Would like to hear from recent Extra Class upgrades and their methods of
stuy for the exam. I have the a study book and software for the new question
pool. The thought of memorizing 738 answers to questions is very
intimidating to say the least. Would really like advice on study methods.
Tnx
Correct me if I'm wrong but the purpose of studying is
not to memorize 738 answers but to have a good working
knowledge of the material? The number of
questions/answers in the question pool have no bearing
on what you should know... To me that is the sole
purpose of studying.
With that said..
It's called, Know your subject matter.

what i did was buy the ARRL license manual and READ ALL OF IT. Take
the mini tests after each chapter. keep it fresh by also taking the
free exams on QRZ.com
it took me three months but i only missed one question. I am NOT a
super technically minded person. I felt it important
Does anyone know when the use of the old question pool ends and use of the new
one starts?

Many, many thanks to all who responded with advice for
preparing for the Extra exam, especially the VE in Hawaii. I'm a 73 year old
unwashed General(20 years DXing) so it will be a challenge. Sometimes my XYL
insinuates that I'm half brain-dead but what does she know. Tnx again and 73

Well... without trying to come off as a smart-aleck or worse...
Do it the old fashioned way.
Learn the material, not the answers to the questions.
If you know the material -- the theory, the practice, the rules
regulations -- then answering the questions is easy, because you know how to
figure
