  1. It is a very good test, very good linked with reality on construction sites, with common dangers and health hazards

  2. I passed my CSCS on the 7th of July, and I still find sitting mock tests a good help. There's always something you THINK you know, but well worth sitting these tests repeatedly before the exam itself!

  3. Great start to understanding some of the site health and safety issues before taking the CSCS test with a few trick wording in some of the questions.

  4. These mock exam questions are perfect for people who are wanting to take their exam for their CSCS Card. I was surprised with the score result that I got for my mock test but I did answer a few questions incorrectly wrongly though.
