Week of Sept 21: Open book is not an advantage
"Open book" is the most misunderstood thing about this exam. Everybody hears it and relaxes a little. Wrong reaction. Open book doesn't mean the answers are handed to you. It means they get to ask harder questions, because they know you can look it up. The lookup IS the test. Here's what it looks like in the chair. You hit a question you know cold in principle. You open the book. Forty seconds finding the section. Another forty deciding which of two rules governs. Twenty more on a footnote you didn't expect. One question, a minute forty - and you got it right. Do that fifteen times and you've burned 25 minutes finding things you already knew. That's not a knowledge problem. It's not even a pacing problem. It's a navigation problem, and it has its own drill. THE TAB TRAP Most people prep their book by tabbing everything. Forty tabs, colour-coded, beautiful. Then under pressure, forty tabs is the same as zero - now you're searching your tabs instead of the book. Tab by decision, not by section. The question in your head is never "where is Section 12." It's "what do I open when a question asks me to size a conductor." Different thing entirely. Twelve tabs, max. Each one a decision you'll actually have to make. THIS WEEK'S DRILL: TEN COLD LOOKUPS Timer on. 60 seconds per lookup. Book closed between each one. Electrical - run these ten: 1. Termination temperature limitations (4-006) 2. Allowable ampacity, copper, in raceway or cable (Table 2) 3. Small-conductor overcurrent cap (14-104(2)) 4. Adjustment for more than 3 conductors in a raceway (Table 5C) 5. Conduit and tubing fill (Tables 6A-6K) 6. Overcurrent device rating for conductors, general use (Table 13) 7. Dwelling unit receptacle spacing (Section 26) 8. Motor full-load current, three-phase and single-phase (Tables 44/45) 9. Minimum bonding conductor size (Table 16) 10. Working space around equipment (2-308) Not electrical? Build your own ten off your trade's main reference - the ten things you'd have to look up no matter how ready you are.

Midweek check: 5 lookups, 90 seconds each
This week's drill was about speed. This is the test. Five questions. Clean book: no tabs, no notes, only the index and table of contents. Timer on, 90 seconds per question.

Week of Oct 5: Your tabs won't be in the exam room
A candidate a week out from his second Red Seal posted his plan: code drills every night with his own tabbed codebook. Then he mentioned he can't bring that book into the exam. His speed lives in the tabs, not in his head. Before anything else this week: find out exactly what codebook your province allows on exam day. This week's drill (clean book, timer on): - 20 code lookups using only the index and table of contents - Log the time for each one - Anything over 90 seconds goes on your weak list. Redo that list on Friday Post your average lookup time below. We'll compare.
