Has anyone taken the aptitude test two or more years ago and then taken it again recently?

I’m looking for a verified source who can confirm if the math test has changed. There are people on Redidt that are claiming that the test has changed, and they claim we need to study the math section differently. Some of those people are selling new study programs.

If you’re like me, and don’t have time to study material that will not be on the test I could use your help. I would like to hear from you if you have taken the aptitude test twice - once two or more years ago, and again this year. If so, can you please confirm if the math section recently included harder questions that were not in the previous test.

It angers me to think that some people would try to make a buck by misdirecting people in their efforts to prepare for the test. For those who ask why I just don’t call my local and ask them; I did, and they said the test has not changed in years.

Local 40 Hollywood - Questions for current members

Hello all,

I have a few questions regarding the Local 40 Hollywood Motion Picture Electrical Apprenticeship (Wireman), who are tentatively opening for applications this April.

I have a few questions about the program, would I be able to PM any current members or anyone familiar with the process?

Would be an enourmous help.

Thank you!!

Denied

Applied twice to the union, took the test the first time back 2 years ago maybe 2 and half with no experience didn’t get In. Been non union 2 years now, got denied again. Just confusing on how spelled. With around 4k hours doesn’t move to interview round. Glad we get p wage on the jobs we do so it’s no big deal just doesn’t make any sense how a new person with no experience will get a spot versus soemkne with experience
