Very well written.The exams are not tough at all, what people are mostly scared of is the vast syllabus and the mostly irrelevant subject matter, I have cleared all the exams so far in the very first attempt without any coaching.

- Prepare a schedule, roughly a month before the exam date(depending on how many papers you plan on giving.) Write down the topic you plan on finishing on each date on a piece of paper, total topics against the available days, this will also act as a evaluation of where you stand, for me:
*General Nav and Radio Aids require 3-4 weeks
*MET requires about 7-10 Days.
Considering I put around 4 Hours each day of uninterrupted studying.

- Read and make notes of all topics according to the syllabus(Leave nothing, even if you think it is not important, a lot of times you can recall matter that you have written down.)

- Solve the question banks and go back to the subject matter for the ones you get wrong.

- Get the damn books! Do not rely on notes, they are incomplete and contain half baked information, the good books will build your concepts.
