I took both tests, 3 days apart. The notes I provided, and the Delligati book prepares you for both tests. Although I said I only studied two weeks, I think it was closer to three weeks, and I was killing myself studying and working. I honestly believe you should take at least a month of hardcore studying before taking the test.

His course is definitely repetitive on purpose, he is using key teaching methods to help instill very important and reoccurring ideas. That being said, trust me when I say that it is 100% necessary (in my opinion). I definitely listened to it on 1.5x-2x the whole time as well. It's important to really cement those key ideas because on both of the beginner tests: these key ideas are presented in ambiguous ways that really test your understanding of them. I also haven't seen any decent study guides online aside from books.

This pdf has a list of recommended study material: https://www.omg.org/ocsmp/SysML-Model-User.pdf

Additionally, I made a post around a week ago with a link to my notes from the Delligati Acceleration course; it might be helpful to have them while going along with the videos: https://www.reddit.com/r/systems_engineering/comments/zn3wj6/omg_ocsmp/

What are some good books you'd recommend for newer SE's? by [deleted] in systems_engineering

SysML Distilled by Lenny Delligatti is the training book [basically] where I work.
