Hello guys I'm Pookie. I'm not an electrician but I will take the apptitude test on June 27 at ETI. I'm very excited and also have some questions. Do I have a chance at becoming an apprentice? I dropped out of school with all f's in my 11th grade year. I basically remained a freshman with only 5 credits. However I have a CHSPE certificate. I obviously dont have the C+ grades in algebra so I'm taking the online tech math course. Its quite fun actually. Regardless of passing the aptitude test, do you guys think I have a good chance of becoming an apprentice because of my school background? Thank you and thanks in advance to everyone who welcomes me

Yes I will pass the Tech Math course and pass the aptittude test to the best of my ability.
CHSPE stands for California High School Proficiency Exam. The food chain goes like this
Degree>HS Diploma>CHSPE>GED

As long as you work hard in your Electrical class then that is what counts for now on.

anybody can get an HS diploma just show up and you will get one no work required.

Electrical school you will have to work hard or you will get kicked out so do the work .
