### 4/5 — Good, except today

*2025-12-14*

Did a full length practice exam today. The app glitched multiple times and closed down on me. And the timer stopped working after the first glitch. Otherwise this app has worked well for me for the past few months.

### 3/5 — Lifetime membership?

*2025-03-25*

Loved this app when I used it to study in for my exam in 2022. Passed first try but I re-downloaded it to refresh my memory on the codebook, and found I no longer have access even though I purchased lifetime access. Great app, disappointed that my lifetime membership has run out.

### 5/5 — Great Resource

*2024-09-13*

Myself and a group of classmates made good use of this app in our training for our Red Seal exams. It was an incredibly useful resource and I would highly recommend it for any student preparing to write.

### 5/5 — CEC Red Seal Exam Practice App

*2024-06-08*

Downloaded the pro version almost immediately because I liked the easy pick up/on the go format, even without using a code book you could still learn a lot from this app, it develops muscle memory/keeps things fresh and helps me study when I’m in the go and I can’t use my full sized 2021 code book 

Would recommend the full version to any aspiring electrical apprentice that needs to study for the 309A red seal C of Q

### 1/5 — Could be better

*2026-07-17*

Website and apps freezes every 5 mins. When u try to refresh and it still frozen. Surprised its this bad considering its not free and the subscription is hefty.

**Developer response:** Hi! Can you send me a message at support@dakotaprep.com with your email and device info so I can look into this issue.

### 1/5 — Repeats same questions to often.

*2026-07-03*

Studying like crazy and this app seemed great until I just memorize the questions answers now without even needing to refer to the code book…

### 1/5 — Incorrect theory

*2026-06-19*

Expensive, doesn’t explain theory good. AI On this app doesn’t take any criticism to wrong answers. Everytime i report a wrong answer they say they are right. Mind you they also don’t even show you the question again when they explain “the right answer “.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear about your experience. Can you send me a message at support@dakotaprep.com with the incorrect questions?

### 1/5 — Csa group practice exam is better

*2025-10-18*

The csa group has a practice exam that is significantly better this app Cec Dakota is the farthest thing from helpful for cfq prep

**Developer response:** Hi, sorry to hear that you didn’t have the best experience on the app. What was missing on our app? We’ve had thousands of students pass using our app and hired trained instructors who know the C of Q build our curriculum.

### 1/5 — Absolutely useless and irrelevant

*2025-10-02*

This app has nothing to do with exam.

### 2/5 — Great tool when it’s not crashing

*2026-05-25*

Great studying tool, but crashes a lot. Especially while using the AI tutor,it’s very frustrating.

### 2/5 — Not Representative of the Level 1 Challenge Exam

*2026-02-04*

I used this app to prepare for the Level 1 Challenge exam and unfortunately did not pass. The theoretical practice tests in the app turned out to be not very relevant to the actual Level 1 exam.

Most of the theory questions in the app focus mainly on Ohm’s Law and basic power formulas, while the real Level 1 exam included a large amount of electronics: transistors, diodes, thyristors, various DC circuits, different physical laws, as well as magnetism.

The theory questions on the exam were not extremely difficult, but I did not expect them to appear at all. Because of that, I was not properly prepared for this part of the exam.

The only part of the app that I found truly useful was the Canadian Electrical Code preparation, which was helpful.

Overall, the app may be useful for code practice, but it does not fully reflect the scope of the Level 1 theory exam.

**Developer response:** Hey Nicholas, we are taking this feedback in and making sure we adjust accordingly with our curriculum team.

### 3/5 — not for BC challenge exam

*2026-06-05*

it was entirely useless for the BC challenge level exam.

**Developer response:** Hi, can you send us some curriculum feedback to support@dakotaprep.com? Would love to send it over to our curriculum team

### 3/5 — Problems on IPad

*2025-10-25*

Purchased the pro version on my iphone and went to download on my iPad and the Sign in with Apple ID function does not work. Would like to have the fixed asap.

**Developer response:** Hi Fatal, can you message us at support@dakotaprep.com? Hoping to get this resolved for you soon.

### 3/5 — App fails to open

*2025-04-17*

Bought and paid for worked great for a year today it fails to open

**Developer response:** Hi, sorry for the experience. We just fixed the bug and it should be working fine now. Please update the app!

### 5/5 — inqury

*2026-03-17*

when do you usually offer the all access discount? i missed it last time was very disappointed to myself

### 5/5 — Top notch

*2025-11-25*

Best upgrade ever. Now i can reach from browser from my computer and having people to chat with is awesome. Bonus is AI teacher. Tried couple of times and been surprisingly good so far.

### 5/5 — a must have for red seal prep

*2025-11-13*

Practiced this every day before my red seal exam. Some of the questions were near verbatim to what I was seeing on here daily. I don’t think I would have scored as well if I wasn’t engaging myself with IP related questions throughout the week on top of class lessons! 

I still do the practices to keep myself knowledgeable even though I’ve been licensed for 6 months!

### 5/5 — Great app for passing electrical exam

*2025-04-22*

This app really helped me with preparing for my exam.  Also,  customer service is great whenever you have any questions.  Would greatly recommend

### 5/5 — Great app for exam prep

*2025-03-18*

This app is excellent for building confidence while preparing for my exam. What sets it apart is that it provides references to the relevant sections in the codebook for each question, making it incredibly helpful for resolving any confusion

### 5/5 — Exam Prep

*2025-03-18*

Great tool for exam prep, the question references are a great help! Easy app to navigate and great for quick study!

### 5/5 — Awesome exam prep!

*2025-03-11*

I would recommend this app to any electrician whether you are construction or industrial! I am personally a huge fan of the “no codebook” questions, it’s great for when you don’t have a codebook in front of you!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2025-03-11*

This app has helped me tremendously by refreshing my knowledge on CEC & its different sections. It is a great tool if you are looking to study for the CofQ. 

DEV team & support are always there for answering in a timely manner.

### 5/5 — All around great app

*2025-02-20*

This app is great. Pro version has tons of challenging questions along with hints and detailed explanations of how to find the answers properly. Customer service is also on point. Had to switch phones unexpectedly and the guys at Dakota Support were awesome with helping me get my purchase reactivated on the new device. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2024-10-30*

Highly recommend this app, with its challenging questions for someone that is prepping to get their certification in the electrical field, this app will teach you so many things! Also, with the hints that it gives as well, people can learn well from those. 
 5 STARS!!!
