"Last night my wife took me out for a Champaign toast for first try acing of the General Contractors licensing exam (02/08)!  I want to send all the folks at ContractorClasses.com a very sincere thank you for the services you provided me.  Your “Learning Program” prepared me 100% for the exam, and for that I’ll always be grateful.  Please use me as a reference to your program, it’s the least I can do considering what you’ve done for me!"

"I just wanted to say thank you and that the study material for the Florida General Contractor Licensing Exam provided by Contractor Classes, is INCREDIBLE!

In one attempt I managed to achieve and 85, 80 and 80 in the three sections on the exam. Thank you again."

"The course works, I waited until the week before the April test to open the books and still passed the first try. I should have started sooner. Going at a fast pace of studying you should allow at least 45hrs. It wouldn't hurt to put at least 50-52hrs into it. I scored 85, 84, and 89 on the 3 sections.

Thanks, Contractor Classes."

"I passed the December General Contractors exam. I used the material that you all provided to me online and it was truly an asset when I sat for the exam. The information gave me insight on where to find critical answers on the test and the information reviews were right on. I would definitely recommend this program to anyone who is considering taking this test. Without the knowledge received from your course I never would have passed. And I passed on my first try. Thank you so much for the information and program."

"I haven't taken the Business/Finance yet since they split them up and I can take that in Atlanta. I won't take that for another couple of weeks.

I aced the Contract Admin and Project Management portions on Wednesday though. 95 and 96. Your materials were great."

"Just passed the business and finance section yesterday with a 95.8 score. My Contract Administration and Project Management scores were 93.33 and 93.33. I am very pleased with the format an quality of your study materials and would be happy to provide a testimonial if that would be helpful. We are licensed in Alabama, Tennessee and Georgia and this was by far the best prep course that I've seen. I'm 33 years old and have been out of the "study mode" for quite a while. But, this guide gave me confidence and understanding of the material I needed, going into these lengthy exams. Thanks"

If you prepare as they explain, you will pass.

My test scores were 88, 87, 94."

"The home study course was just the ticket. I was able to study on my schedule and when I had the time. I highly recommend this course. I passed the April General Contractor Exam the first time and firmly believe I couldn't have done it without this style of preparation."

 

Boca Raton, Florida

stelablue@gmail.com

"Passed both sections. Morning was tougher - still got an 83. Exam room was freezing cold - shirt - tee shirt & jacket were not enough to stay warm. I think that. An only one sheet of scratch paper screwed up my math portion. Anyway a pass is a pass. Thanks for your help. Tough questions seemed to be the elevator recall and water/slump/air in the concrete mix."

"I researched many learning facilities and programs before selecting ContractorClasses.com. For me all the accolades and testimonials sold me. I selected the on-line program, tabs, etc for the General Contracting exams, and I could have not been more pleased. Passed with my first attempt (average 78. WOW, thanks Contractor Classes!!! The documentation and highlighting was dead on.

 

Although I do not recommend this, I only highlighted the 14 books and never practiced or took many of the offered study question or exams (Take them it is worth it!). Again I do not recommend that, however I still passed with only 12 hours of preparation! Don't cram like I did, but the online classes help and were unbelievably accurate and dead-on!

 

I met people at the exam who were on the 3rd or 4th try. They took other classes and I realized the other classes did not offer anything quite as good as Contractor Classes courses. I attribute my great success, with minimal devotion-effort that I committed, to the Contractor Classes group for the excellent information and exact help for preparing for these exams! Thank you for all your help! You may use me as a reference."

"Just passed the GC test last week on the first try! Being a 55 yr. old women who hasn't been to school in many, many years that is a huge accomplishment for me & I couldn't have done it without this fantastic program & Steve's help, (Sorry if I drove you a little nuts Steve), but it was all worth it. Everything he reassured me about over the phone was exactly to a tee. Don't stress over the geometry, it's not worth wasting the time on it & he was right. Time is valuable for this test, so move on. A little hint is to really know your AIA Documents. I sat next to a girl who went to **** ***** ******* & she was so sorry she hadn't taken your course instead. I don't know if she passed but by the looks on her face, it's not likely. Again, I can't thank you enough Steve for this wonderful program. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in taking this test."

"Your cd class was great. I would recommend anyone who really wants to pass the test to save their money, do not go to a four day cram class and take the time and effort to methodically go through your steps and do it correctly. My scores were 93, 95 and 85. Thanks so much."

"I loved the program, and I passed with flying colors on my first attempt! I didn't want to have to sit through long tedious classes, so I liked that I was able to review at my own pace and focus on the areas that I felt necessary. I waited until the last minute, and ended up only having about 3 weeks to study, but I was able to get through the tabbing, highlighting, review and practice exams before the exam and felt very prepared for the test. My scores were 88%, 90% & 86%. This is an EXTREMELY difficult exam, but the prep materials gave me exactly what I needed to pass. Thanks."

Thanks to you and the rest of the hard working staff at Contractor Classes for the help."

"I was always afraid of tests and I didn't believe I could pass the Florida contractor exam because I had heard how hard it was.
Well it lived up to its reputation about being hard, however with the CD study coarse I was able to pass the tests on the first time. When I went there, so many of the people told me that this was their second, third or forth time on one of more of the test sections. I would definitely recommend Contractor Classes. Thanks"

"Just took the General Contractor test in Kissimmee (Dec 2007). It was a demanding test but I sailed through the questions with confidence thanks to Contractor Classes study program. (95, 95, 93). I think the best training I received from the study course was learning how to navigate through the numerous reference books and materials to find the answers. I highly recommend the course to anyone wanting to pass the first time."

"The big thing I can say is GREAT PEOPLE!

I took classes from XXX XXXX School of Construction that ended up leaving me overworked, with a feeling of defeat, and a huge dent in my wallet. Their practice tests were way overkill, and did not represent very well what was on the real exam. I guess that for some people that would be motivational, but with my hectic schedule it turned into "I am so screwed"

 

Then I called Steve, we talked for 45 minutes on the phone. I met with him a couple days later, he again spent a bunch of time with me, mind you it was time for him to go home, he stayed late just for me. He took his time, showed me the software, offered me help and suggestions on how to pass the exam.

 

I finally had time to start his program on memorial weekend and as fate would have it, I had a conflict with my computer. I was devastated because I had set aside that long weekend to study. I left a frantic message on his machine and was ready to hunt him down and find his house. He called me on a holiday weekend! He walked me through the Vista issue and I was hopeful again. (I did do an experiment and used a different color highlighter for his material, and I can tell you I got most of the answers from him.)

 

Then as my luck would have it I got a severe neck injury the week before the test. If you were in Bradenton for the June exam, I was the big guy with heat patches and a Neck brace. I had enough oxycotin and muscle relaxers in me to lay down a horse. Seriously, I could not even sign my name, I had to erase it twice. I had no business being there.

 

A few days before the test, I received this nice e-mail from Becky, with testing tips. I will tell you what got me through that test, it was 2 little quotes on her e-mail.. "keep it simple, it is simple" and "you will do just fine". I was not proud of my 87.5% average, but considering the conditions and it was my 1st try, I can live with that. Thanks guys, YOU made the difference!"

 

Clearwater Beach, Florida

mrowlan1@hotmail.com

"Thank you so much for a GREAT study course! I just got home last night and I still cannot believe I passed all 3 sections on the first try! My average scores were an 87%. It was the hardest test of my life but I could not have passed it without this course! Worth EVERY CENT!

 

In hindsight, I wish I had studied the Table of Contents of each book better (especially the thick Builders Code) because with only 4 min per question, it is stressful to look in each book for the best section/answer.

 

I also recommend bookends. My books fell off the table twice. Not a lot of space on the tables!! :) No books allowed on the floor.

 

THANK YOU STEVE and MEREDITH again!!

I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to PASS !!!

You guys ROCK!!"

"Spoke with you on the phone after my exam, and wanted to let you know how well it went. Attached please find my scores for the General Contractor Exam-I passed with amazing scores of 90, 96.7, and 98.3! I ordered my software and books in September, highlighted them through December, and then went through the “Study Question” software January-February 20, the day of the test. The highlighting guide and tabs were complete and extremely helpful; I also placed the extra tabs on unmarked pages whenever the “Study Guide” software brought up a question I hadn’t marked in my books. The test itself was very grueling to say the least, a definite test of determination and will on both days, especially the second day. But utilizing your system enabled me to track down the answers verbatim for 95% of the test. Most importantly, THE QUESTIONS IN THE SOFTWARE ARE EXACTLY LIKE THE QUESTIONS ON THE EXAM, so I was definitely ready—as you can see by my scores!! Thank you again; I know I would be taking at least one section over again if not for this system; many of my friends from Contractors Exam School, Goldcoast, and CamTech will be taking the Contract Administration portion again to try and pass in April. I couldn’t imagine waiting that long for my license. Anyone who doesn’t believe this software is guaranteed to work for them can call me anytime they want at xxx-xxx-xxxx or email me. That’s how amazing the program is. Again, thank you very much!! Next one is the Roofing License!"

I followed the materials, studied everyday, took a week off, then looked over the materials the night before. I passed the exam the first time with 93.75%, 92%, and 86%. Thanks Again, your program works."

SATScott@cfl.rr.com

"Great course! I studied for 4 weekends before the exam and am sure I would not have passed without this course. Passed with 95, 90, 90 score. I could have done better but since I was so confident, due to the course, that I was at or above a 90 after 2 hours in each session I left rather than spending the time to find the really hard to find answers. Highly recommended."

"After buying my books over a year ago, I finally registered to take my GC test. In the beginning I was overwhelmed and was worried, but as the studying went on I got more and more comfortable with the practice tests. I took a few days before the test off and relaxed. I went in to the test very relaxed and ready to take my time and not rush. I was surprised how fast I had the test done and how much time I had left to check all my answers. The second day went the same way (other than the food poisoning I had from dinner the night before). I waited for about 10 minutes for my results after the test the second day and I was very pleased with my results. My first time taking the test and I scored 90 and above on all tests. Thanks again for your DVDs and tabs! Couldn't have gotten hear without it!"

Dunedin, Florida

carl@pocketneighborhoods.com

"I just passed, passed on my first try with scores of 96, 92, and 90 (Aug. 08). While your CD based program prepares you well, what no one can really explain is how grueling the test is... nearly ten hours each day for two straight day! By the afternoon of the second day, my reserves were nearly exhausted and I was on automatic pilot. Luckily, your bookmarks and highlighting techniques made it simple to find the answers I was looking for. The guy sitting next to me got so frustrated that he left halfway through the last test!

 

I didn't realize how fortunate I was to discover your classes until they began handing out the scores 30 minutes after the last test. there were a number of people who weren't as lucky as me, and several of them had already failed at least once before! Thanks again for creating such a great program. It works and I highly recommend it, Good Luck."

I did all the reading and highlighting. The test quiz's helped the most. I would be glad to let anyone know to use your system. You do need to put in the time and effort though. Thanks a million."

I want to let everyone know that I used the CD Presentations exclusively at home and did not step one foot in any classroom.
But don't be fooled, there is a lot to study. Your program was very involved but, dead on.
All the information needed to pass the test is within your program.
Now my test results

Thanks again for providing such a GREAT program.

I've taken county exams using study material that wasn't even close to what was on the exam.

I studied for about 2 months, 2 days a week. My last three or four weeks before the exam all I did was take practice tests. On in the morning and one in the afternoon to try and simulate the actual test. I'd recommend your program to anyone who wants to pass the exam!! Thank you very much."

"I wanted to write and thank you personally for helping me in my contractors exam I took in December in Miami. I was recommended to you by a friend who was also successful in his first attempt using you material.

 

I studied for three weeks prior to my exam. I studied your course with books and also your online question updates from past exams. It was more than sufficient. I passed all three areas averaging 90% all across the board AND leaving each exam period over an hour before the time limit.

 

Beside the program I also appreciated that I was able to call and talk to you directly about the test, licensing process, etc.

After the first day of exams I was only worried about the traffic to and from the testing site, again, I was more then prepared!

 

I almost felt sorry for those test-takers, clearly in a state of uncertainty, who were hurriedly comparing their answers during the lunch breaks.

Thanks again!"

"I had paid for two previous general contractor exam courses before finding Contractor Classes, and both times failed to complete them. Their format was to read and read. Go to their location twice per week at night to follow an instructor while he just read to us for hours, flipping pages, fighting to stay awake. Most of that time was wasted and the pace did not provide time to reflect and absorb the information. Also a waste was the belief by the instructor to have us memorize formulas which he thought were necessary to pass the exam.

 

The Contractor Classes program made the learning process simple and self paced. You can stop at any point and go back over any material until you are ready to proceed. All the information you will be tested on is in the books. Therefore, there is no need to memorize formulas. All you need is a good knowledge about the content of each of your manuals and the ability to find it. Steve will direct you to all the important items that the state will ask you about. Do not skip his guidance as to highlighting these passages. I have now passed all four tests after completing the program. I strongly recommend reading the AIA documents completely. Because failure is guaranteed if you do not know where find the information in them. I used my own color code system while highlighting the books. I had to pause the presentations in order to create this color code but for me, it made finding information much faster and thus saved precious time for other questions. Be patient in your preparation, and it will make you very happy in the end."

"I had decided approx. 3 weeks before the exam to go for it, leaving approx. 2 weeks for studies amongst additional things like.... Life. I must say, I had reserves about taking a home study course as I hold both my Real Estate License & Life, Health & Annuities License. I had taken a home study course with the Life... License & very quickly realized I made a mistake. Not with this course, I was completely satisfied with this coarse & even in a short time, there was more than enough info with all the CD's to be able to pass the exam way beyond just a passing grade. Many thanks to Steve & staff for a great job... Now Lets Build Florida!!!! THANKS & GOD BLESS"

The tools really prepared me to know WHERE to find the answers within the thousands of pages of reference material in front of me."

"I wanted to write you to let you know that I used you program to prepare for taking my Florida General Contractors Exam. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I passed all four sections and managed to complete each exam with plenty of time to spare. This program was fantastic in preparing me for a very tough test. I spoke with quite a few people who were also taking the General Contractors Exam, most of whom had attended the local training classes offered at twice the cost of your program, and most of their responses were that they had covered only 10 to 15 percent of what was actually on the exams. I can honestly say that at least 70 to 80 percent of what was on the exam was right out of your program. Thank you for providing such a wonderful product and helping me succeed in passing the toughest exam in the country. I will recommend your product to anyone who is planning on obtaining their Florida contractors license."

"The CD course is perfect for people who have schedules that will not allow them to sit in a more formal course. The test was difficult, and I would not have passed if not for the highlighting program. It organized the immense amount of material into manageable subsections. The study questions were incredibly helpful as well. mirroring exact questions on the exam. I was much much more confident waiting for my score than many of my exam-mates that took the traditional sit-down courses."

"I wanted to let you know your computer based study guide was perfect.

I purchased your study package a month ago and studies two hours per night until the exam day. I took the test Feb 17 and 18 and my scores were 83 on business finance, 76 on contract admin, and 84 on project management. Without the software I don not think it would be possible for me to pass this exam.

 

I was surprised to find so many questions on the test that were right out of your study material.

I would recommend this program to anyone that is planning on taking the test."

"Taking this exam as an out of state student would have been extremely difficult without Contractor Classes. It allowed me to study from my home office in NJ as well as when I was travelling. It is a difficult and tedious exam, however the material given to me allowed me to pass the first time. Steve and his staff were available before and after the exam and whatever the question - they know exactly where to find it. Spend the time and money - you will pass the fist time. Good Luck!"

"I ordered your full package three weeks before the exam and spent only two weeks studying part time. Most of the questions on the test were right out of your highlighting guide, Word for Word. The questions that weren't highlighted were quite easy to find. I got a 95, 93.33, and 91.67 my first time! A bunch of the other people taking the test were complaining about what a waist of time the classroom test preps were. The test was easy for me and I never felt like I wasted any time with your program. Thank you for your help."

"I can't say enough as to how well prepared I was because of the material I purchased from your company. I took a class for an entire semester at a local community college in my area however, didn't feel I was prepared to take the exam. For this reason I researched other alternatives, came across your website and what you had to offer and truly felt that your CD package was the best option. As the saying goes, "follow your instincts" and I'm so glad I did. I passed all three parts of the exam. Not only where you there for me prior to the exam but you were there after the exam when I had questions regarding my acquiring my license. I can't thank you enough."

"Hi Becky,

Let me begin by thanking you and everyone (mom and dad) for the material and for all of the help all of you provided after receiving my study material.  The cd package is right on target. Over all, very, very helpful. I passed both the Project Mgmt and Contract Administration (85 & 81.67) which I was very happy with. I was so pleased with my results I advertised to those who failed your product.  Even before the exam while making small talk I raved as to how good your CD package is and gave out your web-site.  I hope you don't mind, but I was so happy with the results and felt sorry for the ones who were there a 3rd and 4th time.  If there is anything I can do in terms of giving your product a reference, please don't hesitate to ask.

Now, The Business and Finance is a story in itself.  The testing center unjustifiably denied me access to take my test on Tuesday b/c my license expired on Friday the 11th.  I unsuccessfully tried to get them to use reason however, nothing.  They had me running around for 3 hours trying to renew my license.  I was so angry I went back home read the FDBPR and sure enough, all they require is a photo ID, which I had.  Nothing states whether its valid or not, but good advice for future clients.   I called and explained to them what happened (spoke to Vicki, a lovely person) and she was just as disgusted as I was so she gave me the principle contact at the testing center.  The woman at the testing center Pearson Vue (Cindy Peters) i think was more annoyed then I was  She assured me this won't happen again and that she'll make certain I can re-schedule without charge.  I'm content with the resolve (not happy) but now have to wait until the 30th to take the Business and Finance. Thanks again for all your great material.

"I cannot say enough about this fabulous program. If you truly want to pass the Florida General Contractors Exam the first time, this is the program you want to go with. Steve and his staff are fabulous; extremely patient and helpful. This program is easily followed and understood. Do not be fooled into thinking you have to go to class to pass this exam, many of the people that took the exam with me who did attend classes did not pass. If you want to pass, this is the program that will get you there!"

"Hello... I just wanted to tell you how well-prepared I felt going into the December General contractor's exam earlier this week due to the home study software from Contractor Classes. This was my first time taking the exam and I passed all three sections with scores in the 90's. The course was great with the highlighting and the tabbing. I knew where to look for over 75% of the question on the first pass... most of the remainder just took some extra searching. The course does a really good job getting you familiar with the books, which of course is the point. Just wanted to let you know how happy I was with the preparation... money well spent. I will be sure to recommend Contractor Classes to my colleagues who plan to take the exam."

"Hi Becky, I hope all is well. I was going to click the link and follow the directions, but I didn't take all of the recommended course from you guys. I can and will write a glowing recommendation for the practice exam software. Although they were a little pricey for me. I'm so glad I purchased them. They were very detailed, and the content was directly relevant to what was on the real exam. I'm not too proud to say that I only took each once (properly). I didn't have the time to study more than the Tuesday before the test. So I took each practice exam twice actually. Once to go straight through it (20-30 mins each) and once with the books (2.5 hrs each). Absolutely no other studying. Just your CD's the day before the exam. I didn't even get the books out and look through them before Tuesday.

 

Bottom line..... Great information on your CD's!!!

I passed with a 76% on contract admin and 81% on project management. I know these aren't great numbers and you probably don't want to mention these on your website: but I passed. With no classes. Just my prior experience and the practice exam software I bought from you. They were perfect.

 

I still have to take the Business & Finance exam, but I'm much more confident now. Thanks for the great products."

I didn't study until the last week and a half (probably not the best way to do it) but the information was fresh in my head. I really appreciated how the program was put together. Hearing, Seeing and Doing helped to put it all together and keep it there and you can't beat that you are in the comfort of your own home. I have four kids so I put on some headphones and just went to school after work.... Awesome!
I easily passed on my first try. One down and one more to go! Thanks again."

I will be sending you another e-mail with all of my scores. Your program is the only way that I would have been able to make it through. It was probably the hardest and most grueling 2 days of test taking I have ever been through.

But I followed your program step by step and I passed two sections with over 80 and a low score of 76.

Thank you again and I will recommend your program to as many people trying to get licensed in the construction industry as I can. If you ever need anything that I may be able to help with, please let me know."

"Steve, passed the test the first time with a 96% on Business and Finance, 95% on Contract Administration and 90% on Project Management. Pretty certain I would not have scored anywhere near that without your course. There just isn't enough time for the CA and PM parts without knowing those books backward and forward. The highlighting part of your program was great. It gave me a look at each book as you narrated; a great overview of exactly what's covered on the exam. The study questions really helped though. Many questions on the exam were so very close to the questions in your course. So I knew where to look for the answers. In addition to your course, I took each book and just flipped through every page at lunch for several weeks to get a feel for the material in each chapter. This helped me to figure our where to look for any questions that I had not seen. I knew right where to look for almost everything. So, thanks again for your course and the help you have given since passing."

I scored a 94 on business and finance, 93 on Contract Administration and 92 on project Management. CDs were extremely helpful. For other tests, I have attended several review courses that were an in-class review with monotone instructor that put you to sleep. The CDs are so much better. They allowed me to do the review on my time at my pace.   Great Program.   Well worth the cash investment."

The course and materials are of the highest quality. Everything is very well organized and extremely well presented. I found the ability to prepare at home (with full telephone support when needed) to be the most effective manner to prepare for this test. The practice sessions, test and latest examination questions prepared me well beyond what I could have done had I just purchased the books and studied by myself. If you are truly serious about preparing and passing your GC examination, this course will be the single most important thing you will do in achieving that goal - worth every Dollar.

"Dear Becky and Everyone Else at ContractorClasses.com,


My husband, had a North Carolina contractor's license 20 years ago before we moved to Florida in 1989.  It had taken him two tries to get that license, but he had passed the test up there after taking a short one-semester class at a local community college.  He's been a carpenter all his life, but had started getting into a little bit of contracting homes before we moved.  Then lots of life happened (including adding 4 more kids to our family which already included 3 kids when we moved here) and he never seemed to have the time to study for the Florida test, which he had heard was MUCH harder than NC's test and he never was a very confident test taker.  He kept hearing that the only way to really prepare for it was to get a 2-year community college degree - not even close to an option for him while he was busy supporting a growing family. 

He had a few really good years lately doing trim carpentry, then the bottom dropped out of the housing market last year and to top things off, at the end of March he fell off a roof (doing his first pressure cleaning job to make up for lost construction income) and landed on a concrete driveway, breaking his leg in 4 places.  After the doctor told him it would be at least 3 months before he was walking again, he decided this was the time to work on his Florida contractor's license.  But he needed a program of study that he could do in short sessions over a period of time, one that didn't require him to go to "cram" classes somewhere - after all, he was confined to a wheelchair and couldn't even drive for several weeks. 

That's where you all came in. With your computer-based program, he was able to sit in a recliner with his foot elevated and highlight the books and study the practice exams and study questions on the computer as the pain allowed him (he had to keep getting up and rolling around in the wheelchair to control the discomfort and keep from falling asleep!).  I was just glad to see him using his time for something other than feeling sorry for himself, and decided that this alone was well worth the price of your course.

He decided to try taking the June 17-18 test in Orlando instead of waiting until August, even though he knew he would not be allowed to put any weight on his foot by then.  So we packed up his wheelchair and his books and even our desktop computer for some last-minute study.  He hadn't had time to study the flashcards or some of the exam and study questions disks by the time the test date came, so we were thinking the June test would most likely be just an expensive practice session and thought he would be back again in August after some additional study time.

What a wonderful surprise when he opened his envelope and saw these grades - Business and Finance - 71.67%,  Contract Administration - 73.33%,  and Project Management - 86.67%!  He passed the very first time!!!  What a happy, happy moment for both of us.  It was the perfect ending to our 31st anniversary!  (We were married on June 18, 1977.)

Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts,

I got it on June 28, 2008 and after 4 to 5 hours daily I passed the exam on August 12-13, 2008 with 90, 95, and 98... The most important is to be very familiarized with all the books and review all the study questions and flashcards,,, Thank a lot!"

"Piece of cake! Passed all sections with nothing less than a 96. Finished each section with more than an hour to spare.

Due to a project closeout, bid dates and a family health emergency I wasn't able to get as much review as I would have liked. I even considered pushing my test back for the next go round. But the practice exams gave me the confidence to stay in it. They also showed my areas of weakness. So I was able to focus my efforts and only needed to have my lap top and one or two books to make effective use of my time. Had I not had the flexibility that this system allows I would likely have quit the class and pushed the test. I'm somewhat torn in giving this feedback, but at the end of the day this program helped me out. So go to the classrooms, sit in the cram session, staple your post its, I don't want the competition!"

"Thank you so much for such a great tool. I only had six weeks to prepare for the test and studied every day after work for two hours. Many people at the test had gone to the "cram courses" and the classroom type schools. Not only were they disappointed with the information they had been taught, but could not retain, and many failed.

 

I passed with a 92, 95, and 89. I love the challenge of taking tests, but this one was tiring. It was very long and had the potential to be overwhelming. Knowing where to find the answer was the key, or you get bogged down with frustration. Also having the course on my laptop was a big help as I was able to take it with me and review the night before instead of sitting around idle and stressing. Thank you again, I know I could not have passed without your course!"

With the CD's loaded onto my laptop, I could study at my own pace and when I had time available each day. I received the books and CD's approximately 4 weeks before the test and I spent about a total of 40 hours at my pace going through highlighting and practicing the study questions. Also, Kelly and Steve were always there when I called with a questions. Much Appreciated!"

"Kelly,

How can I thank you and Steve enough? I passed all the exams and scored in the 80's on each. My average score for all of the testing was 85.25%

  • I did not have the full week to take off and sit in a week-long course.

  • I wanted to take is slow and steady so I could actually remember and use some of the information I was learning.

  • For better retention, and with my workload during the day, I needed a way to study the course at my discretion.

  • The format on the disks and using my own computer, at my pace, at my convenience, was critical to my success.

  • The highlighting guides were extremely valuable. It was just like being in an excellent classroom course but doing it in the comfort of my own environment.

  • The material was clearly identified and the examples that Steve went through for some of the questions was instrumental in helping me not only pass the test, but understand many things that will actually benefit my career.

  • The study guide questions format was sensational. The fact that it allowed a review of the results and a chance to recognize areas of weakness was extraordinarily helpful.

  • The practice tests were the "coup de gras" I was able to actually EXPERIENCE the type of questions and in the time frames allowed during the test. I can not think of a better way to end the preparation process.

  • You both were always there to answer my questions on the phone.

  • You were extremely prompt in getting my product orders to me. EXTREMELY!

  • Steve has a friendly voice and I felt like we became friends even though it was all on disk.

  • The ability to select which page of which book you wanted to review ... at any time... was also a great feature.

What else can I say? I am 52 years old and have not been to a school testing situation for ages. Everyone I spoke to told me how grueling and hard the test was and how many people fail... and continue to fail. needless to say, stress was well established inside of me. Bottom-Line: Your program WORKS! (As if you didn't know it!!)  I am proof! If the student puts in the time, and does what you suggest... success is imminent! Thank you both so very much for making this experience a positive adventure."

I work 60hrs a week in the field, and only devoted 3hrs a day for three weeks to study. But in the end, I passed. The test was easier than I thought it would be. The study guide was on target, the tabs you get were the key. many people had hundreds of little yellow tabs, I thought to myself, I didn't have enough. but in the end .they were the right amount .I could get around my books very well and I passed the very first time. You will see people there, that have been there 3,4and even 5 times and when you get the magic envelopes they still did not pass. I would recommend this course to any body that is serious about passing. I spent $ 1600.00 on this class. Sounds like a lot huh. Crash courses cost thousands , You learn a lot but you cant find your way around your books because you never used them. They talk you to death!  The books alone, will not help much, the tabs, and the disk will make it so easy, study at home at your own pace, then when you are ready, just sign up and do it in one  try.

 

P.S. I am getting ready to sign my first contract a 7 million dollar deal.

I am so very pleased with the preparation I received from your software program. I actually knew most of the answers before I looked them up. For the question I didn't know, I was certain of where to find the answer. And out of the three tests, I think only 2 or 3 answers were not already highlighted and been covered in your program! I was very pleased with my scores as well. I made a 95.8 on the Business and Finance (missed 5 out of 120), a 91.67 on the Contract Management (missed 5 out of 60), and a 100 on the Project Management.

I spent $3,800 the first time I took the Residential test and didn't score as high as I did this time using Contractor Classes. You need to study hard, but this class is exceptional! I would say 25% of what was on your practice tests were exactly as on the actual exam. After using your Flash Cards and re-taking the practice tests, I must admit, I knew where everything was and I scored a 90% and an 88% the first time! I truly recommend this class to everyone.

Being from Pennsylvania, classroom preparation wasn't an option. The CD-Software was all that I needed. Between the tabbing and highlighting guides, navigating the books was easy. The practice questions improved my knowledge and allowed me to achieve an overall 94 on the October exam.

"Hello Becky. Well today was the day. I realized first thing in the morning that I should have studied a lot more. However, I passed on the first try. Several people failed that went to other schools. Some people thought I was crazy for choosing an online course, but in the the end I passed and they are trying again in April. Thanks a million. The course was excellent and worth every penny."

"I passed 91%, 94% and 85%

Thanks for all your help! You are right, it is very exhausting! I won't be able to sit for a week! Oh my Arse!

If I were to recommend anything it would be to add more examples of math questions. From studying your program, I didn't have any trouble at all with them. But, that seemed to be the most talked about issue with other candidates at the test.

Awesome class! Thanks again."

"I only took the Business and Finance classes as part of the Plumbing Exam and was very happy with the home study CD's.
This was very well put together and was EXACTLY what I needed.
After seeing the total JUNK other schools sold my friends, I knew I purchased my stuff from the right people.
I will always recommend you guys. Thanks again."

"The folks at ContractorClasses.Com were very helpful via phone whenever I had questions. The course was very easy to follow and the material was very up to date.

"Thanks this program worked great. Both my wife (an engineer) and my self (an engineer) both bought the books (she won't share) and did your program. I have taken more tests in different states than most anyone that I know. Your computer program works very well. We do work for several major clients that demand that we travel across the US and Europe. We are not worried about high passing scores, we are worried about making money. Your course helped us easily pass the test first try. Thanks. And we did it from the comfort of our own office. (oh, by the way we passed in the 90s on all test, however 90's don't make any more money than 70's). Call me with the profit and loss statement. Thanks again."

Though I did not get a chance to do the flash cards or the practice exams I believe your program is very well thought out and did a great job preparing me for the examinations. Thank You."

"I passed the Builder's exam with a cumulative score of 92. At the exam I talked with several unhappy people who took a "cram course" over a weekend, and said they "wasted their money". This course is set up so you can work on studying and absorbing the huge amount of material- 15 books worth- over a 2-3 month time period. Sure, it can be done in less time, but it can't be done in just a few days. The point is- in order to pass, you need to know the content of the reference books- this course helps you get that done on your own time."

"What an amazing course! I passed all portions of the exam last week on my first try. My scores were 82, 71 & 85. This is by far, the best course, of the many available, that properly prepares you for 19 grueling hours of examination. Most of the other test takers were exhausted from the crash courses other schools offer right before the test. Not me. I took this course in the comfort of my home in my own time. The 10 CD course, books and tabs were everything I needed to be 100% ready to pass this test. My only regret was not finding this course before spending my money on other schools. Thank You!!!"

"It was my first time taking the exam and after hearing from others how difficult it was, I turned to Contractor Classes for their assistance and their home study guide. It was the best decision I made and worth every cent invested. I passed all three parts the first time around with very generous scores. Their material was very informative and concise in all the required areas. I highly recommend them. My thanks, to Contractor Classes and Staff. Could not have done it without you."

     Biz and Finance: 99%

The course was great and I was able to work at home and at my pace - since I was holding a full time job during the day. I now run my own company and have over $500,000 in work under contract. Thanks again..."

"I have been a builder for 25 years and worked a couple of hurricanes, this test is more painful, trust me.

The best advice of this course is to listen to the teacher, VERY KEY, listen to the personal and mental advice and spend a little more time reading past what you highlight. They are going to change more often and increase questions. They change one or two words "Out of quotation" of the materials you have a general trick. This course is fantastic, especially if you are in a situation like myself where "Time is of the essence". Thanks again, especially for the tips, the humor and not giving up, because this is the toughest test you will ever take."

"Steve, I wanted to write and thank you for the quality course that you provided for the contractors exam. Your methods and instructions were extremely helpful in the preparation for the test. I averaged a 95% for the test and even received a 100% on the Contract Administration portion of the test on the second day. I heard from several people on how they had attended a cram course the two to four days before the test and then had to sit through two long days with the test. I believe that this is a mistake. I again appreciate your help and would be willing to be a reference (if you need one).

Just answer two questions for me.

1. The number of minutes a piece of 1/2" type drywall adds to the fire rating of a wall.

2. The number of screws wherever it was on a 8/12 pitched cold formed steel building.

I looked for these forever. Thanks again."

"Hi Guys!

I can't thank you enough for the incredible prep material. This is my fourth state certificate exam. I am a state certified fire fighter, real estate broker, and now I'll add Certified Building Contractor to that list because of the no-nonsense, down to earth approach of your material. I passed the first try 92.5%, 88%, (70%, my fault, I panicked and forgot the principles taught in your course). I would gladly recommend your course to anyone considering contractor related licensing.

Thank You so much and God Bless!"

"I passed in April on my first try. It wasn't easy and without having the skills taught in the CD program it would have been impossible. Knowing where to find the information is the key. There were people around me on all sides that were there for their 3rd, 4th and 5th attempt at passing. Thank-you."

"The CD program was a great help with the daunting task of approaching the 14 books required for the GC exam. I scored a 95% on the Business and Finance and 80% on each of the other two. The Contract Admin and Project Management parts were hard but not impossible. The coverage that the books received during the training was right on the spot as I was finding more and more answers on the sections of the books covered.

 

I highly recommend this program. One thing, no program would do it for you, I spent three months studying an average of 4 hours a day (Mon-Fri). Then the last week, I averaged 8 hours a day taking practice  tests. Maybe I over did it. Maybe you can do it with less, but at the end, the only way that you can do it is if you put in the time.

 

If you follow the CD course diligently and put the effort, you'll pass the test. Taking practice tests will help you with your timing skills. Timing skill are critical on exam day. The four exams at 4 hours and 45 minutes each are meant to break but the most determined of people. Anxiety and fatigue are definitively the enemy. The time is more than sufficient to find the percentage of answers needed to pass, but you have to manage this time properly. The orientation disk gives great advice on how to do this. I followed it and IT WORKED!!!

 

Thanks to Contractor Classes. Every time I had a question, they were available. Good luck to all of you reading this message. You too can do it."

I followed the study tips and exam tips to the letter and passed my first time out in December. I'm not going to say that it wasn't difficult, because it was by far the hardest test I've taken.
