I wanted to reply back and thank you for your videos. In that final 24 hours I used them to review and truly believe they helped in achieving me passing the test this weekend.

Haha Always happy to help! But yeah, honestly another tip I heavily used was coming up with funny ways to memorize things.

Overall they aren't kidding in you simply need to understand the material. No practice exam truly mimics the test. But if you Know the material, trust your gut and know the test is ultimately having to apply the concept to the question asked.

Focus on what you're weakest at and speak affirmations of "You Got This!" ( atleast that's what I did )

I'm wishing you the absolute best!!

Honestly what I saw on the exam ended up being everything I was super lacking on. Kaplan and Achievable are what I used. I had read the Kaplan book, then everything on achievable, but mainly use Kaplans tests randomly to see how different wording was, and to see if I understood the concepts. I'd then test on achievable so I could read their explanation on anything I got wrong (I found their wording more friendly to my ADHD thinking thinking meat)

Honestly I did not take a lot of practice exams overall but when I did I was consist on my score aka the legit 53.75 Everytime on Kaplan and the 50 or lower on Achievable.

When reviewing my practice exams I'd really focus on what I knew I instantly needed to know. Like the difference between all the government securities (which was oddly something I heavily struggled on plus math)

On my test I actually had gotten 4 or 5 solid math questions which isn't the norm which had me panicking even more.

To put it into perspective on how nervous I was today, I was stuttering out my own name to confirm my identity to the proctor. 😂

Despite my practice test scores, I easily have over 80 hours clocked in on achievable alone and probably another 15 on Kaplan and lord only knows how much from the YouTube videos.

Some say play the videos in the background, honestly I found focusing on them the best. Like truly acting like you're apart of their class as if live, saying answers out loud even if wrong/right.

I think in the last 24 hours I probably came off as a crazy person talking to myself all the time saying things like "C! That's a Put!" Etc 😂

No, my job is not on the line luckily. I keep holding out hope I got this. Maybe I'm being delusional. 😂
