If you are studying for a United States Coast Guard Engineering License exam which
includes these modules, you should work through these questions until you
are scoring 80% or better on them.

QMED is an abbreviation for Qualified
Member of the Engineering Department. There are a number of
different "QMED ratings." The most common for both steam and motor
(i.e., diesel propelled) ships is the "Oiler" rating. Many older
steam vessels also require the "Fireman/Watertender" rating.
Tankships require "Pumpman," and vessels with electrical cargo gear
carry one or more crewmembers with an "Electricians" rating.
Additional ratings include "Refrigeration Engineer," "Deck Engineer,"
"Machinist," and the "Junior Engineer." If you obtain all of
these ratings you may obtain a rating of "QMED - All Ratings."
A special QMED rating was created for
diesel powered offshore supply vessels working in the offshore oil
industry and is called Oiler (OSV). It is only valid on offshore
supply vessels and not on vessels such as diesel ferries. Two
additional ratings were created for modern power plants with varying
degrees of automation. These ratings are the "Engineman" and the
"Deck Engine Mechanic." These two ratings do not require additional
testing after you obtain the required ratings, experience, and
training specified in Coast Guard regulations.
The test required for any
rating is composed of two modules (i.e., parts). The first
module is called "QMED -
General." You must pass this module before you can take the
module for the specific rating (or ratings) you desire.
