It screens for positions like mechanic, electrician, welder, pipefitter, machinist, rigger, steelworker, instrument and control repairer, painter, and insulation worker.

How many sections are on the MASS Exam, and what are they?

The MASS exam is a paper-and-pencil, multiple-choice test typically composed of four main aptitude test batteries:

  • Reading Comprehension
  • Mechanical Concepts
  • Assembling Objects (Spatial Ability)
  • Mathematical Usage

What topics are covered on the MASS exam?

What is a passing score on the MASS exam?

There is no universal passing score for the MASS test. The required score varies depending on the specific job position and the company where you're applying. Your score is calculated as an index from 0-15, and each employer sets their own threshold based on the role.

Can I use a calculator on the MASS exam?

Calculators are provided during the test for the mathematical sections. You won't need to bring your own, and the test is designed to assess your problem-solving abilities with the tools you'd have on the job.

What is the difference between the MASS exam and the POSS exam?

Both are EEI aptitude tests. The MASS (Maintenance Selection System) exam is designed for maintenance positions (Electrician, Mechanic, etc.). The POSS (Plant Operator Selection System) exam is designed for plant operator positions. Some utilities may administer a combined test battery if a position has a progression path into either operations or maintenance.

I bought the MASS practice tests from Prephow and they were spot on. The questions drilled me hard on mechanical principles, electrical theory, print reading, and troubleshooting power plant systems. Felt totally ready walking into the real exam and passed on the first try. Worth every penny!
