What is your study pattern?
byteofthebigapple
I read that some studied for months while others studied for weeks ... are you studying several hours a day or a few days a week ... I have tried committing to 3 hours a day but after work it is rough. I don't know how long to wait for the test - can I do it in a month or several months? How do I know when "its time?"
I'm in the "warm up stretch" ...

I usually set sertain segments to dedicate that day like if I am watching CBT Nugget videos, I dedicate two-three slides per sitting and go back to take notes, no matter how long it takes (could be 1-2 hours to finalize everything). If I am reading that day I also say to myself I can get through 2-3 full chapters with any questionaires or notetaking I have to do (helpful hints or some more brushing up I have to do). At the end of the segmented chapters I set I finalize the notes and answers to topics I may have been questionable on. I know when I am actually ready for a test when I start doing better on practice tests and getting a good grasp on the concepts of the syllabus of the exam. Sometimes I do procrastinate and get lazy so it takes me about 2-3 months (sometimes more) in-between exams.
It might be a little different for you but if you do take practice exams or the exams at the end of the chapters and do well on them I guess that might be a way to guage if you are ready or not.
You will know when its time

I've come across plenty of "Study Tips" via google. There are sooo many ways to study, you're bound to find one that fits you perfectly.

This might sound ridiculous but while im at work I have the CBT nuggets of the exam im going to study playing in my headphones. Most time I'm doing work but I am surprised at what I still absorb while passively listening to the video.
