Shakey
Congratulations MacSparky,
Where did you take your exam, could you just book it as an external student, I am struggling to find a centre locally who will let me just sit the exam. As I will study at home myself. You said you waited 3 months for a number and a password. Was this for the online exam.
Where you able to go back to questions when you wanted to change anything, and at the end of the questions they all went through the system, not where you answer a question the result is final no chance of changing a mistake.
you can flag questions and review them at the end
registration process is up to 48 hrs before you sit the exam, thats it
exam itself is 30 quid. i suppose centres dont want your business cos theres no money in it, but theres nothing to stop them charging you say, 50 or sixty quid to cover your exam fee and the invigilators time
keep trying!!!
How frequent are the 2391 exams shakey? and what would you say is the best way to prepare for them? thanks in advance
there is about 6 or 7 exams a year next is june, then in july then oct (i think) you can get the dates off the c&G website, or i will post them here tommorrow (time permitting)!
registration for written exam is last working day of month before the month before the exam. So cut off for todays written exam was 31 jan. You get your written result within 42 working days. Practical resists are minimum 48hrs.
Best way to prepare?
Practical: time on the meter, Every chance you get, test your house, other peoples houses, anything - and try and include industrial three phase boards.
Ze, PEFC, PSCC, R1+R2, r1, rn etc etc these should be tripping off your tongue and be second nature to you
Written exam: get GN3 and the regs. Know GN3 arse backwards. Get past exam papers, as many as possible, and do them. then do them again
best of luck!!!!
