    Thank you for your video, it really helped me.
    This is how I passed it first time with 4 days of notice from the exam, from a Friday evening start to test on Tuesday evening (long story):
    1- Looked for videos on how to pass it quick, found this and decided to stick with the Q&A memory path.
    2- Used her link in the description, paid a £1 first month fee for the full access to all their practice tests (45 total)
    3- Did 1 test once without looking anything up, I got 50% first time around. Did it again right away, got 90%. Looked at each incorrect answer on the web if the explanation in the test wasn't enough.
    4- Did the same as above for test 2, then 3, 4 and 5.
    4- At this point I used a list randomiser for numbers 1-5 and did the same 5 tests again in randomised order. At this point I felt confident remembering everything from tests 1 to 5 with at least 85% accuracy.
    5- I did the same 3 steps above for tests from 6 to 10. This time around I noticed I would average slightly higher both at first times (~55-60%) and a solid 85-95% on the second time around and final average.
    6- Then did the same for 11 to 15. Again Slight Improvement.
    7- At this point I spent an hour or so on this so I thought let's do a general one, randomised list of tests 1-15. I was surprised to see that I almost failed 1 of them (got 75%) but the rest stayed relatively solid at 85-95%.
    8- Day 2, to start I did the same 1-15 list again, great 90% average (sleeping on it really does wonders)
    9- I repeated the whole list of steps above (3 to 6) but for tests 16 to 30. Overall big improvement on first 'blind' tests pass, this is because I started making connections to stuff in my head I guess.
    10- At the end of this study session I did a big session of randomised tests 1 to 30 once. I've not failed 1 of them, minimum score 80% and this was due to lack of concentration or misclicks. Average 90%+.
    11- Sunday I did same process as above for tests 31-45 and then again a big randomised order tests 1-45 general practice run, Whole process this day took ~3 hours. I was even passing some first blind tests at this point, and then many 95-100%s on second runs.
    12- Monday after work I did another 1-45 randomised practice run, solid 85% minimums and over 90% averages. At this point I felt confident I would pass the test, so I started looking around the web for other companies offering practice tests, and I noticed very different questions, although I also noticed the answers are generally correct. This gave me a bit of panic but then realised all I had to do is just think a little longer before giving answers.
    13- Tuesday did another 1-45 practice run from this lifeintheuktests .co.uk but also from lifeintheuktestweb .co.uk (this is all free) and most likely a little more outdated, but gave me agility by having to answer slightly odd questions and curve balls.
    14- Passed the test knowing I did at least 19 correct answers, didn't know the answer to 3 of them, 2 of them I wasn't sure about it. Total time spent studying for this ~12 hours.
    Thank you again for the guidance!

    You need to memorise the whole book and that would take you 4-5 weeks minimum. .there are over 1000 questions and any of those could be in the main exam . 5 days not enough time 😊
