    Part B — Practical Preparation

    Prepare for Part B first. Use the AWS practical guide and Book of Specifications to plan physical tool and specimen practice.

    • •Distinguish specification lookups, exhibit interpretation, and physical measurements
    • •Use digital topic review as a supplement to physical specimen and tool preparation

    Part A — Metallurgy, Discontinuities & NDT

    The rest of Part A: metallurgy and heat effects, weld discontinuities, destructive and nondestructive testing, and inspection math.

    • •Master common discontinuities (porosity, undercut, incomplete fusion, cracks) and their causes
    • •Cover NDT methods (VT, PT, MT, RT, UT) and destructive tests — when each applies
    • •Drill inspection math and metallurgy/heat-treatment questions with instant AI explanations

    Part C — Selected Code and Edition

    Prepare with the Part C code and edition listed in your AWS confirmation letter.

    • •Confirm your selected code and edition before using code-specific questions
    • •Practice finding tables, figures, and clauses in your selected reference
    • •Verify each code-sensitive explanation against that edition; mixed practice is not a Part C simulation

  4. Week 4 Plan

    Part-Specific Review

    Review weak areas for each part and follow your confirmed AWS exam schedule. Mixed practice scores do not predict passing.

    • •Review fundamentals, practical preparation, and selected-code navigation separately
    • •Revisit missed questions and verify explanations against the applicable source
    • •Continue from saved progress and use practice results to choose your next topic
