Hey Everyone,
I’ve noticed in a lot of these topics/responses that some people prefer to do thousands of multiple choice questions as a method of learning and was wondering how well this worked?
I spoke with a few professors at my school’s acct department (granted, they are not professional test-takers) and they felt that too many students focus on MCQs, but really don’t get the concepts and stall when they sit for the test; they simply end up memorizing practice answers. Anyways, the consensus was MCQs should only be used to evaluate where you stand after you feel that you’ve mastered certain concepts. Example of a typical week: After studying concepts for 20 hours, do 1 hr of questions, as opposed to studying for 14 hours and doing 7 hours of questions.
Just wondering if any of you passed this way? I read in a post that someone did 3,000 questions in one month. That comes out to about 100 questions a day, which @ an average of 1.5 minutes a question, comes out to 2.5 hrs a day? That’s a lot of questions and a lot of study time devoted to them!
Good Luck!
