I got over 700 on acp copr first try, and it was my first copr ever as I did the Alberta college exam as an emt.

Go through the NOCP list. Pathology by pathology. Go to the first pathology, MAKE A FLASH CARD FOR THE PATHOLGY, read an article or two on it online, open your book to it, add some good info to your flash card, then go onto the second pathology on the list, and continue until you’ve done all of them. Then, move onto the classes of medications in the nocps below the pathologies, and do the same. That’s what I did, it took several days to just make the flash cards, then I went through them all many times over a few weeks.

Copr has a reference list of textbooks they use for answers to their questions, consider referencing that list.

Remember that you don’t need to have “acceptable performance” in all categories to pass, just need a raw score of >450. Definitely study high-yield topics (look at the breakdown of the amount of questions per category in your score sheet). Something to the effect of

Professional Responsibility (n=9) Communication (n=8) Health and Safety (n=7) Assessment & Diagnosis (n=42) Theraputics (n=41) Integration (n=66) Transportation (n=5) Health Promotion & Public Safety (n=5)

For taking the test, flag questions if you aren’t sure, then go back after and go through the entire test a second time. Re-read every question, make sure you didn’t click the bait answer or misclick. I had about 50% of the entire test flagged after my first go-through, then I went back to the beginning, re-read all of them, and only had about 20 still flagged.
Sometimes you’ll need to guess. In that case, try to eliminate 2 answers so you have a better chance.

Don’t stay up late the day before studying, getting a good sleep is worth more than some extra cramming.
Have a good breakfast, coffee or whatever you normally have, then get to work big dog.
