Trades apprenticeship applications open in Jacksonville - 4 months and counting

The training centre near Jacksonville opened applications for apprenticeships in electrical and welding trades. There are 5 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. The application needs a diploma or equivalent, a driver's licence and a short aptitude test. What do you wish you had known?

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.

The aptitude test was mostly maths and reading a diagram. Free practice tests online were enough for me.
