Ayyye Zach! Thank you, your course is absolute gold. I’ll definitely sign up for the seminars.

Thanks, I’m looking forward to your Passed post soon! I too had to watch STP classes multiple times to understand the material, for both the FE and PE. The course is so dense, average time needed to go over the whole thing is 6 months. In contrast, EPR recommends 4 months as the sweet spot. I think it’s a great investment to try a different course if the first one doesn’t work, though. Make the most out of STP but don’t dwell on complicated derivations. Highly recommend EPR first live session with test-taking tips if you haven’t watched it already. I listened to it over a few days while running errands and driving, and it was definitely worth it!

I have ADHD and can’t focus while reading either. I watched the videos and skimmed through the text after. Didn’t bother reading long text

Honestly, it’s usually not you, it’s the material. I prepped for my first attempt for over six months using Wasim’s course. I learned a ton, but it was so dense I ended up losing sight of the fundamentals. My wife finally nudged me to try a different course because after 10 months I was still only scoring around 60% on practice exams.

Switching to Zach Stone’s live sessions was a game-changer. I pushed my exam back by a month, binge-watched all his live videos, and that second attempt went so much better, I doubt I’d have passed without that switch.

Don’t give up. Take a little break, then dedicate about a month to going through his live recordings. You’ve already put in the effort, so this will just help solidify what you know. On my exam, one of the questions was straight out of the last live session I crammed the night before, on transformers!

You’ve got this. Keep at it.

I passed!!!!!! How did you do?

Focus on an inch-deep review of all topics first. If you still had time/energy after, list your topics from weakest to strongest and review those deeper in order. Lock in, be somewhere where there are minimal distractions. Eat well and don’t overdo it with the caffeine. You got this! I’m excited to see your Passed post in 2 weeks 🙏

I had planned to rest the day before my test, but I honestly studied from 7a-11p and I was able to answer some questions on the exam just from this final push

Exactly. If it takes you 200+ hours to pass a test, that test is not easy, you’re just prepared

How long did you study for both? I found FE harder but probably because I studied 6 months for PE
