so I am perplexed and upset. I take my grades a bit too serious and I hardly ever get anything less than a perfect score in code class and anything less makes me work harder and generally I end up debating until I prove my point. :ashamed1:
breathe in and breath out. perhaps you just need a perspective adjustment.
it's been a long time since i did JATC tests, but back before the dawn of the
electron, it was pretty simple. maintain a 90% GPA for the entire period of
your apprenticeship, you will get your pay increases on time, and assuming
you get the necessary hours to complete your apprenticeship, your ticket
will look just like everyone else's when you end up signing the book.
the journeyman's test? well, if you have a 90% or better on every single
national JACT test, they can't very well fail you on the journeyman's test.
the national curriculum is what they have to make their case on, and your's
will be fine.
when i sat for the journeyman's test, the apprenticeship instructor provided
the 600 question pool that the 100 questions would be selected from. everyone
freaked out, and studied the questions. i wrote the answer to each question as
a statement. i didn't need to know the questions, i needed to know the answers.
studying questions is dumb and fills up space in your head needed for answers.
then as i was told to take the test in the same state of mind i studied the material,
i stayed up the night before the test, with a quarter ounce of a class II controlled
substance, and a fifth of jack.
took a shower, ate some oatmeal for breakfast, read thru the 600 answer statements
i had in a folder, and took the test. i finished third out of 75 people in my class.
but i used restraint. i didn't eat any mescaline before taking the test. save the
mescaline until after you pass the journeyman's test, and you will do fine.
