HOW TO SPLIT THE BOOK

1. 1

   Start from the official exam content outline

   Every certifying body publishes the domains the exam covers and how much each is worth. Plan from that list, not from the order of the book.

2. 2

   Choose the exam date first

   Work backwards from a real date. A date turns a vague plan into weekly hours.

3. 3

   Split the learning time by exam weight

   Give each domain study time in proportion to its weight. Keep about a quarter of your time for practice questions and mock exams.

4. 4

   Read in passes

   First pass: read for the big picture. Second pass: take notes and make flashcards. Third pass: practice questions on the weak spots.

5. 5

   Finish with mock exams

   In the last weeks, sit full-length practice exams under time pressure, then fix the gaps they show.

STUDY PLAN SPLITTER
