Afternoon all,

as a result of letting my CSCS card lapse, (I retired, but then got bored), I have to resit the H & S test for managers and professionals.

I downloaded the app and have been beavering away and there have been 809 questions in total in the pool of questions when you start up the app

Until a couple of days ago when the total number of questions has decreased to 500-odd.  Does anyone know if the pool of questions has reduced or is something going on within the app ?

Like other posts, some of the quesitons are a bit confusing and IMO, some are just downright wrong, but that's another thread..

TIA

Not showing off here but I passed my CSCS Manager's test with flying colours. (100%) with not too much preperation.  I don't think there is anything to worry about if you are actively engaged in your line of work.

Well,  I contacted CITB Publications dept about this and there is an answer !!

The app was launched in its current version in June with the 809 questions, but since then they've had reviews and feedback and have withdrawn some questions because they were just plain wrong, taken some out cos they were confusing, example - they would have three versions of one question along the lines of what should you do, what should you not do and what are the risks of... etc.

So, to reduce confusion and remove errors, the pool of test questions has been reduced to the 532

Happy Days !!
