    My plumber, apprenticeship test is tomorrow at 8 am. Thank you for all the time you put into these videos. You have been helping me study for weeks. 😊 Fingers crossed for a 46 year old woman trying to get into local 114. 🤞

    I went into My HVAC test COMPLETELY unprepared and arrogant at 47 yrs old not having done any classroom math in 3 decades....needless to say I failed abysmally but this time around I am not underestimating and want to go in OVERprepared....can anyone here say how close these questions are to the actual test?

    I believe question 28 is wrong. you have to add both of those taxes and multiply them by the cost of the item and then add that total to that item cost. so instead it should be $71.85
