This review is from: Operator Certification Study Guide, Fifth Edition (Spiral-bound)

This book had all the math necessary for Distribution grade 2
The written question portion for grade 2 only had about 3 questions that
were on the test.
if you study D 1-5 of Q&A there are about 7 questions that are close to the test
All in all D2 wise your more so getting help with the math.
