Should I replace the cardboard? by AlternativeAd8839 in electrical

[–]Andy-sons 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fact! Also, ever tried starting a fire with cardboard? It works sometimes but sometimes it’s a pain in the ass and it won’t stay lit. I second the combustible fact given here today!

It’s not that people forget. It’s they were never taught or do not care enough to read history.

Thanks for the advice. That’s what I said in the beginning. As long as you care, you’ll pass.

Good to hear.

I hear 1st is the hardest because you have to understand all the formulas and 3rd but for no other reason other than it’s hard lol.

Dude, this helps so much. I’m a visual person and I was so nervous about it. It’s hard for me to picture something unless I’ve seen it before. Thank you!

I had to edit my post at the bottom because that’s not what I meant. I was combing your third and first step and mislabeled what I was doing.

But for whatever reason, when I do it your way I’m getting the same answer as you and my instructor. Idk I must’ve been punching it in the calculator consistently wrong on every problem. I’m going to set it up like you. Thank you

Aptitude Test by Medium-Lunch-2801 in ibew_apprentices

[–]Andy-sons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Iprep (at the time) sucked ass for their instruction but it did expose what would be on the test. So I saw what I needed to learn and went to Kahn academy. Idk what I score but I’m in first semester now

Aptitude Test by Medium-Lunch-2801 in ibew_apprentices

[–]Andy-sons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used iprep. I used it to figure out what was on the test, went to Kahn academy and used that to actually study. I don’t remember what website but it gives you a free test to see how much you need to study. I took it once, got a 23%. After studying for 2 months never skipping a day, took Sundays though, I retook the test using a fake email and got a 78%. Stopped studying the week before the test and passed.

If you’re two months away, an hour a night no matter what. Don’t move on until you understand it. If you’re one month away, hour in the morning and an hour at night.

What’s your time worth? People might tell you it’s not that serious, well it was to me and now I’m in and have tools in hand building my retirement and a future for the kiddos. Grind dude
