Synopsis
While there are other self help books devoted to helping aspiring firefighters,
they only provide questions and answers. These books are useless if you do not
understand how to work out the problems. Smoke Your Firefighter Written Exam goes
beyond providing sample questions and answers. It teaches the reader the basic
rules and principles behind the questions; in other words, how to solve each complex
problem. Each section begins with an overview of how to solve the problems. The
reasoning behind the correct answer is presented in clear, easy to understand
language.
The reader will become proficient in:
*Mathematics (word problems, geometry, addition, subtraction, division, multiplication)
*Mechanical aptitude (hydraulics, gears, levers, pulleys, inclined planes, screws)
*Language (reading, spelling, grammar, vocabulary)
*Perceptual ability
*Spatial relations
*Matching parts and figures
*Map Reading
