A quick search on Amazon yielded this. Electricians are resourceful. Gotta pick up the pace already bud.

Just learn algebra. I would recommend more advanced algebra and know fractions!!!. Go take some classes ASAP before you have to test. Enroll in a community college or something. And use all the time they give you in the Math Section and English.

Best thing to do is attend a semester (quarter) or two at your local Jr College and take your basic math courses up to the highest level of algebra. I would highly recommend going to a classroom vs online. And they may have tutors on site that can help you. If you pass your classes, you're ready for the exam.

As for the drug testing, that varies from Local to Local. Here in Local 3, every Apprentice Candidate is given a piss test. If you come up positive for any of the big three (cannabis, opiates, cocaine) you're out.

I took the test 2 weeks ago and did not pass. The study guide they give you covers maybe 5% of what is actually on the test in the math section. Get a algebra book from the library, the study guide is 100% useless. Luckily I get to re-take it next week due to computer problems while taking the test.
