I have mine, but i took the test 16 years ago so I don't think I would be much help on the test layout now. To me the 150 general knowledge questions were the toughest. I took it to 1104 and found that part to be pretty easy also. Just take your time and read the questions and answers carefully. Good Luck.

i took mine 14 years ago . Be careful with the questions and acceptance criteria in the hands on code book. At the time some of the " acceptable " stuff was silly. But they want to know if you will read a code or wing it from knowledge. Also the test was big on terminolgy ex GTAW verses TIG , SMAW verses Stick rod. Take your time .
Good Luck

Why are you taking prep classes in FLA ?

One thing I've noticed from the practice questions is it more them trying to trick you than test of knowledge

Congrats Adam!
You heard about the 3 kids trying to reach the cookie jar on top of the frig.
1st boy-- My dad is a carpenter if he was here he could build a scaffold and we could get the cookies.
2nd boy --- My dad is a pipefitter if he was here he could lay a pipe aginst the frig and we could get our cookies.
3rd boy-- My dad is a welder if he was here he would whine till someone gave us the cookies.
