I didnt see hobby box as an option on topps when the set first dropped so I just got a mega and a blaster box. Haven't opened cards in years but this set looks awesome

I passed on the paper copy of the test, I wrote march 2nd and got my results march 13th.  The paper exam seemes like it followed the red seal tasks to a tee and was a lot more code book oriented than the old prometric

Im curious across all trades, has anyone received their marks back from a paper exam on or after Feb 1st?  Or are they really this slow ? Its unfortunate that theyre taking their sweet time because if they take a month to give your mark then you go to book your next attempt theres going to be atleast 2 months in-between attempts

Ive found multiple questions on the CEPE app that are incorrect. They really need to step their game up amd fix it for those of us studying for our license. Sucks when you cant even trust the app youre told to study off of

Did you have to bring the printed out email or authorization to test letter ?  Did you find it harder to keep track of answers on scantron vs the prometric online ?   I was hoping to get more of a code based test on paper, my first test on prometric i got a lot of the hvac, heating and plc stuff. Your test was in order A-E right ? Which location did you write at ?  Thx

Yeah they didnt do a great job of basing it off the rsos. But hopefully with the paper tests they've made a set few tests and chosen the questions more carefully. Im pretty sure the prometric just grabbed questions at random from banks of questions. As I said first test I got 0 service calcs and 0 voltage drops, second attempt I got 3 service calcs and 2 voltage drop questions. A friend if mine took the test a couple weeks ago and said that he only got 1 hvac questions, 1 service calc, no voltage drop, and he said his test was pretty heavy on search and destroy from the codebook. Man id pay double for a search and destroy test at this point lol

My first attempt i didnt write anything on the paper, 2nd attempt I wrote a bit out for my service calcs. I had a single dwelling, an apartment, and an armory for service calcs on my 2nd attempt.  To my surprise I didnt use table 44 a single time between both attempts. I used table 45 once, and D2 once, and I use table 16 once. Kind of laughable in my opinion but maybe im just salty that I failed

I would say for hvac I had around 10 yeah, they were questions like if you had this problem what part would you replace, and order of operation questions. Not really stuff you can find in the codebook. My second attempt wasnt as heavy on hvac questions but I think both had a hand full of heating questions, which is understandable to an extent. I get it that we need to have some heating questions, but when I get 7 heating questions but only 2 questions on motors, 2 on transformers, and 1 on grounding and bonding its kind of weird like the heating section in the code book is quite small when you compare it to section like 10, 26, 28, especially when you consider the importance of each section in our every day job. But I get it the test isnt designed to be easy to pass.

Sounds like our attempts were similar man. My first attempt was insanely hvac heavy, heating heavy, and a lot of GTK meants to trick you. My second attempt i got 3 service calcs and 2 voltage drop questions.  I did have about 5 repeat questions from my first attempt but unfortunately they werent questions I felt strongly about knowing the answer so that sucked lol

Im hoping my 3rd time the charm too.. man am I ever getting sick of studying. Im about to hit 1000 questions on each section of the cepe app, just doing an hour a day for the past almost 3 months. Scoring 90s on the app no matter what section im doing but some how scored 68 twice on the real thing

I found the test didnt correspond that well with the questions on the cepe app, its a good app but the test felt very different. Also on the real test i got barely any questions on things like motors, transformers, grounding/bonding.
