    Like do you read the study texts and then attempt questions to see if you understand?
    Or do you take notes as you read for the sake of review?
    Or do you simply watch Open Tuition and then attempt questions?

    I am a little confused about what approach to use.
    If I try to use the study texts only it is very lengthy and takes me a lot of time to go through because of work (I can sneak in about 2hrs max of study time per day) so I was hoping someone could help me out.

    I would advise you to use Opentuition as the basic structural framework for your learning. In addition you could flick through study texts if you have them but it’s more important to make use of practice and revision kit. I would follow lecture notes and lectures in the main on Opentuition. It is easy to get bogged down using study texts particularly if trying to memorise significant details. Opentuition is concise but thorough. The practice and revision kit practice should keep you exam focussed. Hope this helps.
