As a former aircraft electrician I did not have to learn codes like industry electricians but the math is the same. I found it really easy after I memorized the ohms law wheel. When I sat down to test the first thing I did was right out the wheel on my scrap paper. After that every math problem was a breeze.

I just took this test today and failed it was a bit confusing to me I really needed help with the book and learning where certain things are in the book but hopefully next time I will pass!

Keep at it! I have a day long workshop via Zoom as well. I encourage you to daily prepare as well.

Im curious how many viewers are nerdy home owners like me, vs actual professionals working or looking to work in the trade.

Great video! Thank you. Been servicing and repairing pools in another state for years, now that I am in TX I need to get my license and have no idea what to study. This helped!! Question, can we use any tab system in the code book or do they have to be like what is in yours? I bought the book on Amazon, it did not come with tabs.

[@Ndablue]

Do you know how to find a local prep course in Dallas area? I can’t find anything. Or would an online course work? Thanks in advance and keep up the great content!

[@abrelectric]

I have a full day prep workshop s, June 8th and 22d, in Mckinney or by Zoom.

[@adriannapowell5825]

Are you aware of any cheap practice exams that can be bought outside of taking the prep course?

[@abrelectric]

You can go to sites like Mike Holt for practice quizzes.

[@aneesamayberry1780]

I build pools. I just don't know what to study

[@abrelectric]

@joelandkateromeo8817 If you're in Texas, a focus on Article 680. Take short practice tests from Mike Holt.
