    For the past 7 weeks I have been attending an electrical review class. Last night was the last class. Tomorrow I'm taking the exam to become a Master Electrician. I'll have 5 hours to answer 100 questions. 100 very difficult questions. I have to score a 75 to pass. I'm pretty confident in my knowledge and abilities but I keep hearing that not many folks pass on the first attempt. I'll spend much of today the way I've spent much of the past 7 weeks, studying, and working practice calculations.
    This exam could have a huge impact on my future career as a management facilities electrician. Say a prayer for me if you get a chance and are so inclined. Thanks.

    Sweet!! Good job Man! I have a couple of guys that I work with that have just taken the test for the second time and failed again. From what I hear, more often than not, the majority of people that take it do not pass on their first try. Of the people that do, almost all of them have taken the pre-test course like you did. These most recent guy's that I spoke of did not take the class. They thought that by studying a bit from the internet that they could pass it. I will be taking the course like you did before I take the test. Here in Wis. we have 4 hours to answer 50 questions and need a 70% to pass.

    Again Congrats!!!
