如何でしたでしょうか。
こんなの簡単!という方は自力で受験することはできるでしょう。また、全くわからないという方は渡米前に座学(GROUND SCHOOL)を受講されると良いでしょう。
実際、多くの方が「例え英語が読めたとしても内容はさっぱり」というのが現状かと思います。それは航空専門用語が多いためで、例えば日本語が出来るからといって医学書や法律、建築、IT関連、気象、物理などの専門図書を自力で読み、理解できるのか?ということと同じだからです。
専門の学問を独学で勉強するのは簡単なことではありません。
この準備を行わずに渡航すれば、米国にて勉強することになりますので、当然ながら滞在期間が長くなり、その結果費用も余計にかかる事になる訳です。
最低でも学科試験対策は終わらせてから渡米することをお勧め致します(分割渡航の方は実地訓練と平行して座学を受講されても問題ないかと思います。 |
