Fast practice, instant feedback. Timer auto-submits when time’s up.
Avg score: 37% Most missed: “What NDE process is indicated in the following description?”

Subject matter covered in actual AWS and other welding examinations include: Shielded Metal Arc Welding, Flux Cored Arc Welding, Self Shielded and Submerged Arc Welding, the arc welding processes protected by flux, along with the gas shielded processes, such as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding, Gas Metal Arc Welding and Flux Cored Arc Welding-Gas Shielded. Brazing and soldering are also covered, along with common mechanical and thermal cutting processes that will aid in material preparation and enhance welding fit-up issues.
