I have taken and passed the test on the first try many years ago.  What Bob
is saying and you are conveniently not addressing is that there has to be
extensive verifiable work done in the alarm industry in the period
"immediately"  preceding your application, not 3, 4, or 5 years ago.  I had
to supply info [name, address, telephone # , work done on about 50
installations that were legally done in the previous year] before they would
even allow me to sit for a test.  Sure you are eligible to 'apply' but
without verifiable completed installations in the 'immediate' time period
before your application they won't even give you a date to show up and
prove, as you say, that you can pass the test.  And since you haven't done
any legal and verifiable alarm work in this time period...............you
are out of luck on becoming licensed in FL.  Sorry
