COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION
TRAINING CERTIFICATION TEST (DVD-64C) v.2a
This test consists of fifty multiple-choice questions. All questions are from the video:
Component Identification (DVD-64C).
Each question has only one most correct answer. Use the Answer Sheet and circle the
letter corresponding to your selection for each test item. If you wish to change an
answer, erase your choice completely.
You should read through the questions and answer those you are sure of first. After
your first pass through the test, then go back and answer the questions that you were
not sure of. If two answers appear to be correct, pick the answer that seems to be the
most correct response.
When you are finished, check to make sure you have answered all of the questions.
Turn in the test materials to the instructor.
The passing grade for this test is 70% (35 correct answers or better).
Good luck!
