Why study together

The exam is open book. Speed is what you practice.

Contractor exams let you bring your code books, so passing comes down to finding the right section fast. Working questions out loud with someone on the same book shows you where they look, and makes you explain where you looked. Studying alone, it’s easy to quit for the night. With a partner waiting in the room, you show up.
