This was my retake and my first attempt was a 205/300 so I barely missed passing. Felt super confident on my weak spots from my first attempt and honestly…I feel like I should have got more than 253 lol since nothing really felt weak to me. Overall, I’m just happy to pass since I was driving to the testing hour which is a 2.5-3 hour round trip through Maryland/Northern VA.
Since I know the questions will come, I used Sander’s v9 book and read it all the way through over a couple of months. Most of my practice was done using Claude. I had Claude create a curriculum after I finished the book. I would do guided practices where I would essentially walk through the process step by step to understand why things worked the way they did. I would then have Claude generate unguided practices so that I could verify/train myself on the information. Towards the end, I did a couple of comprehensive exams generated by Claude and quite a few “blitz exams” which were more specific exams that are 30-45 mins in length to simulate the timed pressure of the actual exam.
