I’m working to keep test prep free, simple, and accessible. Consider becoming a member for $1: https://buymeacoffee.com/markyfbaby This video provides a full breakdown of one unofficial practice passage and nine multiple-choice questions designed to help you prepare for the Reading Comprehension portion of the IBEW Electrical Apprenticeship Aptitude Test. I work through each question step by step, showing you how to find supporting evidence, eliminate trap answers, and determine why one answer is the best choice. The goal is not to memorize the passage, but to develop a strategy for attacking any passage by slowing down, reading each question carefully, and proving your answer with evidence from the text. The purpose for my videos is to help you clear the first hurdle of the IBEW application process by giving you a realistic practice run, showing you how to think through common question types, and helping you build confidence before test day. All OF THIS IS FREE! Although this passage is based on my experience taking the aptitude test, it can also be used to build the reading comprehension fundamentals needed to pass entrance exams across a wide range of trades.
