The breakdown, in plain English

  • Get the right code book for your exam. Check which NEC edition your test uses before you buy anything.
  • Learn how the book is laid out: chapters, articles, parts, and the index in the back. Knowing where to look is half the test.
  • Set a schedule. One week of the series at a time, with practice questions in between, beats cramming.
  • Tabbing your book makes you faster on an open-book test. Every minute counts.
