How many guys are actually studying? I have noticed and have spoken to others and everyone states that alot of people gave up and all the classes are pretty empty!
That's definitly true. Alot of the "hardcore studiers" from May & June I know have given up. As far as the classes, I attend the Key and lets just say parking is a breeze, the line for materials is non-existant, and you can have any seat in the house you want...even if your late! I can think of 10-15 guys in my command alone that paid for classes and didn't sign up for the test, or paid for the test and stopped studying. Most of the old-timers say this is customary with every exam, though. I'd consider myself to be a pretty aggressive studier, but this material has a sure way of making you feel unconfident. I can't wait for this exam to be over. I'm sure I'll regret promotion when I realize I'll likely never hit the cap again, hah!
It is customary. IMO the hardest part about the exam is the preparation and remaining consistent. Classes will fill up again for the cram courses. Just keep it up and u will be fine. Good luck.
Who thinks history will repeat itself and the writters of the exam will test heavy in the same areas as they have been testing in? From what I understand there are new writters.
Brat, so how do you feel on the new writters hitting these same heavily tested areas? Will they continue or do you feel there going to throw a curve ball and ask never before asked procedures?
