What is the ADAPT Test?
The ADAPT test assesses your cognitive abilities, psychomotor skills, multitasking, and personality traits. IndiGo Airlines uses this assessment to ensure candidates are prepared for the challenges of piloting and can meet the rigorous demands of their cadet pilot program.
The ADAPT/CASS test evaluates several critical skills and traits necessary for pilot training. These include:
- Psychomotor Skills: Measures the ability to coordinate physical movement with mental processes, essential for controlling the aircraft and responding quickly to changes
- Decision-Making and Judgment: Assesses a candidate's ability to make timely, logical decisions, especially in high-stress situations where rapid judgement is key
- Situational Awareness: Tests awareness of surroundings, an essential skill for monitoring multiple aspects of a flight and reacting appropriately to any changes.
- Memory and Recall: Short-term memory is evaluated to ensure candidates can remember and execute instructions accurately—a crucial requirement in the cockpit.
- Stress Tolerance: Gauges how well candidates handle stress, enabling them to stay calm and effective under high-pressure conditions.
- Teamwork and Communication Skills: Evaluates a candidate's interpersonal skills and ability to communicate effectively, essential for coordinating with crew members and air traffic control.
- Numerical Reasoning: Measures the ability to interpret numbers and calculations, useful for tasks such as fuel calculation, navigation, and data interpretation.
The ADAPT/CASS test comprises multiple sub-tests, each designed to measure a specific set of skills critical for piloting. Depending on the airline or training institution, the test may vary slightly, but it generally includes the following components:
- Hand-Eye Coordination: Assesses a candidate’s ability to manage flight controls accurately based on visual information.
- Memory Exercises: Tests short-term memory through sequences of numbers, symbols, or instructions to simulate real-world cockpit scenarios.
- Spatial Awareness: Measures awareness of position and movements in a 3D space, critical for navigation and manoeuvring.
- Mental Arithmetic and Math Skills: Evaluates a candidate’s mathematical ability to handle calculations quickly and under pressure.
- Complex Decision-Making: Examines the ability to analyse multiple variables and make sound decisions in a short timeframe
- Stress Management: Tests how well a candidate can perform under stress, with tasks designed to simulate high-stakes aviation situations.
These components are structured to test whether candidates possess the focus, resilience, and aptitude required to handle a career in aviation. The ADAPT/CASS test has both a standard and an advanced version, with the advanced version tailored for experienced pilots or those in specific training programs.

Why Do You Need to Take the ADAPT Test?
The ADAPT test is a crucial step in becoming a pilot, assessing whether you meet the standards for commercial flight training. Without completing this test or a similar assessment like the COMPASS, it’s unlikely that a candidate will be eligible for a commercial pilot licence program. In some cases, airlines offer only the ADAPT or COMPASS as pilot aptitude tests, making it a necessary milestone in any pilot’s journey. The ADAPT test results can help both candidates and recruiters gauge readiness, giving insight into areas of strength and improvement. Successful performance on this test indicates that a candidate has the foundational skills required to proceed with more intensive pilot training.
