CWI exam / math questions / how many and covering what?
(OP)
How much math is really on the CWI exam and what does it cover?
Also, in which section, A, B, or C, of the exam will the math questions, if any, be in?
Thanks.

I'd say about 10% of the questions in Parts A (Fundamentals) and B(Practical) involve some Math. Most of the Math you'd have covered in the WIT-T, CM, and Practical seminar.
If you review the CWI body of knowledge, it'll give you an idea of the sort of questions that entail some Math.
If you can compute the C.E. of low alloy steel with the formula provided, then, you should have no problems with the level of difficulty of Math. From what I hear, it is no harder than NICET type Math.
Math questions should be the least of your concerns; and I would not be surprised if you got all correct.
