WPI's Need-to-Know Criteria state no time limit or passing score, so our 120 minutes (1.2 minutes a question) is a pace, not a rule. Ask your certifying authority for your exam's rules. A practice score is a guide, not a prediction of your result.

The calculation questions
10 of the 100 questions are calculations.

Keep a copy open while you practise. For more of them, try the operator math drill.
Which exam applies to you
Each certifying authority chooses which exams it gives, and not every program uses WPI's standardized exams. This practice exam follows WPI's Need-to-Know Criteria; ask your certifying authority which exam, classes and rules apply to you. Our water treatment operator exam guide sets out what WPI's Class I to IV exams cover and the exam-day rules WPI publishes.
