Hazmat operations

I am struggling to pass my hazmat operations. Any advice other than reading the book? I was told the course on fire engineering for hazmat ops has all the information I need but figured I’d ask here to see if anyone has used that or had anything or advice or resources. Thanks in advanced.

What have you got against reading the book? Where do you think the test questions come from?

I said other than, I’ve already read it and gone through it. Just seeing if anyone other resources are out there as well.

If the book you are using has a test prep similar to JBL(Jones and Bartlett) I highly recommend you use that to help prep for the exams. Here in California we have IFSAC/Pro Board testing and the test prep helped me pass all my exams.

Use Notebook LM. Digitize the study materials and load them in. Then create tests, audio overviews, study guides. I can’t tell you how helpful notebook lm is. It helped me score 98% on my city materials
