I've been told by a few people that the NUF test they took had a P10 question (10% Methane, 90% Argon).
Having taken the NUF via NANTEL in Apr 2011 and Apr 2012 at Columbia and Fermi respectively and having reviewed the Amazon Edition of Nukeworker.com Cram Notes (nice job by the way), I noticed the absence of these minor topics in the text.
F18
Glow curve
P10 mix
Gm sensitivity
The two tests I took were remarkably similar to each other and to the Amazon Edition of Nukeworker.com Cram Notes.
I've looked in the NUF study guide, and I see no mention of P10, or Methane. The only mention of Argon (as a fill gas) is when it talks about GM detectors, and it states "the quenching gas is a halogen gas such as bromine or chlorine".
My question to you is this: Since the
NUF was added to NANTeL, have you gotten a P-10 question? If so, what exactly did the question ask? And what were the correct and incorrect answers? I find it odd that there would be a test question that is not mentioned in the study material.
I don't doubt wlrun, but subsequent reports quote him so I would like it independently verified. But it's just odd that there would be no mention of it in the 2005 study guide.
I appreciate all of the feedback. I'll try to get the next version of the study guide released this year.
