What tips do you guys have for me?
To study I'm using:
Hurst Videos(for content)

Please let me know what you guys used.
Thanks in advance!

Good luck!
Don't overwhelm yourself with a bunch of different approaches. I would just choose a couple (maybe one for content and one for strategies- my vote is Kaplan for strategies) and stick with those.

I used everything you used, except for the app, and passed Tuesday with 75 questions!
Good to know in on the right track! How long did you give yourself to study? I thought a month was good enough.
Honestly, I only had 12 days to study, but I didn't have a choice because of a job offer. One month is the perfect amount of time- you'll have more time to retain information and it won't be so stressful and hard on your brain! Good luck, the most important thing is to take your time during the test and remember to BREATHE! :)
Ok great! Thank you so much RN!!!! Good luck on your new job!

Hi! I am scheduled to test for the 2nd time July 18th. First time I only used VATI & to be honest I didn't actually study. Now I am basically cramming from now until my test date because my application expires July 22nd. I just never found the motivation to start studying again after failing anyway I am using the Kaplan Strategies 2013-14 book (just took the practice test on the CD and got a 63%), I also have the Hurst lectures, PDA, & the yellow Saunders book. I still have access to VATI but I just don't feel like I really like their questions that much. Anyway GOOD LUCK!
Good luck to you emmi! We are using the same things to study. Hopefully it will help us! Don't look at ut as cramming. A month is a long enough time to study. We know the info, it's just time to apply it critically. I will be praying that you pass as well!

How long should it take here in oregon for paperwork to process so I can apply for a test date? It's been about 3.weeks.
