How to pass, honestly
There is no shortcut, but there is a method that works. Practice with real exam-style questions instead of flashcards, read the worked explanation on every answer even when you got it right, and drill your weakest content area until it stops being your weakest. On the calculation questions, work the steps by hand rather than memorizing final numbers, because the exam changes the numbers.
