Default has anyone done painters registration boards exam

If so can you reccomend a website that covers estimation and specification for this exam.

Husband has passed first 2 parts of exam but failed third by 1% and has to re sit next week.

He found the scale drawings confusing to calculate from as he has never used them before in 20 years.

Any help would be greatly appreciated .

Cheers

Hubby did his apprenticship 20 years ago and never ever had to cost from scale drawings either but over here to register as a painter you have to know how to do this and all the accounting crap too.

When he first sat exam was given scale drawings of rooms and asked to calculate cost of painting them.

He will re sit exam next wed and wants to pass so he can get his registration and start own business.

You would think with apprenticship papers and all the loop holes of passing TRA as a painter that he had proven he was legit but not enough apparantly.

Keeping fingers crossed someone can help.

cheers
