I wanted to start this thread purely because I think it could be beneficial to future trolls and forum members out there.
I passed Level I in December of 2015. I took an extended time off from work in the month of May and thought I would try and knock Level II out of the park in 1 month. I have a friend who sacrificed a solid 8 months of his life in preparation for Level II (and passed) and I thought if I could beat the system and sacrifice much less, the constant 1 month suffer would be worth it.
On average I studied anywhere between 10 and 15 hours per day for 34 days. So I hit the 300 hours right? Well, I might have hit the 300 hours, but it ended up being too much to comprehend in that amount of time. I should have focused much more on problems and not really at all about the readings. If I did this, I might have had more success. Some people can do this, but I look at it as, what comes first, the chicken or the egg? You really need to do both.
I read through searching on this forum that Wendy was able to complete Level II in a month. Not saying that it is impossible. I’m just here telling you it probably isn’t the best idea. Because I was unwilling to dedicate a larger amount of time to studying, I failed Band 6 and I’ll be starting my Level II studies in November. Hope this helps at least a few of you out there contemplating the same sh*tty plan
