really.  When I became a Comm Tech I was sitting on a PAT platoon in Borden wasting away in boredomville.  I was a VEH tech due to my lack of education previous to my entry to the forces.  The information you receive from the recruiters and the information you receive from the websites on NE techs is on a whole mostly incorrect.  Or at least understated in certain aspects.  Before trying for this occupation, I would reccommend taking a few work-shadow days with each of the three trades and really find out the ins and outs.  There are currently many outs here. 
Back to your original question though.  How high do you have to score.  Ne Tech requires higher than most NCMS as we also spend at the least 3 years to the most 5 years on our education before we are journeyman qualified.  There are two options as entry paths and depending on your highschool leaving that means a good party in Newfoundland or a slightly longer and less fun party in Halifax. 
For my case I had grade 10 core math and grade 11 financial accounting and bio 11 to hinder me.  Not the best options for entry into any civi U.  So I took the long way.  As a Comm Tech that meant 2 years for my 3's, 7 months for my 4's on ship, 2 years for my 5's at civi college/Halifax and various other times away for delta courses.  All of these courses are at university level, and after I had a PLAR done I have gained acceptance into MUN for the B.Tech program.  That program is considered as walking into year four of a four year BSc (applied).  Don't worry about the actual scoring so much.  They bend the rules all the time.  Just try your best and practice questions similar to the sample on the website.
