Welcome to the web based FCC License test preparation page.  These test preparation pages cover the Marine Radio Operator's Permit [mrop], the General Radio Operator's License [grol] and the Global Marine Distress Safety System Operator's License [gmdss operator] and the Global Marine Distress Safety System Maintainer's License [gmdss maintainer], and the Radar Endorsement.

We believe that it's important to have a grasp of the knowledge, it's equally important to measure and identify area's we are lacking.   Once we fills the gaps in our knowledge base, further testing validates our knowledge base and builds self confidence.  This self-assessment process gives you confidence when you sit for the test.  Preparation is the key.  This site is not a primary teaching mechanism. 

The FCC License test composition:

• Element 1 tests consists of 24 questions from the question pool of 170 questions.
• Element 3 tests consists of 76 questions from the question pool of 916 questions.
• Element 8 tests consists of 50 questions from the question pool of 321 questions.
• Element 7 tests consists of 100 questions from the question pool of 600 questions.
• Element 9 tests consists of 50 questions from the question pool of 300 questions.

The questions are the latest from the the FCC question pool as of Oct 29, 2007

Take the FCC sample tests for a quick assessment.  They're free.  If you feel you scored well enough to pass the FCC license tests then you have my congratulations.   

If you scored less than the high 90s on the sample tests, consider subscribing to our Web based FCC Test Preparation.  Don't let the first time you sit to take the FCC License test be the first time you see it.  Enhance your chances of passing the license tests on your first attempt.. For the price of most packages, you get all the elements for the MROP, GROL, GMDSS Operator, GMDSS Maintainer, and radar endorsement tests.

This is not a U.S. Government website.

Good luck in your endeavors.

This is without a doubt the best FCC test site on the internet. I used this site in order to study for Elements 1 and 3 so I could attain my FCC GROL License. I got one question wrong on the entire test! I finished all 100 questions in 39 minutes. Perhaps, if I had taken 40 minutes I would have had a perfect score! Next month I will take Element 9 for my GMDSS Maintainer License. Piece of cake! Gene Carl / KSSB-FM 10/28/2003 1:35:25 AM
