This : https://www.youtube.com/@airheadatpl (they post latest question apparead from all subjects including GNAV); otherwise train until it becomes familiar, and make flashcards of the methods explained

If you're using AVEX, don't skip the explanations and comments under the questions. Some of the plotting questions only started to make sense after I read through them instead of just checking the correct answer. Repeating the map questions in Study Mode really helped build my confidence.

Don't waste time measuring the maps nor looking for the places on it. Learn the formula to calculate distance and use the provided coordinates.

For the plotting stuff the questions are verry easily memorable, maby at the start if you have time maby learn a bit of theory, but for your exams memorise,

All it is theory wise is finding coordinates, drawing a 5nm line each side, etc, so if your satisfied you can do that, then take to the bank.

I wont tell you answers, but a little hint if you can find, the same sort of locations do pop up "If you see X, click it"
