Tab your books!
I didn't use the tab set they sell you. I made my own with definitive names. I also took different color highlighters and color coded the important chapters by striping the edge of the pages. When I took my first round of inspector tests my 1990 code book was tabbed and marked like a rainbow but I could quickly get to any table or article.
These tests go real fast if you can open the book to the article they are quoting in the correct answer. Watch out for words like "never" and "always". Be sure you see all the "no"s and "not"s. That is usually where the tricks are in a trick question.
If you can find your way around the books time will not be an issue. If you can't answer a question definately, take your best guess, mark it and move on. Go back and work on them when you are done. Be very careful if you simply skip one. You can get off one line on the answer sheet and screw your whole test.
