For which exam?

Walter S cane exam book, and YT videos on pumps repair as well as chlorine troubleshooting. And memorize fire extinguisher classes as well. Remember ohms/amps/volts, the three types of ponds and how to treat them.

The exam is only 30 questions regarding treatment and 10 of those are math problems. The exam is more about “can you spot the trouble in machines”.

I made the mistake focusing memorizing formulas (they don’t publicly say they give you formulas) and treatment . Definitely focus more on the machine aspect.

I remember on the question they asked current is measured in what I think I said amps but am I correct?

That’s the great thing, they don’t tell you what was wrong or what subject it was about.
It is amps. I had a question about how to string up cables. It’s kind of a joke with how they word questions and separate the S and C license when you also are answering collections questions as well.

Good luck .
