Hey, I’m taking:
“Module 078 Navigation Problems - Oceans” passing score 80
&
“Module 018 Deck Safety + Rules of the Road” passing score 70
for 200 gt oceans mate license.
Where can I find some online study material?
Module 018 sounds weird. Deck safety and Rules of the Road and only a 70 passing score? Does that sound right??
Thanks!!!

Beats me…if that is whats on your approval letter go with it…be sure to save it in case you get thrown a curve-ball.

Lapware…well worth the money…lots of testimonials on here regarding it and other study aids.
As far as your passing score question…beats me. Go with whatever it says on your approval letter, and save it in case you get thrown a curve ball.

A quick Google found me this: https://towmasters.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/mm-deck-exam-guide.pdf which is the testing guide. If I read it correctly, the 018 module is for “aux sail”. the mods listed for your license are different and the ROTR part is at a 90% passing score.

You’re mostly right, it’s not a rules test per se. “Deck General” in the title should tell you it’s not the normal rules test. It’s for an aux. sail endorsement and includes a few rules questions amongst deck general. It’s 20 questions and passing grade for the entire module is 70% (the Rules content is [U]not[/U] graded separately). The rules questions are only those rules specific to sail vessels. It looks like this guy is going from Mate 200 N/C to Mate 200 Oceans, and adding Aux. Sail. The normal (90% passing) rules tests for all endorsements are either “Q100” or “Q300.”
That exam guide you looked at was correct on this, but it is outdated. It’s not the current version. I would be suspicious of Coast Guard documents from non Coast Guard sites, they often are not updated. The current versions are here: http://www.uscg.mil/nmc/training/exams/default.asp
