The 3 Prong Approach<br />

The Study Plan is broken<br />
down into:<br />
Categories<br />
Each category is<br />
broken up into days<br />
and each day<br />
represents:<br />
2-4<br />
Hour Blocks<br />
For example, Behavioral Sciences is estimated to take 16 hours to complete. Thus, it is broken up<br />
into 5 days with each day averaging between 2 and 4 hours. If you’re looking to begin studying on<br />
Monday, you can comfortably spend Monday through Friday studying in the determined blocks<br />
of time and have the weekend off.<br />
However, because everyone is on a different studying path and time frame, we put this entire<br />
guide together to allow you to customize your study time. Regardless of where you are in relation<br />
to <strong>Step</strong> 1, whether you’re six months out or two, you can accurately gauge how much time it will<br />
take for each category and plan your personal life accordingly. Obviously, the sooner you start,<br />
the more breathing room you’ll have, so don’t procrastinate!<br />
