PPL theory study technique
Hi All,
my ground school is about to start soon, the school is aiming to prepare everyone for the sitting that takes place at the end of March. (In Ireland we have to do all subjects/exams in one go, after that we can re-do the failed ones) I have all the Trevor Thom books (latest edition from pooleys), I've completed some of them already, started looking into AirQuiz and some other mock exams - turns out nothing's sticking! I can do navigation and other subjects that involves maths/logic just fine, but things like Air Law, Procedures, HP simply wont stick.
Obviously the panic mode is on. What is the usual technique for students to tackle theory? Do you make sure you know most of the theory before ground school begins and use the school simply to revise on subjects or should you go to ground school as a "blank page", knowing bare minimum hopping that you will get the entire exam syllabus in your head before the exam date? How does one plough through 7 books in a few weeks time and remembers all of it?
