    Just about to resit my CSCS (construction site health and safety) card i was just wondering if anyone knew the best place like a website or something to revise with.

    I passed the test when i was 15 years back but i have known in the past to get a bit to confident, i did have a book a while back that more or less gave me all the answers but i know that the test has changed alot since in regards to fire fire extinguishers etc. and from what i remember the test was 90% common knowledge.

    Any help would be brilliant lads as i don't wanna go in and * it up :50:

    You shouldnt have any problems, they give you all the info you need in each seperate model and you answer the questionairre after each one. It was multiple choice the last time I done it and the tutor helps you out if you dont understand any of the questions. All the best:shamrock:

    Funnily enough tiling was my first ever job and i really enjoyed it but my boss ended up moving to Dubai to work but i suppose that just shows what you can make of yourself, since then i went through * with my last job i was working 6:30 to 7:00 for £90 a week didn't get sent to college or anything was meant to be learning plastering all i did was scaffholding, labouring and basicly being a slave, so it's good to know he has landed a decent job :50:

    sit at a computer with a programme all set up and its multiple choice quistions. theres usually always one on stuff like fire extinguishers and working at heights.

    Alot is just common sense to be honest

    Wow this an old one :icon_mrgreen:

    Trust me anyone looking in.. If someone were to fail that test they shouldn't be allowed near the public never mind a building site.

    I think my 10year old brother could pass it
    But it's normal to worry :50:
