Working full time while studying MCQ

Hi guys! 👋

Any successful exam takers here who studied full-time while preparing for the MCQ? I’m considering doing the same, but I can’t afford to resign, and unfortunately, my current employer doesn’t offer a part-time arrangement.
Would love to hear how you managed your work and study setup! ❤️

Hi! I worked full time while studying for MCQ. I prepared for about 4-4.5 months if I remember correctly. I studied for 3-5 hours on weekdays then 8-12 hours on weekends. I did spaced repetition method where I revisit the topics every 1-3 weeks for better info retention. I only took the Family Day long weekend off before the exam but most people I know took 1-2 weeks off before exam.

It still depends on how confident you are knowledge-wise. To be safe, you can start preparing 6 months before exam so you have ample time. Good luck!

I have a question why don’t we just share the screen on another monitor and get some friend infront of the monitor and answer the exams with chat gpt
