Errors on an Master Electrician Exam

[Cazelectric]

Good evening all!

I’ve taken my first attempt for Westchester NY and I’ve noticed (as well as other) significant amount of errors. Some were spelling errors, and questions without correct answers….

I failed by a few points. I will retake soon. I was wondering if others ever encountered such flaws with Exams before….

Sorry to say given the location I'm not surprised. Did they have a method that you could report questions that you felt were incorrect?

I haven’t inquired about reporting errors. On the 2nd attempt, if I come across errors again, I will write them down on my scrap paper and speak to the proctor then.

Why aren’t you surprised? Have you or know of anyone that has experienced this as well?

I know someone who took that exam a few times before he passed and his experience wasn't a very good one. His assertion was that the entire process was extremely corrupt.

I guess it makes sense to why there’s only 2200+ licenses. Out of curiosity, did he take his exam recently?

No about 8 years ago. Maybe it's gotten better at this point. He felt it was like a who you know atmosphere.

I almost feel that way from what I’ve been hearing… I’m trying not to blame the test and blame myself for misinterpreting some questions haha but I know for a fact that some were incorrect.

After researching a bit, I can request to review the test the first Saturday after the test date.
