Hi

Ive just purchased some papers from Bycon Ltd - Multiple Choice Test Papers Online For City & Guilds 2382 2391 2330 and 2377 only £1.75 each and they are pretty good,

papers 15,16,21 and 39...paper 21 is on motors only, a good one to practice on as this seems to be the area most people are struggling with.

there is one error on one of the papers regarding sychronous speed calcs but apart from that they are top class...

Got my exam next tuesday....have done loads and loads of MC papers..smartscreen, electrical quals.com etc
and also heavily revised motors so feeling pretty confident....just want to get it over with.

Cheers pal ............. have got the link you mailed me.

I come from a sparking background, but jumped ship to telecoms 20-odd years ago. I am actually enjoying revising with my son, but feel there is a lack of practice papers/Mock papers available to get a feel of the sort of question that may be fielded. I dont mean I'd like him to learn parrot-fashion (that isnt the answer), I would just like more examples of how questions may be worded etc etc......

He too has done the Smartscreen and Swindon-massive, and purchased quite a bit of extra-curricular stuff. That info you mailed me sounds good for 'Motors', as this is one area that he (and I) are struggling to get to grips with.

Cheers again

That's fine Razpag - if it helps the forum members out (especially at exam time such as now) then it can only be good.

 

[DYCHE4230]

Just off to do my final 2330 301 unit 1 multiple choice tonight KO 6pm........tell you all what its like in the morning!!!!!!!!!

 

[razpag]

20 mins too late from me Mark (its now 1820), but the best of luck buddy.

 

[DYCHE4230]

Well everyone the good news is that the 301 exam is not that bad....all I would say is that believe it or not the tricky questions are the health and safety ones....but thats only probably a couple of them and its really not worth reading the whole H+S unit just to get a couple of extra marks........

I'm all done now, 17th edition update on the 24th June, then relax for the rest of the summer and finally 2392 in sept....don't know what i'll do with myself on tues and thurs evenings now???
