    Common Exam Mistakes

    Pitfalls to avoid in your exams

    • •Misdiagnosing electrical issues due to incomplete scanning of all vehicle modules after impact.
    • •Over-tightening fasteners leading to thread damage or component failure.
    • •Neglecting to recalibrate sensors after mechanical repairs, causing warning lights on dashboard.
    • •Using incorrect trim removal techniques resulting in broken fasteners and cosmetic damage.
    • •Failing to account for pre-existing conditions not caused by the accident, leading to inaccurate repair estimates.
    • •Insufficient surface preparation, such as failing to remove all contaminants or not feather-edging properly, leading to paint adhesion failure and premature corrosion.
    • •Incorrect mixing ratios due to misunderstanding TDS or using the wrong measuring sticks, causing problems like slow curing, soft film, or colour mismatch.
    • •Ignoring ambient conditions—temperature, humidity, and airflow—which can cause blushing, solvent entrapment, or slowed flash-off times.

    Top Examiner Tips

    Expert advice for exam success

    • •Always begin with a comprehensive visual inspection and record findings before commencing any work.
    • •Familiarize yourself with the specific manufacturer repair methods for the vehicle being assessed.
    • •Practice time management to complete all required tasks within the assessment window while maintaining quality.
    • •Use the correct tool for each task; improvised techniques are a safety risk and will be penalized.
    • •Ensure all work is checked against the job card and any deviations are justified.
    • •Ensure your portfolio includes evidence of a range of repair types (e.g., metallic, solid, pearlescent) and application methods to demonstrate versatility.
    • •During practical observations, verbalise your decision-making process—explain why you chose a specific grit, mixing ratio, or spray pattern—to showcase underpinning knowledge.
    • •Practice time management to complete tasks within the allowed duration without compromising quality; employers expect economical repair times.
