Guest guest Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 ,One of the techniques I found helpful was to structure my studying so it mirrored the exam sitting. Every Saturday for approximately 2-3 months, I studied for 7 hours, forcing my brain to build the endurance it needed to do critical thinking for that length of time. The brain still felt fairly fresh after the exam, and I'm convinced that was a contributing factor to passing. Good luck!
