IBEW Local 98 Aptitude Test Hey everyone I was wondering if anyone could help me with my preparation for the aptitude test and if basic algebra is enough. I am 19 and i studied Electrical and Network cablling in 3 years of tech during high school and this is the first chance I have to get in the union. Electrical Work Specialties. Nationally, the Inside Wiremen position has over 200,000 Journeymen and Apprentices who are members of the IBEW. Just as important, though fewer in number, are the Outside Linemen, Residential Wiremen, and Telecommunications Installer-Technicians. Training programs vary in length for the four electrical work specialties.

I just took the IBEW aptitude test for Local 103 of Boston and we were only given a math section split into 5 sections, taking 6mins each. I managed probably 18 of 35 questions in each section, and of course we were given a peg board test.

Am i wrong to doubt this test? There was no algebra, just division, multiplication, addition, and subtraction. Unless i got cocky and miscalculated the basic math, i think i passed. But there’s 2000+ applicants. Was this the real test? It seemed too easy and too short to believe
