After 2 weeks of cramming I passed first try
The studying has been all consuming. I dream in NASAA and USA and IAA1940. It took 3.5 full pilot g2 pens, 2 full notebooks, and at least 20 sheets of printer paper worth of notes but I'm going into the holiday weekend victorious.
The test wasn't terribly hard. Wording is everything, little phrases change the meaning of the whole thing. Do your best to be well rested going into it, one of the toughest things was that I didn't sleep well the night before and cutting through the mental fog took a lot of effort. Only one equation used the whole time, mostly regs and laws. Ken is a god for this 4-5 questions straight out of his brutal exam, also 5-6 questions straight out of the Kaplan Qbank. The exam isn't terribly hard but it isn't easy. Take it slow, read thoroughly, eliminate what you know is wrong. Good luck everyone!
