Use the following study aids to prepare for the exam.

  • Mainly, use https://hamstudy.org: Choose the Technician Exam, then read all the possible questions. Use Study mode for each sub-element, and complete each sub-element in Quiz mode until you’ve Seen 100% of the questions and have an Aptitude of 90%.

  • Questions with Just Right Answers (pdf)
    Questions with Just Right Answers (word with Arial font) – Download, print and bring this to the class if you don’t purchase the app and don’t want to rely on cellular data coverage – reading every question and just the right answer is what we used to use before we started using hamstudy,org.

Warning about practice exams: you only see 35 questions at a time, so you could take a bunch of practice exams, get passing scores, and think you’re ready, even though you’ve only seen a handful of questions. After taking the actual exam we’ve had students say, “I never saw some of those questions!”  Most likely they never read all the way through the Questions and Just Right Answers, because all of the exams use exactly the questions in the Question Pool.
