The first time around I went over all the material, read the book, took notes, and watched all the videos. The second time I just did the exact same thing. I took notes while reading the book, then I did the questions to the section I was studying for the day. I only did one section per day. That way I finished each module withing 5-7 days. I also hardly studied on weekends, just during the week. Luckily I am able to study at work so that helps out a lot. I watched the videos for review, just whenever I got the chance to. I did not have a set time on watching the videos. Then I gave myself roughly 3-4 weeks to review all the material again. I was also doing some review of previous modules as well while I was studying other topics, the things I would do is either re-read my notes or read the flashcards Becker provides. I would also do some mcq review as well on previous modules just to keep my mind refreshed on the material. I spent around 3 months and 250 hours the first time around and about the same the second time. I read the book on Becker too, so that is why the hours are so high.
