This revised and updated manual presents practice exams similar to those given to firefighter candidates in cities and communities across America.

The book opens with a description of the firefighter’s role, the important terminology he or she must understand, and the physical, medical, and written tests that every candidate must be able to pass for qualification. General advice and information for prospective firefighters includes physical fitness standards, and learning to recognize and correct weaknesses in visualization, spatial orientation, and more.

  • A preliminary diagnostic exam
  • Information on revised exams (CPAT)
  • Advice on what a successful firefighter candidate should do to prepare before taking the exam
  • Six full-length practice exams
