Hello guys, I am a new member for this site. I would like to get your advice, especially from those of you who took the board and pass. Is it better for me to do more questions everyday or review each materials would help?I have only two weeks left to take the exam.And I have already did as much as 3000questons. I apprciate your advice.

I'm not sure what you're asking....do you mean continue to do questions daily OR just read through materials? If that's what you're asking, I'd have to say keep doing questions. I think no matter what, if you still have 2 weeks left, I wouldn't back off on questions; they keep your mind on the right track.

Mostly, though, it depends on how you've done so far on those questions: have you followed a specific plan that gives you an expectation of the grades you should receive on practice tests? How have you done?

I agree, keep doing questions. This way it keeps you in the testing frame of mine all the time and if you do comprehensive questions (all of the material is together rather than broken down by subject) then you're getting a little bit of everything. If you have tests you can do by subject then do them and learn what your weak spots are and then read up on those areas and go back later and see how you've done with retaining the material. Don't overload yourself, though. 3,000 questions is very admirable.

Thank you guys for your wonderful advice. I will do questions with rationales till the exam day and evaluate myself for my weak spot so I can work on it.
