Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about GetLicenseReady.
What states are covered?
GetLicenseReady provides NEC 2023 practice material and state information resources. Licensing requirements, adopted code editions, and exam content vary by jurisdiction, so confirm current requirements with the responsible authority or exam provider.
Is this based on NEC 2023?
Yes. Our questions are based on NEC 2023. Confirm the current code edition and permitted references in the official candidate information for your examination.
How many questions are available?
We offer 1,641 NEC 2023 practice questions organized into product study categories. Review the citation shown with each question and the current official content outline for your examination when choosing topics to study.
Can I practice specific categories?
Absolutely! You can drill down into specific topics and categories so you can focus on areas where you need the most practice. Whether you want to master load calculations or review grounding requirements, you can customize your study sessions to match your needs.
How does progress tracking work?
Our progress tracking system monitors questions answered (total and by category), accuracy rate (overall and by topic), weak areas (topics where you need more practice), and study streaks (to keep you motivated). You can see at a glance which topics you've mastered and which need more attention, so you can study smarter, not just harder.
Do I need the code book?
Our questions use NEC 2023 references. Whether a code book is permitted, required, or restricted depends on the current rules for the specific examination.
Do you offer exam tips or just questions?
Both! While our core offering is high-quality practice questions with detailed explanations, many of our question explanations include test-taking strategies and code navigation tips. You'll learn not just the 'what,' but the 'how' and 'why' behind each answer.
What's your refund policy?
We offer a 7-day money-back guarantee only on your first individual purchase, either a subscription or the Exam Prep Pass. To request a refund, email support@getlicenseready.com from the email associated with your account within 7 days of purchase. If the purchase was a subscription, cancel it in Settings to prevent future renewal charges. The Exam Prep Pass is a one-time purchase and does not require cancellation. After 7 days, subscription renewal charges are non-refundable, but you can still cancel a subscription anytime to avoid future charges.
How long do I have access?
Access duration depends on your subscription. Monthly subscription gives you access for as long as your subscription is active. Annual subscription provides full access for 12 months. As long as your subscription is active, you have unlimited access to all 1,641 questions, progress tracking, and any new questions we add.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. You can cancel your subscription at any time directly from your account settings. Go to Settings → Cancel Subscription. If this is your first individual purchase and you cancel within 7 days, you can request a full refund by emailing support@getlicenseready.com. After 7 days, you'll retain access until the end of your current billing period, you won't be charged again, and your progress data is saved if you decide to return later. There are no cancellation fees or penalties.
Will this prepare me for my specific state exam?
GetLicenseReady provides NEC 2023 practice material. Review official state or local requirements, including any non-NEC materials, before relying on it for a particular exam.
What's the difference between Journeyman and Master prep?
License classifications and exam scope differ by jurisdiction. Review the official materials for the credential you intend to pursue, then use practice filters to focus your study.
How should I use GetLicenseReady to prepare?
Use practice results to choose topics for further review, read the explanations, and consult the NEC references shown with each question. Practice performance is not an official passing standard or prediction of an exam result.
Which exam vendor/testing company will I use?
Testing providers, interfaces, and permitted materials vary by examination. Confirm the current candidate bulletin or licensing authority instructions for your examination, then use GetLicenseReady for NEC practice and study review.
Is my exam open-book or closed-book?
Open-book status, permitted references, and testing rules vary. Follow the current candidate bulletin or licensing authority instructions for your examination.
How do I navigate the NEC code book during the exam?
Use the Index to look up keywords related to a question, and use the Table of Contents to orient yourself to the NEC structure. Practice questions include cited NEC references so you can practice locating the cited provision. Follow the current official rules for your examination about whether and how the code book may be used.
What's the difference between Journeyman and Master Electrician exams?
Credential names, eligibility, and examination scope vary by jurisdiction. Review the current official materials for the credential you intend to pursue, then use practice filters to organize your NEC study. Practice performance is not an official passing standard or a prediction of an examination outcome.
Do you offer timed practice exams?
Yes. Study Mode provides untimed practice with feedback. Exam Mode is a product practice simulation with 80 random questions and a four-hour timer. It is not a representation of any particular licensing examination.
Can I use this on my phone/tablet?
Absolutely! GetLicenseReady is fully responsive and works seamlessly on any device – phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop. Study during your lunch break, on your commute, in the evening on the couch, or anywhere you have a few spare minutes. Your progress automatically syncs across all devices, so you can start a study session on your phone and pick up right where you left off on your computer later. Flexibility is key to consistent studying, and we've built GetLicenseReady to fit your life, not the other way around.
Who writes the questions?
Every question is written using the NEC 2023 (NFPA 70) as the primary source and cites the exact NEC article and table so you can verify it yourself in your code book. Questions are reviewed for technical accuracy and updated regularly to reflect the current code edition.
