Don't get too hung up with Grid Navigation and Polar Stereograph questions early on in the course. I did and wasted a lot of time. If you are finding them tough to crack, just move on and re-visit them at a later date.
By the time you go back to them, you will probably have completed a lot more of the Gen Nav material and they will become a lot clearer. Incidentally, there wasn't a single question on Grid Navigation and Polar Stereograph in my exam.
The same goes for pretty much anything that you are struggling with and remember you can always make use of the instructors/forums for DL courses.
A lot of people find Gen Nav tough early on, so don't get too down about it.
Good luck!

Matey , I did full time course and gen nav was a twxt from day one never understood a word, Worked like a biatch at it first time and like a lot of other people I got 74% which believe me is a bastard!
I then only had Gnav to take and studying for the one exam is so much easier I passed with 95% 2nd time .
Despite previous advice to the contrary this was solely down to using the BGS QB . Not learning answers but learning how to answer the questions on it , If you can answer them all , and believe me they are not actually that hard you will ace the exam .
About 200 questions on it are either CRP/5 and chart questions which are not difficult and can be bypssed once you got them sorted making only 350 ish you need to work at it . Take away the annex symbol questions and you narrow it donw even more . You can then cope with learning how to do the specific questions that cause you grief .
Gen nav is a classic " Training is harder than exam "
Learning how to do specific questions will stand you in good stead , and dont let anyone tell oyu that a greater understanding is needed , I hav enever even heard of polar stereographic since except when the butt of jokes at the Navs and CAA;s expense and there is a lot more just like that .
Good Luck whichever way you study
