im not sure yet, the lady at the front desk at he motel said a bunch of pipe guys and electricians were failing the test, but i dont go in till tommorrow. i took fagens test already, so i might not have to take it, but it was easy for me anyway. ill know more tommorrow. ill post if their lookin for more electricians. when they called me last wed. they said they didnt need anymore, but that may have changed.

| As someone who has taken Fagen's test and made 100% without use of a calculator or blue book then the people that are taking this test and failing it don't know pipe has a hole in it! |

There old test was a piece of cake, If you took this new test and made 100% than I been working with bar instead of pipe for a long time.

As for people who took the pipe test some time back and passed it, well great for you...lol
cause this isn't the same test...they just revised it and we were the first group to take it....yes it is a ****ty test...but the terminolgy is what is screwing people up...if you don't use the exact word they have as the answer then you are counted wrong...there are lots of other things that make it a wack test...anyway...I failed it by 1 this morning then took the welding test and passed...so atleast it worked out for me...not so great for many others that drove many many miles on budgets to get jobs...guess the nccer don't mean jack here and they don't care if you just worked for them on the last job for 9 months you have to take the NEW jacked up test... |

I worked for FAGEN 3 times in the past. I am NCCER Certified. I found this to be a "NCCER Type" test. You better study... my brother has been a fitter for 30 years and it was know walk in the park for him either.
