National Institute for AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE EXCELLENCE A U T O Maintenance and Light Repair S T U D Y G U I D E Page 2 ASE Auto Maintenance & Light Repair Study Guide Overview This guide is intended to help technicians study for the ASE Auto Maintenance & Light Repair Test (Test G1). It contains Test Specifications, a task list, and sample questions. After reviewing this guide, you should find it easier to select reference material to help you prepare for the test. Certification in Auto Maintenance & Light Repair is slightly different from other ASE certifications. If you pass the G1 exam, and have at least one year of hands-on working experience in auto maintenance and light repair (half may be met by appropriate vocational training), you will be certified in this area. The G1 test contains 55 scored questions, plus 10 unscored research questions, and you will have 1 1/2 hours (90 minutes) to complete it. The questions, written by service industry experts familiar with all aspects of maintenance and light repair, are entirely job-related. They test knowledge of the skills you need to do the job; theoretical knowledge is not covered. The Test Specifications and the Task List, reviewed together, provide you with a map of the topics that will be covered on the test. The sample questions will give you experience with the types of multiple-choice questions on ASE tests. After reviewing this guide, you should have a good idea skill areas need additional study. To register for your exam, go to www.ase.com. Try to be well-rested for the test so you will be alert and efficient. Plan to arrive early at the Test Center; late arrivals may be turned away. Be sure to bring your test center admission ticket and a current government-issued photo ID. Electronics are not allowed in the test area. Lockers will be provided for your personal items, including cell phones. Your appointment will begin with a short tutorial to familiarize you with our computer-based testing system. You can also preview it online at www.ase.com/cbt. The G1 test has a time limit of 1 1/2 hours. Your computer screen will continuously show the amount of time left. If a question is difficult, mark your best guess and flag the question. If time remains after you complete the test, review your flagged questions. Your score is based on correct answers only, so you should try to answer every question to the best of your ability.
