Do you love preparing cost-estimates, interpreting contracts, flexing your knowledge of lien law, wowing co-workers with your proficiency of permits and inspections? Don’t worry you don’t need to be geek-certified to pass this exam, but you do need familiarity with your exam books, exposure to the way questions are posed, and a realistic idea of how accurately and quickly you can find the answers.

Our Randomly-Generated Practice Exams are the ideal tool for determining how you will perform on the actual state exam and pinpointing which areas you need to brush up on to successfully pass on the first try. The system will track both your speed and your accuracy in answering questions, and then graph your performance so you can easily pinpoint which areas you need to focus and improve on. The next time you launch a test, a new set of questions from our pool will be generated, based on the same areas of content the state uses to compile the real exam. Plus, we’ll keep track of all your scores so you can actually see your improvement as you go. This effective tool gives our students a systematic approach to review & master the exam material and increase their overall scores.

Imagine how you would look if you accidentally threw away a winning lottery ticket and you were frantically searching through the trash can looking for it. Can you picture it? Now, instead of a trash can replace it with 16 bulky reference books, and instead of a lottery ticket you’re looking for a specific phrase or paragraph in those books. This is how most students look during the exam, it’s a little scary. Would you rather look calm, cool and collected, skillfully identifying key words and finding answers with ease and confidence? It’s an amazing difference that Contractor Classes students can see and appreciate in the exam room.

This test is all about managing and operating the day to day activities of a contracting firm, including pre-construction activities, project contracts, obtaining licenses, permits and approval, and construction procedures and operations. Thanks to our Interactive Flash Card series for Contract Administration, you will be able to pick out key words from the question and efficiently use your Quick-Location Tabs, indexes, and tables of contents to easily locate the correct page and paragraph quickly. You will be so familiar with the search procedures and book topics you’ll amaze the poor fool’s that went to a different school.
