    Two exam fails on my course, both avoidable. One tip each from people who passed, for the next course.

  2. #2

    Study the manual wording, not your notes. The questions are written from the manual.

  3. #3

    Flashcards for equipment locations, one card per item, every night.

  4. #4

    Say the evacuation commands out loud until your flatmate hates you.

  5. #5

    Sleep. A tired brain fails a resit that a rested brain passes easily.

  6. #6

    Instructor: read the question twice. Half the fails are misread questions, not unknown answers.

  7. #7

    Study group of three, not eight. Eight is a party.

    Week 3 here: write the door sequence on paper from memory every morning before the grooming check.

  9. #9

    Teach a topic to someone else on the course. If you can explain it, you know it.

  10. #10

    Do the practice questions the trainers give you, they are closer to the exam than you think.

  11. #11

    Purser: know the why behind the procedure, the exam questions test understanding not just recall.

  12. #12

    Twenty years and now teaching it: the people who fail are tired, late, or studying notes. Fix those three and you pass.
