Question regarding mechanical aptitude test at UBC
Post Body

I'm going to be doing a mechanical apititude test at local 2309 on march 29. I'm not a journeyman if it matters (not even registered as an apprentice yet) I wasn't given much info about what was on it so I came here to ask.

Two comments on this subreddit on other posts recommended this book and i've been going through it.

I'm wondering, will this test include spatial ability questions, or will it just be mechanical aptitude stuff like pulleys, levers, gears, electricity, etc?

Chapter 3-6 in this book seem to be about mechanical stuff with the rest being what I assume is meant by spatial ability. Will that spatial stuff be on the test? I've gone through the first 12 chapters already, i'm just wondering if I'm spending my time wisely.

This comment from 6 years ago mentions trig, "rigging safety factors" and some other math. That stuff isn't in this book, would the test still contain that sort of stuff? If so, any tips on where I can find those sorts of questions to review?

Thanks in advance.
