BICSI Installer 1 (INST1) Deluxe
The guide, the questions, and the hub. Deluxe includes everything in the Study Guide tier, plus the full 500-question practice bank, the six cheat sheets, and a license key for the LoadCairn online practice hub — all aimed at the INST1 written examination.
The real credential: a two-part exam — pass the proctored hands-on (six tasks, 20 minutes each) first, then the written exam: 75 multiple-choice questions in 2 hours. Application US$335 member / US$400 nonmember. BICSI publishes no passing score for the written exam, and neither do we. And the standing honesty note applies here too: this package prepares you for the written exam and teaches the knowledge behind the practical tasks — it does not replace hands-on practice with real tools before your hands-on date.
