I stumbled on the How to Pass the EPPP Exam Without Even Trying , which aside from secretly hating them for naming their blog that, they have A LOT of helpful articles, resources, and tips. A place I would definitely check out if you are getting yourself together. I also found this site for flashcard exchange that has about 100 or so sets of shared EPPP flashcards. There is a one time fee of $20 if you want to be able to print or export them, but free if you want to look through them, study on or offline, and I have done the copy and paste route, which has worked so far. Good variety, but some are better than others, obviously, because some yahoos put like fifty bits of information on one card (kind of defeats the purpose of a flashcard, eh?).
Okay, so here is my plan:
1. Study everyday.
2. Study for 16-20 hours per week on average (not including practice tests).
3. Study for 2 months, max 3.
4. Read through all these crazy AATBS materials at least once. It couldn't hurt.
5. Listen to audio CDs while traveling and at the beach.
6. Make flashcards (with a small amount of information on each one) and go through a section, at least, daily.
7. Monitor personal insanity level and take breaks when needed.
8. Take 2-3 practice tests a week initially. Up to one or more per day as it gets closer.
9. Try not to OD on coffee, sugar, and other (legally obtained) stimulants.
10. Take this mofo when I can get a steady 72-75 on my practice tests.
That doesn't sound like much?!?!?
Any suggestions along the way would be great.
So, Maggie..what happened??!! Did you ace that sucker?
