Then you'll do fine. You should if you haven't already find out from another electrician who recently took the test what exactly is on it. I know i HAD questions on my exam that we did not learn at tech school.

Any questions you remember and could not find the answer to? You should have paid the extra 20 bucks, you would have found out today after 1700hrs.

Look don't feel bad the first time I took it, I got a 74. Read the NEC cover to cover and I promise you, you will pass with flying colors. The second time I tested I got a 92 and the only thing I did different was read the code book cover to cover. A tabbed NEC book is a must for the speed factor.

At the Journeyman level the prep courses don't do a whole for you at least in Florida because for some reason there is not a lot of math questions, just basic box fill, ohms law, maybe a motor calc and a transformer calc (overcurrent protection sizing). The rest is all code.

Sign up now and re-test while everything is fresh in your head.
