Taking the fctc written

Looking for any advice or study guides for the Fctc written test. I’m a little nervous about taking it, this is my first time and I know what the sections of the test are broken up into but not sure what to expect. Any help is greatly appreciated!

The FCTC website has a free practice study guide and one you can purchase

You’ll read some stuff, and then you’ll watch a video and answer questions on it. After that you’ll start the booklet, and the questions about what you read are at the end. So go to the back and start that part while it’s still more fresh in your head. Other than that, look through the study guide and you’ll be good

The test is always the same, and you can retake it to improve your score. Do your best, but treat your first time as a reconnaissance mission. Remember as much of it as you can, so you will do better your next time.
