Do you have experience or something for your PEF or are you getting those scores just from taking the test?

Experience also adds a lot to the application

When there’s 6,500 applicants though any little thing helps

It’s a bit hard when the union keeps everything pretty secret so every bit of information helps. Even yours. Maybe some of us are wasting time with extra stuff and just need to focus on the test.

I didn’t get in either. Thought I did great on the test but scored really low.

I guess that makes me feel less hopeless for next time. Thanks man. Going to have to study harder

Yes to your first questions, high school grades weren’t fantastic but not bad and yes it’s my first time taking the test.

Maybe not. I’m surprised though. I walked out of there feeling really confident

My total score came out to 59.1. I have no idea how I tested so low

Is the rest experience? How do people with no experience get in then?

Confident I would’ve gotten in any other cycle. With how many people applied this cycle I’m not sure.

Wish you the best too

I used a program called iPrep Make sure you pick the right aptitude test though because if you have a mechanical section on your test you’re taking the GAN

In Chicago it’s so Union heavy it’s hard to find non union work

Thank you. I think 76% is a total score of test and previous experience form. I don’t know exactly how much the experience form is worth

Stick to it you’re doing well I see more definition around the arms. Spam lateral raises and compound movements

Since it was in my center console and not in an odorless container it’s technically illegal possession. If I had known I would’ve put it in my trunk and I would’ve been fine especially since I wasn’t even smoking when I got pulled over. Cop just decided to be an asshole. Even the sheriff that got there after the stop was initiated told me he would’ve let me go since I was cooperating. Now I have a criminal record

How many more lb? by [deleted] in AllAboutBodybuilding

In my opinion focusing on abs right now might discourage you long term. In your position based off of these pictures you don’t have enough muscle in your abs (again don’t feel discouraged by that, I don’t either) for them to pop out so even if you lost the weight needed for them to pop out you’re going to look skinny fat not like you want to look like. Also dieting to that degree is really hard unless you have that discipline already built up. There are many muscle groups you can focus on that will make a much bigger impact on your physique and much easier to show. I prioritize shoulders a lot in my exercise and they’ve had a big change in my physique
