Sample EAMAC Concours Technicien Practice Questions

1What is the limit of (e^(2x) - 1) / x as x approaches 0?
A.0
B.2
C.Infinity
D.1
Explanation: Using the standard derivative limit definition for f(x) = e^(2x) at x = 0, the limit is f'(0). Since f'(x) = 2*e^(2x), f'(0) = 2*e^0 = 2. Alternatively, applying L'Hopital's rule: lim (2*e^(2x)) / 1 = 2.
2What is the derivative f'(x) of the function f(x) = (3x^2 - 1) * e^x?
A.(3x^2 + 6x + 1) * e^x
B.(6x - 1) * e^x
C.(3x^2 + 6x - 1) * e^x
D.6x * e^x
Explanation: Applying the product rule (u*v)' = u'*v + u*v' with u(x) = 3x^2 - 1 (so u'(x) = 6x) and v(x) = e^x (so v'(x) = e^x): f'(x) = 6x * e^x + (3x^2 - 1) * e^x = (3x^2 + 6x - 1) * e^x.
3A two-variable statistical series has the points (1, 3), (2, 5), (3, 4) and (6, 8). What is its mean point G?
A.G(3, 5)
B.G(3, 4.5)
C.G(2.5, 4.5)
D.G(12, 20)
Explanation: The mean point has coordinates (x̄, ȳ). Here x̄ = (1 + 2 + 3 + 6)/4 = 12/4 = 3 and ȳ = (3 + 5 + 4 + 8)/4 = 20/4 = 5, so G(3, 5). Every least-squares regression line passes through G.
4What is the exponential trigonometric form of the complex number z = 1 + i * sqrt(3)?
A.4 * e^(i * pi / 3)
B.sqrt(2) * e^(i * pi / 3)
C.2 * e^(i * pi / 3)
D.2 * e^(i * pi / 6)
Explanation: The modulus is |z| = sqrt(1^2 + (sqrt(3))^2) = sqrt(1 + 3) = sqrt(4) = 2. Factoring out 2 gives z = 2 * (1/2 + i * sqrt(3)/2). Since cos(pi/3) = 1/2 and sin(pi/3) = sqrt(3)/2, the argument is theta = pi/3, so z = 2 * e^(i * pi / 3).
5In an arithmetic sequence (u_n) with initial term u_0 = 4 and common difference r = 3, what is the value of the 20th term, u_20?
A.60
B.61
C.67
D.64
Explanation: The general term of an arithmetic sequence is u_n = u_0 + n * r. For n = 20, u_20 = 4 + 20 * 3 = 4 + 60 = 64.
6What is the value of the definite integral of 1/x from x = 1 to x = e?
A.1
B.e - 1
C.e
D.0
Explanation: An antiderivative of 1/x is ln|x|. Evaluating between 1 and e: [ln(x)]_1^e = ln(e) - ln(1) = 1 - 0 = 1.
7What is the real solution x to the equation ln(2x - 3) = ln(x + 5)?
A.No real solution exists
B.x = 2
C.x = 8
D.x = -2
Explanation: The domain requires 2x - 3 > 0 (x > 1.5) and x + 5 > 0 (x > -5), so x > 1.5. Because the natural logarithm is strictly increasing, ln(a) = ln(b) iff a = b. Equating arguments: 2x - 3 = x + 5 ==> 2x - x = 5 + 3 ==> x = 8. Since 8 > 1.5, x = 8 is the valid unique solution.
8For a geometric sequence with initial term v_0 = 2 and common ratio q = 3, what is the sum S_4 = v_0 + v_1 + v_2 + v_3 of the first 4 terms?
A.81
B.26
C.80
D.54
Explanation: Using the geometric series formula S_n = v_0 * (1 - q^n) / (1 - q) with n = 4: S_4 = 2 * (1 - 3^4) / (1 - 3) = 2 * (1 - 81) / (-2) = -160 / -2 = 80. Alternatively, direct addition: 2 + 6 + 18 + 54 = 80.
9A fair 6-sided die is rolled 5 times independently. What is the probability of rolling an ace (face with 1 dot) exactly twice?
A.625 / 7776 (approximately 0.080)
B.250 / 7776 (approximately 0.032)
C.1250 / 7776 (approximately 0.161)
D.3125 / 7776 (approximately 0.402)
Explanation: This follows a binomial distribution B(n = 5, p = 1/6). The probability of k = 2 successes is P(X = 2) = (5 choose 2) * (1/6)^2 * (5/6)^3 = 10 * (1/36) * (125/216) = 1250 / 7776 approx 0.16075.
10For a two-variable series, the linear correlation coefficient is r = -0.98. How should this be interpreted?
A.A weak correlation, so a linear fit is pointless
B.A strong positive linear correlation
C.An error, because r must lie between 0 and 1
D.A strong negative linear correlation
Explanation: r always lies between -1 and 1. Its sign gives the direction of the trend and |r| close to 1 means the points lie close to a line. With r = -0.98 the points are nearly aligned on a line with negative slope, so a linear adjustment is justified.

About the EAMAC Concours Technicien Exam

The EAMAC Cycle Technicien is a nine-month course at ASECNA's school in Niamey, in civil aviation operations, aeronautical telecommunications, AFIS or meteorology, entered through a written concours at baccalauréat level. This independent practice bank offers English-language multiple-choice questions on the official Terminale-level mathematics and physics programme and on the French and English papers. It is a study adaptation, not an official translation or a simulation of the written papers.

EAMAC Concours Technicien: Suggested Study Strategy

1Work through EAMAC's past Technicien papers (annales) under timed 3-hour conditions; the 2024 papers set conditional probability and binomial trials, an integral sequence, complex transformations, spring and inclined-plane mechanics, and a Laplace-force rail problem.
2Keep every paper above 5/20, because any lower mark is eliminatory, and prioritise mathematics and physics (coefficient 4 each).
3Revise the parts of the Technicien programme that are easy to miss: two-variable statistics (regression line, correlation) and self-induction.
4For French, choose your exercise in advance (résumé-discussion, commentaire composé or dissertation) and practise its method.
5For English, practise the official paper parts: five comprehension questions, 20 grammar items, translation into English and French, and a 200-word essay.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the EAMAC Technicien concours a multiple-choice exam?

No. The four papers are written: mathematics and physics exercises, a French composition (résumé and discussion, commentaire composé or dissertation, at the candidate's choice), and an English paper with comprehension, 20 grammar items, translation both ways and a short essay. This bank is an independent English-language MCQ study adaptation. It helps you revise concepts and calculations, but it is not an official translation and does not reproduce the written format.

Which papers carry the most weight?

In the 2026 notice, mathematics and physics each carry coefficient 4 (3 hours each), French coefficient 3 (4 hours) and English coefficient 2 (2 hours). A mark below 5/20 in any paper eliminates the candidate.

Who can apply for the Technicien cycle?

Students with a scientific baccalauréat (series C, D or S) or a technological one (series E or F) who are under 25 on 1 January 2026; Terminale students may register subject to passing. ASECNA agents in a technical service (NA, IRE, MTO) and civil aviation or meteorology professionals may apply up to age 45. A candidate cannot apply in the same year for both the concours and admission on qualifications (admission sur titre).

In which countries was the Technicien cycle open in 2026?

EAMAC's 2026 table of open cycles lists the Technicien cycle as open in Benin, Burkina Faso, the Central African Republic, Comoros, Madagascar, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal and Togo. Registration ran online from 9 to 27 March 2026, and shortlisted candidates lodged their file with their civil aviation authority from 9 to 30 April 2026.
