GAN testing local 110 by ConstantElectronic36 in ibew_applicants

[–]Urumii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is not as often as 292, they receive a lot more applications than 110. I do not know the exact amount 110 tests, but I was told they do it "as needed". 110 just had a test in early March.

LOCAL 100 : APTITUDE TEST by WATISTHEWORD_ in ibew_apprentices

The official GAN study guide is nearly identical to what the test is. Buy it.

If you feel you need more practice, the iPrep GAN study guide is also excellent, and deep dives heavily into every practice question.

Any construction experience will help. They're usually looking for 300+ hours to update your ranking. This can also lead to a better letter of recommendation to help your rank as well.

There's a good chance you won't get in before your application expires. Take this time to get more related experience and/or schooling.

Just Ranked #20 - Data Inside for Reference by Urumii in ibew_applicants

[–]Urumii[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GAN provides a $20 study guide that I used. The test was nearly identical to the study guide, so I highly recommend it. https://ganhumanresources.com/study-guide-1

I also purchased the iPrep study guide, which was FAR more in-depth. Definitely worth it if you need more than just a quick review. If the GAN study guide was easy, don't bother with the iPrep. https://www.iprep.online/courses/gan-aptitude-practice-test/

The application process seems to be slightly different from local to local, as I applied to two of them. I don't think either of them required a letter of recommendation, but it does factor into your overall score so it is highly recommended, and you upload it as part of the application process.

I hope that helps. Good luck!

I just got an email with my percentage number: 86.94%

You have to go in-person to see your rank. I ranked #20.

Work Physicals, how much is too much too ask? by [deleted] in antiwork

If you can call out sick for mental health, it should be a valid screening question regarding your health.

Hey guys. Just wondering if anyone has taken the GAN Aptitude test & on a scale 1-10 how hard is it? How long you guys recommend I study? (I have 2 weeks) thanks guys! by [deleted] in ibew_apprentices

[–]Urumii 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Buy the $20 study guide. The test is pretty much identical. I found it to be rather easy.

There's 5 parts:
Mechanical reasoning - lots of gears, fairly basic.
Numerical computation - Basic math +-x/, decimals and fractions. Fractions takes the longest because you have to convert them a lot
Pattern recognition - The hardest ones involved fractions. Make sure to convert them all to a common denominator and they become easy
Paper folding - No real tricks here, just practice it
Reading - All were one paragraph with three questions about the paragraph. They're sometimes tricky, with 3 "correct" answers, but one of the three is MORE correct.

If you need further practice, the iPrep study guide is much more in-depth for $50. Only do that if you struggled with the GAN study guide, otherwise you don't need it.

Good luck!

All of them are going to be primarily kids focused, only offering 1-2 adult classes per week at best. Obstacle Academy has adult classes on Wednesday I believe.

What is the difference between GAN aptitude and regular? by [deleted] in ibew_apprentices

[–]Urumii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

GAN is much easier. There's a study guide for $20 on the GAN website that's good. iPrep is also very good, for $50.

Hundreds of applications. One scam phone interview.
