  6. There may be support information that is required to answer the questions. You can access this information by clicking on "Show Support Information" located in the question box.
  7. Your test will not be timed. You can take as much time as you need to complete this test. Please keep in mind, however, that the actual test that you take to gain employment with the County of Los Angeles will be timed.

It was not intended to serve as the sole instruction method or initial exposure to the subject area. Instead, it should serve as a refresher mechanism in your examination preparation.
