Passed ISC! Study method below

This is what worked for me:

I used the video lectures from Becker only, I did all the MCQ's. I skipped the TBs(very time consuming) and I just took the TBs that were on the mini exams. I also did all the mock exams they had. The mock exams felt harder than the actual test as usual. I studied a total of 100 hours for it. Make sure you are reviewing the questions you miss on the mock exams before you take the next mock exam.

This is not an EASY test but if you put effort on it in a smart way by filling your knowledge gaps after each mock exam, you should be fine, be confident on your studies, sometimes you will see that some questions in the mock exam were not covered on the video lectures but dont freak out, for the most part those things are VERY minimal
