This effective tool will show you a quick and easy way to learn and remember the
code while you practice for taking the ICC exam. It will show you a
system of how to study the code most effectively with efficient use of time, and
at the same time train you become an expert on finding the answers that you need
to lookup in the code reference quickly and accurately.
While merely reading and studying the code can help you learn. it would take a
long time to master because of the extremely large amount of data, exceptions
and variations it contains. It is almost impossible to have all that information
flawlessly in your mind. In fact, that is why the tests are open book. The best
inspectors rely on the code book, not their recollection of the code. It is
extremely important to be right on the safety issues in the code.
If
you have a basic understanding of terminology and you study using my practice
question study technique, you should easily be able pass the exam first time and
become an expert on the code at the same time while making the most of your
time.
By
doing practice questions and the taking timed practice exams along with special
learning techniques this book will help you:
1.
Increase your speed at finding the answers making you an expert on where to find
the answers in the code book, this is very important because this is the only
way to be correct 100% of the time.
2.
Learn the answers to many of the questions that will be on the test and thereby
be able to answer them from recall memory, saving you precious time.
3.
Become an expert at managing that time during the test, through test taking
experience.
Quickly learn a system of study that does do not waste time and is very
effective in learning the material quickly and accurately. Using questions to
learn is far superior to just reading. When you read a question your mind in
forced to think, after all you now have a problem to solve. In order to pursue
the answer, your mind is required to interpret what that problem is, then
process that information, and finally find a solution through recall, or
research. This system of study will teach you how to both recall the answers
and research the answers quickly and effectively, in fact, you will find that
this technique can be used for anything you want to learn and remember
throughout your life.
Practice Questions
The
first section of practice questions contains hundreds of questions similar to
those on the exam. It is designed to help you learn the code and give you the
practice need to the find answers quickly.
Timed Practice Tests
The
second section contains are several Self-Timed Practice Tests, which will hone
your skills further, only this time with the element of time in play, just like
the real exams. When you are finished you should be a master.
Answer Section
The
last sections of the workbook contain tables with the answers to all of the
questions and are referenced to the sections of the building codes from which
they are derived. Checking these references will also help you organize your
mind as to the location of different sections in the code books.
Now, go into that exam room with experience, knowledge and confidence, and pass
that exam.
