From the Introduction
Reviewing the test strategies and tips in this book as well as taking the sample quizzes and full-length practice exams will give you a big advantage when sitting for any of the HVAC exams. You will learn powerful strategies for answering every type of question which will put you in a better position to obtain a passing grade.

The book's organization suggests a simple study strategy. First, learn the material for your specialty at your own pace and convenience. Next, take one or more of the short 50-question practice exams. Check your answers against the correct answers in the book. When you feel confident that you know the material, take the full-length 100-question practice exam. Your trial performance will help you pace yourself on the actual exam.

The passing score on the exams is 70%. If you achieve this on the practice exams, you should have no problem on the actual exams. You should note that the questions in the practice exams are not the actual exam questions, so do not memorize the questions and answers. Learn the material, pass the exam and become a better technician. Finally, keep in mind that, although scoring high is something to be proud of, passing is the main objective. Once certified, no one knows your scores unless you tell them.
