    I used the arrl study guide for my tech and scored a 100.
    Struggled some with general, so tried ham radio prep after awhile and passed just missing 2.
    I knew extra was going to a challenge, so I went 100% with ham radio prep, including purchasing the audio book to listen to while commuting.
    I have a very weak background in math, so also got Michael burnettes "fast track extra class math" workbook.
    Passed extra this past week.

      Nice work! Congratulations on your Extra! That's the next step for me, hopefully soon after the new year!

    It’s good to see an impartial HamRadioPrep review that isn’t an ad. How does it compare to other free and paid test prep and learning tools like Hamstudy, ARRL books and materials, HRCC’s crash course, Gordon West books, KB6NU’s No-Nonsense guides etc.?
    Edit: I should have finished watching this video before writing this comment 🙃

    I like it so far. Already had my general. Using it for the extra. Nice review

    There was nothing like this when I was studying for my exams. I am a visual and hands-on learner, I struggle with just staring at words on a page.

    I used ham radio prep for my tech general and extra class licenses! Got my extra within a little over a year after gettting my technician class license!

    Good thorough & informative review! I've been looking for a product like this for a while, and your review was very helpful in making my purchase decision on the product! Thank you!

    I love Ham Radio Prep. I passed my technician test easily, but I’m having the reverse problem you’re having. I signed up on my laptop using my Facebook login, but now I can’t sign up on my phone

      That's interesting. I would definitely reach out to their support, they're very responsive.
      Thanks for watching, 73!

    These are the kinds of review videos that should be suggested first. Unpaid honest information sharing. 🤘 thank you sir I'm trying to navigate my way through this stuff.

    This is one of the best reviews for something like an online course that I'eve ever seen- outstanding job! You answered the questions I had and provided sufficient information for me to make a purchase decision. Thank you for taking the time to prepare and publish your thorough review & honest opinion of Ham Radio Prep.

    Thank you. I just purchased Baofeng UV-5R to use when needed. Ham Radio Prep has a sale going now in the amount of $79.. Thank you for this video. I will give it a shot. Blessings!

    The funny thing and imo scummy tactic is, those prices have always been their prices. Its a trick to make you think it is one sale. I hate that type of marketing and cannot support that type of thing.

    Our teacher told us to study the correct ANSWER ONLY. This way, no matter what questions you get asked, you will know the answer.

      There are lots of effective ways to study. I would recommend using the method that you think will work best for you.
      I have used the method you mentioned while doing practice questions as well, it does work!
      Thanks for watching, 73!
