In episode 3 of the Basic Wisdom podcast, Brandon describes how to build an effective study plan. One of the biggest pitfalls for test takers is a lack of preparation, which is almost always due to a bad or non-existent study plan. Dump sheets, test taking skills, and how to know when you're ready for the exam are additional topics covered in this podcast.
