Contractor Exam Tip #1

Know the Exam Structure Before You Start Studying

Before you even open a book or enroll in a prep course, your first step in preparing for the Florida contractor license exam should be understanding its structure. Every Florida contractor exam, whether for General, Residential, Roofing, Electrical, Plumbing or other contractor licenses, the exam includes two main sections: Business & Finance and Trade Knowledge. Each section has its own unique format, time limit, and required reference materials. The Business & Finance portion focuses on management, accounting, and construction law, while the Trade Knowledge section is specific to your license category.

The contractor exam is administered by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR), and they provide a candidate information booklet that outlines everything you need to know — from the number of questions to the scoring criteria. Also, at the beginning of every course Jack offers, you’ll find a free introductory video which explains everything. In this video, the student is informed of the number of questions on the exam, the pace the student needs to maintain to finish the exam on time, which subjects and manuals are emphasized on the exam, and other insights Jack has been able to learn based on feedback from students who have been successful on the exams.

By understanding the test format upfront, you can build a targeted study plan which I will help you with. You’ll know exactly which books to buy, how to split your study time, and what types of questions to expect. I’ll help you avoid the common mistake of diving into studying without this foundation — because that’s a fast track to frustration and wasted effort.
