How to Prepare for a Firefighter Written Exam: Simulate the Firefighter Written Exam Experience.

In most cases, fire recruits will be put out of their comfort zones in a firefighter aptitude testing situation.

In this way, the firefighter testing process itself mimics the job of a Career Firefighter. Cities hire fire-candidates who can demonstrate that they are prepared and ready to do what is asked of them under difficult and/or stressful conditions.

Alleviate feelings of nervousness and test anxiety by preparing for your firefighter written exams in advance.

Try these study strategies in your next firefighter exam preparation session:

  1. Time your firefighter practice tests.

  2. Wear an analogue watch to track your time answering firefighter exam questions.

  3. Workout before writing a full firefighter practice test to simulate completing a firefighter physical test before a written firefighter exam.

  4. Study at the library to simulate test-taking in a public space with distractions that are outside the norm for you.

  5. Practice transferring the numbers from a firefighter test question on to paper and using them in a calculation.

  6. Practice transferring your answers on to an answer sheet to simulate using a scannable answer sheet.

  7. Practice answering questions online to simulate online firefighter tests.
