Pressure vessel audit and certification
Thread Content
For the written part of the certification exam, is passing or failing determined by the score or by the proportion of candidates taking the exam at that time?
First of all, whether it works or not depends on your luck. Secondly, you need to have solid fundamental skills. Furthermore, you need to have experience in design. In this way, you will generally be able to pass. This is just my opinion, for your reference only.
It should be based on the average score of everyone; no one should be prevented from passing the exam just because of a low score
I took the exam once before; surprisingly, I passed the defense but failed the written test. Open the book – those colleagues who have no experience in container design passed the written test; it’s unclear why they failed. Since I didn’t have the professional title certificate, and with the sharp drop in oil prices the company was short on funds, I didn’t take the retake exam; otherwise, what would I do if the company asked me to sign something? The places for training are all good locations for recuperation; the key point is that it’s covered by public funds. ~
The passing score is set in advance and is not determined by the results of the exam taken on the spot; in other words, there is no set pass rate. What really matters is one’s own performance.
There will be no set percentage of people who must fail; only a passing score will be established.
I remember that in the past, the qualification for a second-level construction engineer was determined based on a percentage of the total number of people. This should be comparable, right?
Whether one passes or fails the written exam is determined by their score. The advantage of a written exam is that it’s possible to pass even without any practical experience; in other words, even if you’ve never designed pressure vessels before, as long as you put in the effort to thoroughly understand the standards, your chances of passing are quite high. In other words, the written test places more emphasis on mastering basic knowledge :)
