Alpharetta, Georgia "I recently sat for my Florida General Contractor Exam. Thanks to your program, I passed all parts with a 90% score. I did the home study CD course and found that it prepared me very well for this exam. I highly recommend your program for success. Thanks again."
Alpharetta, Georgia
Anna Maria Island, Florida "Last night my wife took me out for a Champaign toast for first try acing of the General Contractors licensing exam (02/08)! I want to send all the folks at ContractorClasses.com a very sincere thank you for the services you provided me. Your “Learning Program” prepared me 100% for the exam, and for that I’ll always be grateful. Please use me as a reference to your program, it’s the least I can do considering what you’ve done for me!"
Arlington, Virginia "I just wanted to say thank you and that the study material for the Florida General Contractor Licensing Exam provided by Contractor Classes, is INCREDIBLE! In one attempt I managed to achieve and 85, 80 and 80 in the three sections on the exam. Thank you again."
Atlanta, Georgia "The course works, I waited until the week before the April test to open the books and still passed the first try. I should have started sooner. Going at a fast pace of studying you should allow at least 45hrs. It wouldn't hurt to put at least 50-52hrs into it. I scored 85, 84, and 89 on the 3 sections. Thanks, Contractor Classes."
Baltimore, Maryland "Contractor Classes was the key to my success in passing the Florida General Contractors test. The online presentation and preparation was RIGHT ON. If you prepare as they explain, you will pass. My test scores were 88, 87, 94."
Bonita Springs, Florida "Excellent course, I passed with 95, 95, and 93. The highlighting guide and pre-printed tabs made it a breeze to flip through the books and find answers."
Bonita Springs, Florida "I was so glad to pass the December exam. Your material was very instructional. All the information on the self study guide was helpful. I was able to study at my own pace and time. Thanks."
Boca Raton, Florida "Just a quick not to thank you for your help with my course material and for your general assistance over the phone this past month. Both my boss and I passed the December General Contractor exam with very good results. You're company promotes a Great Approach to passing the exam. Thanks again."
Boca Raton, Florida "The home study course was just the ticket. I was able to study on my schedule and when I had the time. I highly recommend this course. I passed the April General Contractor Exam the first time and firmly believe I couldn't have done it without this style of preparation."
Boca Raton, Florida "The test is made to not let you pass and confuse you. But thanks to Steve’s teaching methods and updates of the latest test questions, the exam was not as hard as it seemed. Again, Thank You!"
Boca Raton, Florida "Just passed the GC test last week on the first try! Being a 55 yr. old women who hasn't been to school in many, many years that is a huge accomplishment for me & I couldn't have done it without this fantastic program & Steve's help, (Sorry if I drove you a little nuts Steve), but it was all worth it. Everything he reassured me about over the phone was exactly to a tee. Don't stress over the geometry, it's not worth wasting the time on it & he was right. Time is valuable for this test, so move on. A little hint is to really know your AIA Documents. I sat next to a girl who went to **** ***** ******* & she was so sorry she hadn't taken your course instead. I don't know if she passed but by the looks on her face, it's not likely. Again, I can't thank you enough Steve for this wonderful program. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in taking this test."
Bokeelia, Florida "Excellent course - studied one week and passed with all high 80's - practice exams were the bomb as were the flash cards."
Boynton Beach, Florida "I loved the program, and I passed with flying colors on my first attempt! I didn't want to have to sit through long tedious classes, so I liked that I was able to review at my own pace and focus on the areas that I felt necessary. I waited until the last minute, and ended up only having about 3 weeks to study, but I was able to get through the tabbing, highlighting, review and practice exams before the exam and felt very prepared for the test. My scores were 88%, 90% & 86%. This is an EXTREMELY difficult exam, but the prep materials gave me exactly what I needed to pass. Thanks."
Boynton Beach, Florida "I passes the exam! Only studied for 1-1/2 weeks. Your system was GREAT. It was grueling though. Thanks."
Boynton Beach, Florida "Very useful material. Well organized. All the information needed to prepare, study and test yourself before taking the real exam. Highly recommend. Well worth the money."
Blackville, South Carolina BrandonM@augustafiberglass.com "I wanted to let you know that I passed the June Florida General Contractors Exam on the first attempt with the help of your study at home kit. It was an extremely difficult exam, but your study aids were very well put together and covered the vast majority of items on all four parts of the exams. Thanks to you and the rest of the hard working staff at Contractor Classes for the help."
Brandon, Florida "After ordering your course in March I put in approximately 45-50 hours, outlining, tabbing the books and working with the learning program. I passed the GC exam on my first attempt April 22 & 23. Great software! You promised & You delivered!"
Cabot, Arizona "Thanks for sending out the contractor books so quickly... I took the General Contractor exams on August 14th and 15th and scored 100% on Business, 93.33% on Contract Admin, and 93.33% on Project Management. Thanks again for all your help."
Cape Coral, Florida "Thank You so much for the CD's, 1st time PASS!! The info was right on the money. Being a visual learner, and with my busy schedule I couldn't have learned the material any other way."
Carlsbad, California "Just took the General Contractor test in Kissimmee (Dec 2007). It was a demanding test but I sailed through the questions with confidence thanks to Contractor Classes study program. (95, 95, 93). I think the best training I received from the study course was learning how to navigate through the numerous reference books and materials to find the answers. I highly recommend the course to anyone wanting to pass the first time."
Charlotte, North Carolina "I made a 95 on day 1 and a 92 and 85 on day 2. Thanks."
Chattanooga, Tennessee "Your study course worked great for me, my average was >85%. I'd recommend it to anyone especially those who are out-of-state applicants. The best advice is to start and prepare early, 8 weeks of prep time. I've taken and passed 2 additional State tests since the Florida exam."
Chelsea, Michigan "The self study program worked very well with my schedule and work. I feel it helped a great deal in preparing me for the test. I passed with all 90%++ scores the first time I took the test. I would recommend this course to anyone that is working and has community obligations like I had while preparing for the test."
Clarksville, Georgia "Hello, Wanted to let you know that I took the December General Contractors exam in Tallahassee over the past two days and passed all parts - 1st attempt (96.25, 83.33, 85.00)! I have no doubt that my success was a result of the preparatory course I purchased from Contractor Classes. Thanks !!!"
Clearwater, Florida "Just want to say thanks. Passed the BC, Business and Finance with an 80%, 92% for Contract Admin and an 80% with the Project Management. Only studies for 4 long weekends. Study guides helped TREMENDOUSLY. Thanks again."
Clearwater, Florida "The big thing I can say is GREAT PEOPLE! I took classes from XXX XXXX School of Construction that ended up leaving me overworked, with a feeling of defeat, and a huge dent in my wallet. Their practice tests were way overkill, and did not represent very well what was on the real exam. I guess that for some people that would be motivational, but with my hectic schedule it turned into "I am so screwed"
Then I called Steve, we talked for 45 minutes on the phone. I met with him a couple days later, he again spent a bunch of time with me, mind you it was time for him to go home, he stayed late just for me. He took his time, showed me the software, offered me help and suggestions on how to pass the exam.
I finally had time to start his program on memorial weekend and as fate would have it, I had a conflict with my computer. I was devastated because I had set aside that long weekend to study. I left a frantic message on his machine and was ready to hunt him down and find his house. He called me on a holiday weekend! He walked me through the Vista issue and I was hopeful again. (I did do an experiment and used a different color highlighter for his material, and I can tell you I got most of the answers from him.)
Then as my luck would have it I got a severe neck injury the week before the test. If you were in Bradenton for the June exam, I was the big guy with heat patches and a Neck brace. I had enough oxycotin and muscle relaxers in me to lay down a horse. Seriously, I could not even sign my name, I had to erase it twice. I had no business being there.
A few days before the test, I received this nice e-mail from Becky, with testing tips. I will tell you what got me through that test, it was 2 little quotes on her e-mail.. "keep it simple, it is simple" and "you will do just fine". I was not proud of my 87.5% average, but considering the conditions and it was my 1st try, I can live with that. Thanks guys, YOU made the difference!"
Clearwater Beach, Florida "Thank you so much for a GREAT study course! I just got home last night and I still cannot believe I passed all 3 sections on the first try! My average scores were an 87%. It was the hardest test of my life but I could not have passed it without this course! Worth EVERY CENT!
In hindsight, I wish I had studied the Table of Contents of each book better (especially the thick Builders Code) because with only 4 min per question, it is stressful to look in each book for the best section/answer.
I also recommend bookends. My books fell off the table twice. Not a lot of space on the tables!! :) No books allowed on the floor.
THANK YOU STEVE and MEREDITH again!! I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to PASS !!! You guys ROCK!!"
Coconut Creek, Florida "Spoke with you on the phone after my exam, and wanted to let you know how well it went. Attached please find my scores for the General Contractor Exam-I passed with amazing scores of 90, 96.7, and 98.3! I ordered my software and books in September, highlighted them through December, and then went through the “Study Question” software January-February 20, the day of the test. The highlighting guide and tabs were complete and extremely helpful; I also placed the extra tabs on unmarked pages whenever the “Study Guide” software brought up a question I hadn’t marked in my books. The test itself was very grueling to say the least, a definite test of determination and will on both days, especially the second day. But utilizing your system enabled me to track down the answers verbatim for 95% of the test. Most importantly, THE QUESTIONS IN THE SOFTWARE ARE EXACTLY LIKE THE QUESTIONS ON THE EXAM, so I was definitely ready—as you can see by my scores!! Thank you again; I know I would be taking at least one section over again if not for this system; many of my friends from Contractors Exam School, Goldcoast, and CamTech will be taking the Contract Administration portion again to try and pass in April. I couldn’t imagine waiting that long for my license. Anyone who doesn’t believe this software is guaranteed to work for them can call me anytime they want at xxx-xxx-xxxx or email me. That’s how amazing the program is. Again, thank you very much!! Next one is the Roofing License!"
Cooper City, Florida "Thanks for excellent training for the Florida General Contractor exam."
Coral Gables, Florida "I want to let you know that I had my exams the last two days and I PASSED all of them, even in my first time doing it. My score was: Business and Finance 70, Contract Administration 75.5, Project Management 88.3 Thank you for your study program, it is really good and very effective. Best regards,"
Crestview, Florida "Nice program, very well thought out. Focuses your attention where it needs to be then inspires confidence to relax you. This is the one."
Crystal River, Florida "I only studied for six weeks and passed my Florida General Contractor exam on my first try in September. This study material was extremely efficient and I highly recommend it, but the test was BRUTAL. Don't waste your time driving to the contractor prep-classes when you can study at your own pace and at your own convenience."
Dallas, Georgia "Steve, I appreciate the well organized materials as well as your personal words of advice you gave to me. I had just 3-weeks to study before a family vacation the week before the June exam. I followed the materials, studied everyday, took a week off, then looked over the materials the night before. I passed the exam the first time with 93.75%, 92%, and 86%. Thanks Again, your program works."
Daytona Beach, Florida "Great course! I studied for 4 weekends before the exam and am sure I would not have passed without this course. Passed with 95, 90, 90 score. I could have done better but since I was so confident, due to the course, that I was at or above a 90 after 2 hours in each session I left rather than spending the time to find the really hard to find answers. Highly recommended."
Davie, Florida "I bought your software package and I passed the test on my first attempt 2 days ago (December 11th and 12th, 2007). By following your instructions and your method, there is no way to fail on that test. Thank you guys for your great product.... I recommend it to everyone who is thinking about taking the contractors' exam."
Davie, Florida "This is to let you know that your software package is very good. I just passed the exam at Kissimmee on December 11th and 12th, 2007. It tells you everything that you need to pass the exam. By going through your software package, there is no way to fail. Once again, I Thank You."
Davie, Florida "What can you say. This is the best study program PERIOD. Made answers easy to find and made the anxiety of the test go away. If you don't use this program, you will work harder and most likely not pass first time. Make the right move, go wit ContractorClasses.com"
DeBary, Florida "I met another gentleman who was taking the test as well, and had bought your course (I could tell by the tabs on his books). We both passed with 90%+ scores and were very pleased with the course. We both felt very well prepared. The test is grueling, but this course helped give me the confidence, and the answers! Thanks!"
DeBary, Florida "After buying my books over a year ago, I finally registered to take my GC test. In the beginning I was overwhelmed and was worried, but as the studying went on I got more and more comfortable with the practice tests. I took a few days before the test off and relaxed. I went in to the test very relaxed and ready to take my time and not rush. I was surprised how fast I had the test done and how much time I had left to check all my answers. The second day went the same way (other than the food poisoning I had from dinner the night before). I waited for about 10 minutes for my results after the test the second day and I was very pleased with my results. My first time taking the test and I scored 90 and above on all tests. Thanks again for your DVDs and tabs! Couldn't have gotten hear without it!"
Deland, Florida "After failing 3 times, I purchased your program and got the boost I needed to pass the exam. Not only did I pass but I also achieved high scores. Thank You"
Delray Beach, Florida "I think after never seeing any of the contractors books before and knowing nothing about them, then following your course for only 3 consecutive days and taking the exam on the fourth day and passing with an 87% is proof enough that your program is very successful. Thanks again."
Denver, Colorado "Thanks for the great study course. I scored 90% on the first day and 93.3% on each test the second day. Using your course, I was very well prepared. I would highly recommend your course."
Destin, Florida "I studied in my spare time and passed with an average score of 91% when a lot of other candidates failed. Your program is amazing!"
Dunedin, Florida "I just passed, passed on my first try with scores of 96, 92, and 90 (Aug. 08). While your CD based program prepares you well, what no one can really explain is how grueling the test is... nearly ten hours each day for two straight day! By the afternoon of the second day, my reserves were nearly exhausted and I was on automatic pilot. Luckily, your bookmarks and highlighting techniques made it simple to find the answers I was looking for. The guy sitting next to me got so frustrated that he left halfway through the last test!
I didn't realize how fortunate I was to discover your classes until they began handing out the scores 30 minutes after the last test. there were a number of people who weren't as lucky as me, and several of them had already failed at least once before! Thanks again for creating such a great program. It works and I highly recommend it, Good Luck."
Eastlake, Ohio "All your help is deeply appreciated. When I was told that I was taking the Florida exam in 6 weeks, I thought oh my!!! It has been 40 years since I had to study like this. I did all the reading and highlighting. The test quiz's helped the most. I would be glad to let anyone know to use your system. You do need to put in the time and effort though. Thanks a million."
Estero, Florida "Passed the February Exam! Business & Finance - 96.25 Contract Administration - 96.67 Project Management - 96.67 Thanks for the help!"
Fenton, Missouri "Business and Finance - 81.67, Contract Admin - 86.67, Project Management - 76.67."
Fort Lauderdale, Florida "Thanks, Contractor Classes, I studied for 45 days and passed all exams my first time in December! Study hard, everyone can do it!"
Fort Lauderdale, Florida "The course works! I received scores of 96% / 95% / 93% respectively on each of the three sections of the April exam. If you buy the material and USE the material, you WILL pass. Thanks"
Fort Lauderdale, Florida "This computer learning system has lots of merits. You practice daily and learn all the in & outs of the books. It is a process which requires full dedication but the results at the end are a passing score. Great system."
Fort Lauderdale, Florida "Your course was dead on with the information on the real exam. I've taken county exams using study material that wasn't even close to what was on the exam. I studied for about 2 months, 2 days a week. My last three or four weeks before the exam all I did was take practice tests. On in the morning and one in the afternoon to try and simulate the actual test. I'd recommend your program to anyone who wants to pass the exam!! Thank you very much."
Fort Lauderdale, Florida "I passed... 1st time. 83.33% on each test. There were questions not covered in the material but, because your system made you go through the books, I was able to find most of the answers. Thanks."
Fort Lauderdale, Florida "Passed the solar with an 85% Passed the Bus/Fin on the computer test a couple weeks ago but they only give pass/fail but I think I was in the 90s. Thanks."
Fort Lauderdale, Florida "I had paid for two previous general contractor exam courses before finding Contractor Classes, and both times failed to complete them. Their format was to read and read. Go to their location twice per week at night to follow an instructor while he just read to us for hours, flipping pages, fighting to stay awake. Most of that time was wasted and the pace did not provide time to reflect and absorb the information. Also a waste was the belief by the instructor to have us memorize formulas which he thought were necessary to pass the exam.
The Contractor Classes program made the learning process simple and self paced. You can stop at any point and go back over any material until you are ready to proceed. All the information you will be tested on is in the books. Therefore, there is no need to memorize formulas. All you need is a good knowledge about the content of each of your manuals and the ability to find it. Steve will direct you to all the important items that the state will ask you about. Do not skip his guidance as to highlighting these passages. I have now passed all four tests after completing the program. I strongly recommend reading the AIA documents completely. Because failure is guaranteed if you do not know where find the information in them. I used my own color code system while highlighting the books. I had to pause the presentations in order to create this color code but for me, it made finding information much faster and thus saved precious time for other questions. Be patient in your preparation, and it will make you very happy in the end."
Fort Myers, Florida "I had decided approx. 3 weeks before the exam to go for it, leaving approx. 2 weeks for studies amongst additional things like.... Life. I must say, I had reserves about taking a home study course as I hold both my Real Estate License & Life, Health & Annuities License. I had taken a home study course with the Life... License & very quickly realized I made a mistake. Not with this course, I was completely satisfied with this coarse & even in a short time, there was more than enough info with all the CD's to be able to pass the exam way beyond just a passing grade. Many thanks to Steve & staff for a great job... Now Lets Build Florida!!!! THANKS & GOD BLESS"
Fort Myers, Florida "ContractorClases.com helped me pass the first time. I received an 80, 85, and 80. This is great because I didn't have much time to study, and this class helped me prepare in a very timely fashion."
Fort Walton Beach, Florida
"I prepared for the Florida
GC Exam using ContractorClasses.com and must say that the preparation
materials were fantastic. I passed in September with a collective 92%. The
tools really prepared me to know WHERE to find the answers within the
thousands of pages of reference material in front of me." Framingham, Massachusetts "I wanted to write you to let you know that I used you program to prepare for taking my Florida General Contractors Exam. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I passed all four sections and managed to complete each exam with plenty of time to spare. This program was fantastic in preparing me for a very tough test. I spoke with quite a few people who were also taking the General Contractors Exam, most of whom had attended the local training classes offered at twice the cost of your program, and most of their responses were that they had covered only 10 to 15 percent of what was actually on the exams. I can honestly say that at least 70 to 80 percent of what was on the exam was right out of your program. Thank you for providing such a wonderful product and helping me succeed in passing the toughest exam in the country. I will recommend your product to anyone who is planning on obtaining their Florida contractors license."
Gainesville, Florida "The CD course is perfect for people who have schedules that will not allow them to sit in a more formal course. The test was difficult, and I would not have passed if not for the highlighting program. It organized the immense amount of material into manageable subsections. The study questions were incredibly helpful as well. mirroring exact questions on the exam. I was much much more confident waiting for my score than many of my exam-mates that took the traditional sit-down courses."
Hawthorne, New Jersey "Taking this exam as an out of state student would have been extremely difficult without Contractor Classes. It allowed me to study from my home office in NJ as well as when I was travelling. It is a difficult and tedious exam, however the material given to me allowed me to pass the first time. Steve and his staff were available before and after the exam and whatever the question - they know exactly where to find it. Spend the time and money - you will pass the fist time. Good Luck!"
Hialeah, Florida "I ordered your full package three weeks before the exam and spent only two weeks studying part time. Most of the questions on the test were right out of your highlighting guide, Word for Word. The questions that weren't highlighted were quite easy to find. I got a 95, 93.33, and 91.67 my first time! A bunch of the other people taking the test were complaining about what a waist of time the classroom test preps were. The test was easy for me and I never felt like I wasted any time with your program. Thank you for your help."
Houston, Texas "I cannot say enough about this fabulous program. If you truly want to pass the Florida General Contractors Exam the first time, this is the program you want to go with. Steve and his staff are fabulous; extremely patient and helpful. This program is easily followed and understood. Do not be fooled into thinking you have to go to class to pass this exam, many of the people that took the exam with me who did attend classes did not pass. If you want to pass, this is the program that will get you there!"
Jensen Beach, Florida "Just wanted to let you know that I just passed the Florida Building Contractor Exam with flying colors this week. I received a 98.75% on day 1, 92% AM and 90% PM on day 2. It would have been impossible without your system. It worked great. The test was much more difficult than I anticipated. Anyhow, just wanted to let you guys know that everything went great. THANKS!"
Jacksonville, Florida "Excellent information that was focused and helped me pass the October contractor exam."
Jacksonville, Florida "Excellent course. Passed the April GC exam 1st try. Results, 100%, 100%, 95%. Highly recommend this course."
Jacksonville, Florida "The cd study course was a great tool. The test was difficult but fair and I used every minute to take the CGC exam and passed the first time."
Jacksonville, Florida "I attended a class through XXX Construction School, but did not pass the exam. I purchased some study material from ContractorClasses.com and successfully passed the test. The learning material was "right on point" and I have since referred this school to other friends seeking their Contractors license."
Jacksonville, Florida "Steve, I can't thank you enough. I prepared using your Highlighting Disks, Study Questions and Finally the Practice Exams. I do not think I could have been more prepared. 92, 95 & 95 on the June Exam... No Worries. Thanks again."
Jacksonville, Florida "Hello... I just wanted to tell you how well-prepared I felt going into the December General contractor's exam earlier this week due to the home study software from Contractor Classes. This was my first time taking the exam and I passed all three sections with scores in the 90's. The course was great with the highlighting and the tabbing. I knew where to look for over 75% of the question on the first pass... most of the remainder just took some extra searching. The course does a really good job getting you familiar with the books, which of course is the point. Just wanted to let you know how happy I was with the preparation... money well spent. I will be sure to recommend Contractor Classes to my colleagues who plan to take the exam."
Jacksonville, Florida "I passed on the first try! Your program was fantastic! Thank You."
Jacksonville, Florida "The CD program is an excellent study tool for passing the exam. Without the exam review, study questions, and practice exams, I would not have passed. If I would have had more time to use the study material my grade would have been even higher. Don't do what I did, start studying as soon as you can. I only had 4 days and I passed the first time. I was lucky."
Jensen Beach, Florida treasurecoastdouglas@gmail.com "Business and Finance - 86%, Contract Administration - 88%, Project Management - 94%. I only had on month to study. Your program works. Thank You."
Kendallville, Indiana "Thank you for a great study course. I studied from August to October and passed the Florida Residential Contractor exam with an average of 86%. All of the hard work was done for me. The study questions were very helpful. I highly recommend this course to anyone thinking of taking the Florida exam!!!!"
Kissimmee, Florida "I ordered these course 17 day before the test. you don't imagine how much it help me, if you follow the instruction diligently and put the effort, you'll pass the test. is critical on the exams; (I strongly recommend) English is my second language."
Lakeland, FL "I Passed!!!! Thank you so much... It was grueling, but the study program and advice helped immensely. To all those who are considering this program, there is more help than just the study program. I called several times and received help all along the way. Also, all the pieces of advice offered on the cd's are VERY important. Pencils... Who would have thought. Curious? Get the program. Thanks."
Lake Worth, FL "I was upgrading my license from residential contractor to general contractor. I only purchased the practice exam software. By taking the practice exams several times each, I was able to refine my knowledge base. My State exam scores were 94, 85, and 86. I attribute my scores to the software and a very satisfied customer. Two thumbs up."
Lake Worth, Florida "I ordered the Contractor course January 17th. It was delivered to me early evening January 18th, and I began studying on the 19th. I just took the test in Kissimmee February 14th and 15th. Not only did I pass, but I passed with a low score of 83% and a high score of 96.25%. Thank you so much for your well structured program and for the guidance and test taking hints you included to help us all succeed."
Land O Lakes, Florida "Steve, passed the test the first time with a 96% on Business and Finance, 95% on Contract Administration and 90% on Project Management. Pretty certain I would not have scored anywhere near that without your course. There just isn't enough time for the CA and PM parts without knowing those books backward and forward. The highlighting part of your program was great. It gave me a look at each book as you narrated; a great overview of exactly what's covered on the exam. The study questions really helped though. Many questions on the exam were so very close to the questions in your course. So I knew where to look for the answers. In addition to your course, I took each book and just flipped through every page at lunch for several weeks to get a feel for the material in each chapter. This helped me to figure our where to look for any questions that I had not seen. I knew right where to look for almost everything. So, thanks again for your course and the help you have given since passing."
Largo, Florida "Your study program is very well put together, if it is done just like it is set up and you put the time in you can pass on your first try. Studying for me is tough, I am a hands on person. I can't believe I passed. Thanks for all your support."
Largo, Florida "Thanks for the advice to use the outline program. I was in the 80% to 85% scoring on all sections for my Residential Contractor Certification Exam. I put about 60 hours of study time in at home over a month and couldn't believe how prepared I was when I finished the first day of testing. People I talked to taking the exam at the testing site who used other exam prep company's' classes didn't feel the same way. Thanks for making the first time testing a charm."
Largo, Florida "Becky & all, I want to thank you all for the system you have set up. It made taking the test easy (at least I can say that now lol...) I'm very pleased with the results I achieved (85% average score). Thanks for a fantastic program."
Largo, Florida "I just finished the testing today. I was very pleased with my results (an average score of 85%). I started the study three months ago, but my business was so busy that I couldn't take the test until now. With only on week (evenings) to refresh, I felt comfortable while taking the exam. I really liked your tab system, it made lookups a lot faster. Thanks for all your help."
Lauderdale by the Sea, Florida "I passed all three sections on the first attempt 93, 87, and 90. The course was invaluable, I found the updated test questions to be extremely helpful."
Lehigh Acres, Florida "I was going to go to an onsite learning school however I decided to purchase the CD software and I ended up passing all parts of the September General Contractor exam with flying colors. Spoke to several of the other students at the test who attended the onsite schools and they stated that 50% of the time in the lectures all they talked about was war stories. Thanks....."
Little Rock, Arkansas "I just wanted to say thanks. I just finished taking the exam and I passed with room to spare on all sessions. I must say that if I had not had your prep course, I would not have passed. The past two days have been extremely stressful; but thanks to Contractor Classes, I survived. Thanks again."
Lincoln, Nebraska cleininger@camerongeneralcontractors.com "I wanted to let you people know that I did have a successful time at the testing. I passed all three phases with only three weeks of prep time. I really needed to have one more week but it worked out. Business & Finance 71.5, Contract Admin 80, Project management 76.67. With traveling from Nebraska to Florida, I wanted to make sure I could pass the first time. Thank you for making this possible your program really prepared me to do it."
Live Oak, Florida ACED IT FIRST TIME THROUGH, 98, 94, 95, (October, 06). Second day was tired from alarm system malfunction at hotel but was so well prepared that I passed with a 94 in the am session even after falling asleep in the exam prior to the test. I took 9 of your practice tests and feel everything I've learned to be extremely valuable, even if it wasn't on the exam. I have recommended your program to several people I met at the exam (all of whom failed by the way) who studied through other programs. Thanks Exceedingly. Mark Wilkinson (Owner ProFinish Interiors, NOW ProFinish Interiors and Construction LOL) THANKS AGAIN
Louisville, Kentucky "I was very pleased with the at home study program. I prepared for the exam while working 10 to 14 hours per day and an additional 3 hours of driving time. I ordered my study materials only 4 weeks before the June exam and still passed on my first attempt scoring > 87% on all parts. I found the material easy to use and very applicable."
Macedonia, Ohio "Your program is great, it allowed me to study day or night whenever my schedule would permit."
Magnolia, Texas "The course and the support from you and your team awarded me success. I passed the test with a high average (there were many failures). I recommend this process to anyone seriously wanting to pass their exam. Way to go!!"
Malvern, Ohio "I was a client of Contractor Classes in 2006. I found all their study guides and materials very professional and easy to follow. With my winter work schedule I was able to dedicate about two months to study and prepare for the most brutal exam I have ever taken, and I have been involved in the Construction Business for 30 years! I passed all parts of my exam on the first go round. I credit this success to two points: (1) Having excellent study material. (2) Having the time to spend to study and prepare."
Margate, Florida "How do I begin to thank you? The course was everything you said it was and more. The CD's were easy to follow and the highlighting tips were great. I passed the first time without any trouble. Steve and Becky were just a phone call away and never once was I ever put off to the side. They answered my calls ASAP and were so helpful and there on the spot with there support, just WONDERFUL people. I highly recommend anyone interested in taking the General Contractor Test not to waste time with other programs. Contractor Classes is the one that works."
Melbourne, Florida "Thanks. The detailed organized format that contractor classes put together made the Business and Finance part of the exam a breeze. There was a significant difference in my score and my comfort level as related to the Business and Finance you prepared me for and the specialty/trade exam I prepared for on my own. The difference made me really appreciate your material, it was money well spent. I look forward to now finishing up and taking my building contractors exam."
Merritt Island, Florida "I did pass the December test for GC with an 88 in Business and Finance, 73 in Contract Administration and 85 in Construction Management. It was a wonderful early Christmas gift. I enjoyed this computer class and not having to schedule live classes and practice sessions. I have already begun recommending it to others. Thank you Steve & Staff for your program."
Miami, Florida "I just passed my state of Florida's General Contractor examination, and without a doubt I owe a great part of my success to the materials & course from "Contractor Classes". The course and materials are of the highest quality. Everything is very well organized and extremely well presented. I found the ability to prepare at home (with full telephone support when needed) to be the most effective manner to prepare for this test. The practice sessions, test and latest examination questions prepared me well beyond what I could have done had I just purchased the books and studied by myself. If you are truly serious about preparing and passing your GC examination, this course will be the single most important thing you will do in achieving that goal - worth every Dollar. Thank you for all your help Steve, and thanks to all the folks at Contractor Classes."
Miami, Florida "The information provided on your CDs covers the full spectrum of all the course titles and texts, I'll recommend them highly."
Miami, Florida "The tests were brutal but, the study materials more than adequate. If you have faith in God, Pray, Make the time, Follow the instructions and Use your common sense, you can make it. I passed on my first try."
Miami, Florida "Excellent program, I passed December GC Exam. My scores were 87.5, 83.3, & 88.3. The test was very difficult. This program is the BEST. Thanks, to Contractor Classes and Staff."
Miami, Florida "I tried other classes but thanks to your help, I finally passed the GC exam in December. I strongly recommend your program. This is the best material by far. Thanks."
Miami, Florida "I just want to say thank you for your help. I passed the exam of April in Miami at first attempt with 80, 90 and 92, and have to know the limitation of the idiom. My English is not very good, but your program is excellent for success. Thanks again."
Miami, Florida "I contacted Steve on several occasions, and he was always very helpful. I simply followed the courses instructions and easily passed the first time."
Miami, Florida "I think a person can follow the highlighting guides, study the locations of where to find the information, take a few practice tests... and then pass the state exam every time. This program was "Dead On"!!! Thanks."
Miami, Florida "Your system worked perfectly and I passed the first time with over 87% and 90% in each section. Your self-study program was best for me, no time lost driving to any classes. Whenever I called, you answered any questions I had. I thank you and highly recommend your program."
Miami, Florida "Estudiar, estudiar y estudiar. Este curso te ayuda mucho a lograr tu objetivo. Yo use el curso online por casi dos meses y a pesar de estar en English pude pasar en mi primer intento, examinandome en English tambien. La verdad es dificil pero no imposible. Estoy muy satisfecho. Gracias Contractor Classes"

Miami, Florida "I had purchased other study programs for this test and did terrible on the exams. I passed this time with scores in the 80's. Your study program was PERFECT. Thank you so much."
Micanopy, Florida "Dear Becky and Everyone Else at ContractorClasses.com,
Middleburg, Florida "I was able to study at my own pace and at my own convenience. I passed the first time with a score of 89%. Thanks"
Miramar, Florida "There is just one word to describe your study system (all books and cd's)... Amazing... I got it on June 28, 2008 and after 4 to 5 hours daily I passed the exam on August 12-13, 2008 with 90, 95, and 98... The most important is to be very familiarized with all the books and review all the study questions and flashcards,,, Thank a lot!"
Monroe, Connecticut "Just had time to review the two Highlighting CD's & used the tabs. 91%, 86%, 86%, Thanks"
Mont Dora, Florida "I want to express my sincere thanks for helping me pass the State Contractors Exam. I had 3 weeks to study and passed with a 96, 93 and 97 on the first try. And I did not have to sit through any boaring lecture classes! A special thanks to your great phone help line. I was prepared!!"
Montgomery, Alabama "I just completed the Florida exam and scored above 90% on all sections. The highlighting guide and pre-printed tabs were extremely helpful. Almost every "look up" question was covered by the information that was highlighted and marked with a tab. I could not have been mores satisfied."
Naples, Florida "Piece of cake! Passed all sections with nothing less than a 96. Finished each section with more than an hour to spare. Due to a project closeout, bid dates and a family health emergency I wasn't able to get as much review as I would have liked. I even considered pushing my test back for the next go round. But the practice exams gave me the confidence to stay in it. They also showed my areas of weakness. So I was able to focus my efforts and only needed to have my lap top and one or two books to make effective use of my time. Had I not had the flexibility that this system allows I would likely have quit the class and pushed the test. I'm somewhat torn in giving this feedback, but at the end of the day this program helped me out. So go to the classrooms, sit in the cram session, staple your post its, I don't want the competition!"
Naples, Florida "I recommend this course to anyone in need of passing this test. I am in the middle of starting a business and had very little time to study, let alone go to any classes. Studying in the evenings for 3 weeks prior to the exam, I was able to achieve scores over 90% on all portions of the exam. (the exam was much more difficult than I anticipated). Thanks!"
Naples, Florida "Excellent Course! I was prepared and passed the first time in April with 93%, 96%, 98% scores. I spoke to others taking the test with they were lost when it came to the information. They went to xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx cram course. They were amazed how soon I was able to complete the exam and have plenty of time to go over the questions a 2nd time, just to double check. I would highly recommend this course to anyone. Thanks to everyone."
Naples, Florida "Just wanted to send a note - our department bought two exam review courses. It was great being able to review the material on our own time and continue working - we have a very busy office. I took the February exam and Peter took the June exam - we both passed the first try. The review course was certainly a big part of our success. Thanks"
Naples, Florida "I passed the June test with an average of 89.15% Having the material and being able to study using the CD's at my leisure is what made the difference. From Highlighting guide, flash cards and sample test, it all worked great. I really recommend the computer based training to anyone - very intuitive, well done..."
Navarre, Florida "The practice tests were instrumental in my success on the Certified General Contractor exams. I passed all three exams the first time out. The exams were brutal but not brutal enough, as long as you have the quality study material provided here. The practice exams were exactly what I needed to learn the books, all in the comfort of my own home. I would recommend this program to anyone looking to take the exams. Thanks Contractor Classes.
Norcross, Georgia "I am DONE WITH IT! Thanks for all the help."
North Miami Beach, Florida "Steve, you were very polite and helpful on the phone. I ordered the learning program, and with 4 days of study aced the April exam. Thanks G P.S. But why would I expect less from a GATOR GRADUATE!"
North Port, Florida "Your course is a great starting point for the exam. The test questions on your practice exams were right in line with the actual test. The Highlighting is very helpful, it gets you familiar with the books. My advice to anyone taking the test is "Study" and then when your done studying, study some more!... I got a 92 average on all tests. Thanks. Great Job Guys..."
North Venice, Florida "Thank you so much for such a great tool. I only had six weeks to prepare for the test and studied every day after work for two hours. Many people at the test had gone to the "cram courses" and the classroom type schools. Not only were they disappointed with the information they had been taught, but could not retain, and many failed.
I passed with a 92, 95, and 89. I love the challenge of taking tests, but this one was tiring. It was very long and had the potential to be overwhelming. Knowing where to find the answer was the key, or you get bogged down with frustration. Also having the course on my laptop was a big help as I was able to take it with me and review the night before instead of sitting around idle and stressing. Thank you again, I know I could not have passed without your course!"
Ocala, Florida "I wanted to take a minute to say thanks for a thorough program. I passed all three sections on the first try in April. The test was completely exhausting, but I knew that I had the information that I needed. I had most of the information marked and had enough familiarity with the books to find the rest. After going through everything once, I was able to tailor my studying to what worked for me and increase my comfort level."
Ocala, Florida "Contractor Classes gave me all the information I needed to pass the exam the first time."
Ocala, Florida "98.33% Business and Finance, 94% Contracts, 94% Project Mgmt."
Ocala, Florida "I just wanted to thank you guys for a very well rounded study program. I ordered your total CD/Book package in mid October, MONEY WELL SPENT!!! I just went for my CGC exam in Kissimmee on Dec. 11th & 12th and am Proud to say I came out on top with a 82.5%, 70%, and 83.33% on my first try. Thanks Again. Could not have done it without your program."
Ocala, Florida "Passed April exam first time. This is a very good course and I'll recommend it to everyone. A lot of people failed that used other exam prep courses. This course really teaches you to navigate a |
