<div dir="ltr">Maia,<div>That's a good question. It was during dinner with Bill S. and Dave V. that I mentioned my prepping for the test. Bill suggested "what, you? go take the practice test and then go take the test."</div><div>I took both practice tests and did better on rigging. At the time, I was trying to study for both, but with this result, I decided to focus on rigging and get it out of the way.</div><div>The electrics test seemed to have a wider breadth of coverage. Or, at least areas that I have little to no experience with. For example, dealing with large generators and dealing with 480V 3phase gear. Studying those helped me better understand a whole host of other things along the way.</div><div><br></div><div>In the end, I took the entire three hours on the rigging test. The elex I took about 2:15 and spent the last 45 minutes trouble shooting a few questions that intrigued/confounded me. Wouldn't you know, had to do with 480V gear. No idea if I got it right as the correct answers are not shared.</div><div><br></div><div>Hopefully, after some arena work here in Philly, I'll make it a trifecta.</div><div><br></div><div>Later, Scott</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jun 10, 2015 at 12:21 AM, Maia Robbins-Zust via Stagecraft <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:stagecraft@theatrical.net" target="_blank">stagecraft@theatrical.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><p dir="ltr">Scott</p>
