Was the information from Week 1 clear and easy to understand?
Yes, the information in week one was explained well and easy to understand. I enjoyed all the videos. The Mnemonic that was taught in the video was incredibly helpful because it helps break down the question and allows for better comprehension. I also loved all the encouraging words and tips on how to train you mentality to pass the exam.

FAQs

Absolutely! Everyone who has taken this course has individual obligations. Making the time to study and using the 8 study tips listed in week 1 of the course is key. Do everything it takes to succeed because your time is valuable and you only need to pass once to avoid having to retake the exam.

Given that the course lasts for nine weeks, I would allot an extra one to two weeks for review, introspection, and clarification of any content that may be challenging. Therefore, do not put off scheduling your exam and try to take it between weeks 10 and 12. It's preferable to take the exam while you still remember the material and your mind is already wired to actively study.

It typically contains key information, summaries, practice questions, and other aids that help students focus their efforts on essential concepts.
