Your 4-Phase Study Plan
Follow these phases in order. Each one builds on the last.
Build Your Foundation
Complete all course material & videos
- —Complete all pre-license course material and watch every video. Every video in your course is there for a reason — don't skip or rush through them.
- —Set a daily study schedule from day one. Target your exam 10 days after enrolling for single-line or 14 days for dual-line.
Don't Overlook State Laws
Go through State Law modules at least twice
- —State laws carry real weight on the exam. Many states put heavy emphasis on state-specific regulations. The first pass builds awareness — the second is where it actually sticks.
- —Leave time for a final State Law review before exam day. A quick refresh close to your exam date goes a long way.
Exam Prep & Practice Tests
Complete all exam prep material, score 80%+ three times in a row
- —Score 80%+ on practice exams three times in a row before scheduling. That consistency proves real readiness — not just a lucky score.
- —Complete all of your exam prep material and review every wrong answer before moving on. Don't skip sections — gaps in prep show up on test day.
Exam Week — Lock It In
Final days before your exam
- —Postpone if you're 3 days out and not consistently hitting 80%+. It's far better to reschedule than to sit for an exam you're not ready for.
- —Light review only in the final 2 days — State Law and weak areas only. Sleep 7-8 hours the night before and arrive at your test center 20-30 minutes early.
Study Consistency
Students who study every day — even for just 20-30 minutes — consistently outperform those who cram or take multi-day breaks. Make it a daily habit from day one and your exam prep will feel natural by the time exam day arrives.
