How our library can help

Our study library covers the skill areas UA aptitude tests commonly assess — Reading Comprehension, Figure Visualization, Mechanical Abilities, and Math — with worked examples and practice drills built for pencil-and-paper, no-calculator conditions. We don't claim our library perfectly matches UA Local 38's specific format. What we can say: if your test covers any of the core skill areas, we've got material on it.
