I took my exams today
Core, package , Common Characteristics, Classes 2, 3, 6, 8 Classes 4, 5 9 .
Tanks Tomorrow
I have been learning about British law , European law and International law.
I have been reading about chemical reactions and flammable substances and flash points and toxicity and bio hazards and everything in between.
I was in a large group of lorry drivers. There were a few white van men and a couple of council workers who have just been brought into scope and they weren’t happy at all. Some of the blokes on the course were ADR holders that had let their licences lapse.
The course itself was hard , I had to read and re read most of the stuff I was given to study with to make it sink in. I completed about 150 revision questions last night over and over again.
I was feeling pretty confident about the exams after getting good marks on the revision paper.
Then the first paper arrived, multiple choice. I didn’t have a clue what the first question was, they all looked like the correct answer. I read the paper and the right answers jumped out at me and it got a bit easier. The first question answered itself further down because the more questions you read, the other answers give you clues.
The 2nd , 3rd and 4th exam seemed to go OK and I was pretty confident.
The 5th Exam was classes 4,5 & 9 and my mind was a blank , I messed up acetylene and thought it was transported in Bulkheads !!! what an Idiot! Its transported in Acetone. Then I messed up Cryogenic , I also messed up a few at the end. Out of the last 24 questions I think I got 6 wrong.
I don’t think that’s a fail so fingers crossed.
I started Tanks today and I have the exam for that tomorrow so I better get my snout back into the books for a bit. Ill let you know if I embarrass myself on the last exam but I have been told the Tanks is the easiest module.
Here’s hoping.
