<title>AOSB Site Goes Live - Needs Your Help!</title>
<link>http://www.armyofficerselectionboard.co.uk/blog/aosb-site-goes-live-needs-your-help</link>
<description>&lt;div class="narrow right"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.armyofficerselectionboard.co.uk/img/post/speeddistancetime-screenshot.jpg" alt="speeddistancetime.info website screenshot"&gt;&lt;p&gt;speeddistancetime.info&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I know what you're thinking: '&lt;em&gt;Hmm, this looks remarkably similar to &lt;a href="http://www.speeddistancetime.info/"&gt;speeddistancetime.info&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;' You're right! That's why I need your help.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I set up that site a few years back to help my girlfriend with her preparation for the &lt;a href="http://www.speeddistancetime.info/"&gt;RAF OASC&lt;/a&gt; (RAF equivalent to the &lt;a href="http://www.armyofficerselectionboard.co.uk/"&gt;AOSB&lt;/a&gt; - I know, Boo!) It worked - she's been in a while now, and just got back from Afghanistan (fun and games).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I get a fair amount of traffic to that site from all branches, and I was thinking that what's helpful for RAF bods probably isn't as helpful for those with their sights set on the other services.. so: Here's a site just for you Army types, and there'll be one along for the RN types soon as well.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Your Help Needed&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At the moment, it's just a carbon-copy of the speeddistancetime.info tools and tests, but, I want to start moving them towards something more specific to the needs of the AOSB. For this I need your input:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;any questions/tasks in the AOSB that aren't/could be covered here?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;how can I change the existing tests to be a better fit (eg the current compass-bearings test is more for pilot aptitude.. how could I make it more relevant)?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;any info or links I could include that would be of use - like a resource page?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please let me know any ideas/critques you may have - either in the comments below, or, via my feedback form (the button for which can be found at the bottom of most pages on this site).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I won't be able to include everything - I only do this as a 'hobby' - but, hope I can accommodate some.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;As an extra favour - could I ask you to let others know about this site via forums, facebook, twitter or whatever (buttons below can help)?&lt;/em&gt; The more people and suggestions we can get on here, the better it can be!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;James&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;PS. Anyone with any topics for this blog, or who wants to write a guest-post that could be of help to AOSB candidates, drop me a line at &lt;a href="mailto:admin@armyofficerselectionboard.co.uk"&gt;admin@armyofficerselectionboard.co.uk&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;
