    Ong – I didnt make notes. As this was my third sitting, i had to review how i was studying and change. I used the Kaplan text book and went through the Test Yourself questions within the chapters, watched OT lecture videos to understand the basics. I focused on the exam questions as this is where you will really develop your understanding. I spent 3 weeks going through the text book and then rest of the time just on the exam kit. Also read the examiners notes. Good Luck 🙂

    I prefer Kaplan to BPP when studying for exams. With BPP I found the text books wordy and overwhelming which left me confused about what I had read. I find Kaplan seems to simplify the concepts and for APM it had plenty of exam styled questions (20 marks) throughout the text book which helped me get comfortable with exam style questions and answers before attempting the exam kit.
