How to use this 30-day plan

→Commit to 2 hours per day — consistency beats marathon sessions.

→Start each domain by reading the objective description, then immediately move to practice questions.

→Don't skip domains with low weight — exam questions can come from any domain.

→When you finish a domain, score ≥ 80% on its practice questions before moving on.

→In the final 3 days, do full mixed-domain practice tests to simulate real exam conditions.

→Review wrong answers immediately — understanding why you were wrong is more valuable than getting it right.
