Keep in mind that the fulltime Flight Planning course at Maroochydore is about 2 weeks long, with lots of homework each night, and many practise exams, using up most weekends. The instructor then recommends that you self-study for at least another two weeks, which includes a practise exam each day (which easily takes three hours each attempt).

It's very intensive, with speed and accuracy requiring priority
The only issue with the practise exams is the fact there’s only a certain amount of questions. From memory, you’d start seeing the same questions on #5. It might help you gauge your speed/accuracy to a certain extent.
