Instructions for the Sample Test
As part of the selection process, you may be required to take an aptitude test battery designed to determine whether you possess the abilities that will help you succeed within the electrical construction industry. The following pages provide a description of each of the tests and some sample test questions. These questions are similar to those on the actual tests, allowing you to know what to expect on the day of your test session.
You may use these items as a sample test and then check your answers with the key that appears on page 30 of this booklet. A sample test answer sheet is shown on page 29. You may remove this answer sheet by cutting along the dotted line. This allows you to use it without turning back and forth in the booklet. Record your answers to the sample questions on the answer sheet.
You should read the sample questions on each test carefully and then examine each of the responses. Only one answer is correct for each question. Choose the response that you think is correct, then mark that answer on the answer sheet by blackening the letter that corresponds to your answer. When you are finished, turn the answer sheet over and check your answers with the key found here.
If you find some of the sample items to be difficult for you, you may want to review material that is similar to the sample items.
