I failed the first exam in May with 4 BPs and 1 MP after studying at a slow-pace over 10 months. I did the 6 month individual study through Rita Mulcahy but really didn't devote the time and attention needed either on the quizzes or the practice exams. I only did 3 practice exams, scoring in the 60s, and I never did a thorough review of the questions. I just thought I could wing it, and clearly I was not prepared. It took me forever to answer the questions both during studying and taking the exam.
I am planning on taking the exam again this year before the 2018 overhaul. I took a two month break after the exam to clear my mind. After reading through this forum, pmzilla, and edward-designer, I have a new approach to studying. I've put together more detailed notes in the attachment. I found some very helpful tips on various forums to put together my own study plan. What do you guys think?
