What is the best way to prepare for a railroad test"CSX"? Reading Comprehension and math test?

  • What is the best way to prepare for a railroad test"CSX"? Reading Comprehension and math test?

  • Answer:

    Is this for an agreement, or nonagreement position? I work for a Class I. The skill test I took was basic math- long division, fractions, decimals. I have a friend who runs for CSX from Richmond to Philly on the juice train. Whenever he has to qualify, he makes flash cards- and hasn't answered wrong yet.

The reading test is not all that difficult...take your time and try to retain as much info as possible....you will need it later... the math part seems to trip most applicants up... study up on your fractions..... and here's a little secret... if your not at least 75% sure of an answer leave it blank... wrong answers count against you...blank ones don't....good luck....its a decent company to work for.... working on my 38 years now...

High school should be a pretty good way. Took the BNSF test in Feb, and it was just basic algebra.... don't remember any of the english on it though... probably a different requirement.

Seems like only guys submitted answers to you here, about testing for the railroads. I could be entirely wrong, the avatars appear to be male, as for your being prepared. You're suppose to function and comprehend at least at the 8th grade level or above for reading and math sections. The higher the better of course, I agree with your first respondent Hoghead, about readying your skills and just going for it!
