      Getting Started

      Congratulations!

      By deciding to take the Ironworkers Aptitude Test, you have taken the first step toward a great future! Of course, there is no point in taking this important examination unless you intend to do your best to earn the highest grade you possibly can. That means getting yourself organized and discovering the best approaches, methods and strategies to master the material. Yes, that will require real effort and dedication on your part, but if you are willing to focus your energy and devote the study time necessary, before you know it you will be on you way to a brighter future.

      We know that taking on a new endeavour can be scary, and it is easy to feel unsure of where to begin. That’s where we come in. This study guide is designed to help you improve your test-taking skills, show you a few tricks of the trade and increase both your competency and confidence.

      The Ironworkers Aptitude Exam

      The Ironworkers exam has three modules, basic math, problem solving (word problems) and reading comprehension.

      While we seek to make our guide as comprehensive as possible, note that like all entrance exams, the Ironworkers Exam might be adjusted at some future point. New material might be added, or content that is no longer relevant or applicable might be removed. It is always a good idea to give the materials you receive when you register to take the Ironworkers test a careful review.

      How this study guide is organized

      This study guide is divided into three sections. The first section, Self-Assessments, which will help you recognize your areas of strength and weaknesses. This will be a boon when it comes to managing your study time most efficiently; there is not much point of focusing on material you have already got firmly under control. Instead, taking the self-assessments will show you where that time could be much better spent. In this area you will begin with a few questions to evaluate quickly your understanding of material that is likely to appear on the Ironworkers test. If you do poorly in certain areas, simply work carefully through those sections in the tutorials and then try the self-assessment again.

      The second section, Tutorials, offers information in each of the content areas, as well as strategies to help you master that material. The tutorials are not intended to be a complete course, but cover general principles. If you find that you do not understand the tutorials, it is recommended that you seek out additional instruction.

      Third, we offer two sets of practice test questions, similar to those on the Ironworkers exam. Again, we cover all modules, so make sure to check with your school!

      The Ironworkers Test Study Plan

      Now that you have made the decision to take the Ironworkers test, it is time to get started. Before you do another thing, you will need to figure out a plan of attack. The best study tip is to start early! The longer the time period you devote to regular study practice, the likelier that you will retain the material and access it quickly. If you thought that 1x20 is the same as 2x10, guess what? It really is not, when it comes to study time. Reviewing material for just an hour per day over the course of 20 days is far better than studying for two hours a day for only 10 days. The more often you revisit a particular piece of information, the better you will know it. Not only will your grasp and understanding be better, but your ability to reach into your brain and quickly and efficiently pull out the tidbit you need, will be greatly enhanced as well.

      The great Chinese scholar and philosopher Confucius believed that true knowledge could be defined as knowing what you know and what you do not know. The first step in preparing for the Ironworkers test Exam is to assess your strengths and weaknesses. You may already have an idea of what you know and what you do not know, but evaluating yourself using our Self- Assessment modules for each of the three areas, Math, Problem Solving and Reading Comprehension, will clarify the details.

      Making a Study Schedule

      To make your study time the most productive, you will need to develop a study plan. The purpose of the plan is to organize all the bits of pieces of information in such a way that you will not feel overwhelmed. Rome was not built in a day, and learning everything you will need to know to pass the Ironworkers test is going to take time, too. Arranging the material you need to learn into manageable chunks is the best way to go. Each study session should make you feel as though you have accomplished your goal, or at least are a little closer, and your goal is simply to learn what you planned to learn during that particular session. Try to organize the content in such a way that each study session builds on previous ones. That way, you will retain the information, be better able to access it, and review the previous bits and pieces at the same time.

      The Best Study Tip! The best study tip is to start early! The longer you study regularly, the more you will retain and ‘learn’ the material. Studying for 1 hour per day for 20 days is far better than studying for 2 hours for 10 days.

      What don’t you know?

      The first step is to assess your strengths and weaknesses. You may already have an idea of where your weaknesses are, or you can take our Self-assessment modules for each of the areas, Math, English, Science and Reading Comprehension.

      Making a Study Schedule

      The key to a successful study plan is to divide the material you need to learn into manageable size and learn it, while at the same time reviewing the material that you already know.

      Using the table above, any scores of three or below, mean you need to spend time learning, reviewing and practicing this subject area. A score of four means you need to review the material, but you don’t have to spend time re-learning. A score of five and you are OK with just an occasional review before the exam.

      A score of zero or one means you really do need to work on this and you should allocate the most time and give it the highest priority. Some students prefer a 5-day plan and others a 10-day plan. It also depends on how much time you have until the exam.

      Here is an example of a 5-day plan based on an example from the table above:

      Reading Comprehension: 1 Study 1 hour everyday – review on last day

      Fractions: 3 Study 1 hour for 2 days then ½ hour and

      then review

      Algebra: 4 Review every second day

      Exponents: 2 Study 1 hour on the first day – then ½ hour everyday

      Reading Comprehension: 5 Review for ½ hour every other day

      Geometry: 5 Review for ½ hour every other day

      Using this example, geometry and reading comprehension are good and only need occasional review. Algebra is good and needs ‘some’ review. Fractions need a bit of work, grammar and usage needs a lot of work and Reading Comprehension is very weak and need most time. Based on this, here is a sample study plan:

      Using this example, adapt the study plan to your own schedule. This schedule assumes 2 ½ - 3 hours available to study everyday for a 5 day period.

      First, write out what you need to study and how much. Next figure out how many days you have before the test. Note, do NOT study on the last day before the test. On the last day before the test, you won’t learn anything and will probably only confuse yourself.

      Make a table with the days before the test and the number of hours you have available to study each day. We suggest working with 1 hour and ½ hour time slots.

      Start filling in the blanks, with the subjects you need to study the most getting the most time and the most regular time slots (i.e. everyday) and the subjects that you know getting the least time (e.g. ½ hour every other day, or every 3rd day).

      Tips for making a schedule

      Once you make a schedule, stick with it! Make your study sessions reasonable. If you make a study schedule and don’t stick with it, you set yourself up for failure. Instead, schedule study sessions that are a bit shorter and set yourself up for success! Make sure your study sessions are do-able. Studying is hard work but after you pass, you can party and take a break!

      Schedule breaks. Breaks are just as important as study time. Work out a rotation of studying and breaks that works for you.

      Build up study time. If you find it hard to sit still and study for 1 hour straight through, build up to it. Start with 20 minutes, and then take a break. Once you get used to 20-minute study sessions, increase the time to 30 minutes. Gradually work you
