I am starting to think that you need a bit more intelligence then I actually have to be able to do these exams? It scary as I'm only on the first part of GNAV and not into the hard stuff yet I bet.
Been reading books on learning and all saying about the testing effect and how its best form of learning but think it just makes me spiral down and down and doesn't seem to help. Books also suggest flashcards which I can see value in but you have to be consistent with them.
Also, how do people manage time? Do people do 2 or 3 hours or just space it out in smaller chunks?
Please can anyone offer any advise?
Smash the question bank then repeat the questions you got wrong 2 or 3 times. I used Bristol Groundschools online bank its amazing.
any subjects you have an interest in, or are still struggling with, do the material.
Oh, the crammers are very good, as funnily enough, people typically struggle with the same stuff.
Welcome to the great EASA ATPL(A) wax on wax off routine.
