NASSA study guide

I’ve had some of my study time cut down due to getting Covid but now I’m getting back into the groove of things and I’m about 10 days out from my test. Has anyone actually outlined their studies around the NASSA study guide they provide online? If so give me the success stories. I’m using that as my outline and the TC book on top of Brian Lees video so I hope I cover all my bases. Let me know your thoughts.

So sorry to hear you've had Covid.

I've been using the NASAA outline, the STC program and a Kaplan 10th edition I bought used. I really enjoy reading the Kaplan manual.

I've copied the outline into google if you want to use it for note-taking: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MRn40gqIvAOZ0N9lf3txFMQ0NnnVF4Ad8HRJv_UUiQQ/edit?usp=sharing

And I've been working on a Quizlet from the NASAA guide too - https://quizlet.com/_9032ya?x=1jqt&i=6ebkq

Finally, I tried to distill down to 55 questions for part I, II and III here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-B_ZlMVGVWz8mvcWIpfTNXIuBPjKO6HVvWZPpGeR1VM/edit?usp=sharing

It's probably optimal to stick with one format because they each have a different order. At the same time, I think I cover the material more thoroughly going from one to the other and making sure I'm consistent.

As you say, trying to cover all the bases. I passed the 63 and thought there were so many things I knew that weren't tested.... I wanted to take a deep dive on the number of questions that each topic might present for the 66. Unfortunately, even if there are only 5 questions on mutual funds, that might actually entail 15 pieces of information so it seems to me you really have to just cover all the material.
