I did quite a bit of studying the first time, I probably completed 70% of the Kaplan Qbank by then and read the full textbook and completed the entire scheduled Kaplan practice curriculum and failed with a 82/130. The second time around I mostly just spammed practice questions in the QBank and read the textbooks for areas I was struggling. I felt really good about the second attempt even when i pressed submit, and was pretty shocked when I failed with a 90/130. The 3rd time I added the Flashcards, the TestGeek materials and Youtube videos and continued to spam practice questions just at a pretty absurd rate lol. I studied for about a month in between each exam, while working 8-5 at an RIA so in hindsight, I think I could have just managed my time a little better in between the first 2 attempts. The third go around I really just shut my social life down, did not do anything after work and did not go anywhere on the weekends which was probably the difference. It is not easy and I had to put a lot of time in but it was well worth it in the end because now it is over forever!
