Trades apprenticeship applications open in Madison - 19 weeks in

The training centre near Madison opened applications for apprenticeships in electrical and welding trades. It has been a long 19 weeks. Applications close in 19 weeks. What do you wish you had known?

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

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 6 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
