Hey man. What materials did you use. How did you study for it? and how long did it take you. Can you leave some feedback

I did that. I read the book just once then went to exams. And yes, you see the pattern of questions, concepts that they want you to know. Then I went back to the textbook and study those concepts. I was getting really high scores on Knopman online practice test. However on real exam, most of...
