Showerthought: My A&P prep went from 40% to 85% on practice tests in 6 weeks and the fix was ditching the app
I was grinding away with a popular quiz app for my written, averaging around 40% for like two months. Then a guy in my hangar named Reggie, who has been turning wrenches for 22 years, watched me miss three questions in a row on fuel metering and asked why I never crack the actual 8083. Six weeks later I am hitting 85% on the same practice tests and the only change was reading the handbook chapter before touching the quizzes. The app was just teaching me to recognize answer patterns, not the systems. Turns out memorizing which option looks right falls apart when the wording changes even a little. Anyone else find that the old study methods still beat the fancy apps for the written?
