General Thoughts

[PFWinkler]

I've been studying for a bit now, and seem to have flat lined my score. I think I need to practice problems (I think I have the fundamentals down OK) - but lack that transition from practical knowledge to problem based knowledge. Any thoughts on how based to handle this? OG, Supplements + PrepPack should really be enough to work through? Any content one doesn't understand, then refer back to the Strategy guides?!

It sounds like you're ready to start working on OG, yes.

Note this: Most of your learning will come not when you're doing the problems but after you're done, when you're analyzing them and figuring out what you need to get better at for next time.

Here's how you do that:

And, yes, you're going back into your strategy guides, or any other resources you have, when you discover that you've got a particular weakness that you need to improve.

Let me know if you have any questions about the 2nd Level stuff. Then try it out and tell me how it's going. (Expect the analysis to be slow / take time at first. You'll become more efficient as you better learn how to learn from these problems!)

Thank you! Will do! Just signed up for several private tutoring classes as well - so hopefully that will speed-up the process!

Good luck! Let me know how it goes!
