I took the California general contractors B exam in August of 2002 and failed the first time I took it using this book. The book does not even cover several important sections, such as Electrical, plumbing and handicap codes. For the other sections, less than 50% of the material they covered in the book was on the test.

If you are taking the exam in CA, do not use this book.

I concur with the reviewer who says it isn't a good preparatory book for taking the contractor license test in California. I took it in March, 2003, and the book was not only not useful, it wasted my time studying things that were not on the test. I do NOT recommend this book.

Maybe it helped others, but it didn't help me. Only one of the fifty questions from the practice exam was remotely similar to one of the one hundred questions on the real test.

Seemed helpful when I was reading it, but not like the actual exam at all.

Find something else; I am.

I wanted to write and say that I purchased the book at the buigining of 03' did the practice exams in prep (As well as study the recomended study materials) for the SC builder test and I passed with flying colors, I finished the 4hr part with 17 minutes remaining and the 2hr part with 30 minutes remaining. I believe it was a help in getting ready for this test.

This book is a must have for state licensing examinations. It covers the necessary examination areas for the 50 question examination in most states.

Great book, it was just what I was looking for to prepare me for the state license exam for contracting.

This is a great book for an indivitual to understand technical aspects of construction and utilize it for the exam.

I read this book in my spare time to prepare for the exam. Great tool

Very good, the guides are excelents and the way is the better looking for the target

Great Price, Fast Delivery and quality product! My husband will defiantly get his roofing license with this. I will shop again!!
