Hi, Danny!
Sorry to hear that!
As you know, the post-exam report only shows the correct % for each domain, in case of the candidate fails the exam.

A recommendation I always give my students when teaching CTS Prep is:

- use the JTA as a mirror for a self-evaluation. Print the whole table (that's 8 pages), get a green, yellow and red markers and go through each topic in each column (Knowledge, Skills and Abilities, and Tools, Equipment, and Resources).

- mark in green what you really know already, in yellow the topics you may need a refresher, and in red those that you will need to study and learn.

You must need to have you JTA at least 70~80% green to be ready for the exam.

Hope this helps, and wish you best of luck next time! 

Comment on Sample question

Hi, Anthony!
The book says, in page 60: "Line level in the professional audio system is in the vicinity of 1V."

Actually, the standard professional audio level is +4dBu. and dBu is referenced to 0.775V.

If we do the math, we have: 20 x log (1,23 / 0,775) = 20 x log (1.587) = 20 x 0.200 = 4.

So, this is the EXACT value for professional audio line level: 1,23V, which is +4dB above 0.775v (the reference for dBu).

But... we sometimes allow ourselves to say that 'pro audio line level is around 1V',  as we read in the book... (When I teach the CTS Prep class, I always have a slide with the proper values for all dB references) 

Good luck!
