Episode 6 — Study Roadmap and Weekly Cadence
This episode converts the exam blueprint into a practical study plan you can actually follow. We begin by aligning domain weightings to weekly sprints so heavier areas receive proportionally more time without starving lighter but tricky topics. You will see how to interleave reading, active recall, and exam-style practice so concepts move from familiarity to fluent application, which is what scenario questions demand. We also define a weekly rhythm—two content blocks, one practice set, one debrief session—that creates predictable repetition, measurable progress, and space to close gaps before they compound.
We expand with examples of timeboxing and artifact-driven review so every hour has an outcome, such as a refined glossary, a set of calibrated scales, or a mini case write-up. Best practices include spaced repetition for formulas-free reasoning, mixed-question sets to avoid tunnel vision, and a red–amber–green tracker for weak objectives. Troubleshooting guidance covers how to recover after a missed week, how to adjust cadence when mock scores plateau, and how to build a final two-week taper that emphasizes stamina, timing, and decision discipline over cramming.
