Preparing for a Construction License Exam

What is the key to passing a state licensing exam?  Since most exams are “OPEN BOOK”, knowing how the code books are organized is a good place to start.  If you know how to find the answers quickly and efficiently, you can get through the first pass during an exam which gives you more time to go back and do the more detailed calculations.

Knowing how to use a subject index and navigating to the right section of the code will be a tremendous time saver.  Memorizing answers is pretty much a waste of time.  Remember, most of the code books are written by attorneys and are very hard to follow.

The question most frequently asked by construction contractors, such as yourself, is “How do I begin the process of preparing for my license exam?”.  We have researched the process here at ContractorExam.com, and we think that you will agree, the steps listed will help you answer that question.  Our “How to Prepare” page is read by thousands, daily.

What is the Format of Your Study Materials?

We do our best to pattern our materials after the format that is the most commonly used by the license exam industry today; writing questions from reference books (and statute codes) and present them in a multiple choice list.  This format most matches what is being used by exam testing companies like: Prometric, PSI, ProV, International Code Council and a few others.
