Jeff;

>Watch for trick questions, half the time its not the answer you may think. 
>Don't use your own materials or resources; you may have to "relearn" alot 
>of your design stuff like I did because of differences in design practice. 
>Stick with the study guide and the code book only. (I've got my own spread 
>sheets for wire sizing and system design, but that will only get you in 
>trouble on the test).
>Also once you pass, be ready for no one outside of this list to understand 
>or care. I'm proud of my certification, but so far it is not recognized 
>officially here at all, and most of my customers and even my competition 
>are unaware of the credentials. Considering how hard it is to sit for the 
>test and how hard it is to pass, I think eventually nationally at least it 
>will become "the" credential to have.

  Good Luck,

Ray
