I wanted to see what how many hours per week everyone is averaging? I am shooting for atleast 15, but I may need to bring this up to 20.
 
How do people calculate how much time they study? Do you use a stopwtach or something?
 
Eh I am still around 5 a week, but I have been doing 5-10 since October and finished quant & econ so I still have a bit of time to slowly ramp up the intensity.

I track every second I study using an app called, Toggl. They have a web applicatiion as well. Great for logging how much time I am putting in, and I can keep track of how I am doing towards my weekl/monthly/total goal. You can export reports online as well.
I tried a couple other apps but I find this app the simplest and easiest to use.
 
I don’t count how much time I study. I just go over the material and attempt practice questions until I can comfortably move on.
 
I don’t calculate the time, but I calculate targets measured by chapter read and number of questions solved. We know there are 56 readings, more than 5,000 exercises available and mocks, so I track my path to those objectives.
Tracking number of hours is a vague measure because not all hours are the same quality and the target is not 300 hours, but what I described above.
 
I created a simple spreadsheet to track my Level I study progress and still use it for Level II. The hours are not exact as I tend to round up or down and don’t account for breaks, but I tend to underestimate my hours. I also use it to keep track of average hours per day to get an estimate of total study hours by completion.
That said, I’m doing 15 hours a week, and will probably push that to 20 per week in a couple of months. This is my second attempt (failed Band 9 in June) and I will say it’s been much harder to stay motivated this time. My study tracker helps with that somewhat.
 
5-10 hours most weeks (plus what I spend on here). I may get above 10 for few weeks, but not by much. If I need to take the 3 or 5 day live Wiley course at the end I will.
 
Using a percentage score on EOC, LOC etc. is just a vague as logging hours, but at least with hours, I can compare myself to my overall weekly/monthly/total goal.
 
I’m doing approx 12 hours a week. Worked well for level 1, but anticipate I may have to do a little more for level 2 .
4-5 hours on mon-thurs
3-4 on sat
3-4 on sun
Taking the last 2 weeks off so will do 6-7 hours per day then with a couple of days off.
Should hit 300, hopefully its enough
