Re: Minnesota exam
Get more answers right?
Study harder?
I don't know how you expect someone to answer this question.

Re: Minnesota exam
I was just venting. I found 95% of what was asked. My voltage drop, ohms law calculation, range calculation , etc (I am very certain it's correct).
Yep, gotta get more answer right or find out what went wrong for the retest.
Anybody who is planning to retake/take the Minnesota master test can EDIT: Private message me. Maybe we can go over possible questions and calculations.

Re: Minnesota exam
Minnesota designs its own exam. The last time they did a re-design (last year), out of 91 people who took the new journeyman and master exams, one person passed with a 70%. They had to scrap the new exam and go back to the old one because lots of people were very angry that the exam was obviously flawed. The attorney general even got involved and waived the statutory six-month wait for anyone who failed the new test.
The previous exam was not all that great either. I wound up taking it twice, and the second time I took it I thought I nailed all the code questions. I still got five of them wrong. One person at the state board even admitted to me that the exam had problems.
It might be worthwhile to find out what the pass/fail rates are. The old exams had pass rates in the 40-50% range. If a significant number of people are passing the new exam, then it's tough to claim that the exam is flawed.
