Build my study plan

  1. Week 1: Review ADM phase objectives and steps; skim the Series Guides referenced in the syllabus.
  2. Week 2: Practise navigating the electronic Standard quickly, since it is the only reference allowed.
  3. Week 3: Work through scenario practice papers; for each, write why the best and second-best answers differ.
  4. Week 4: Do two timed 90-minute mock exams and aim for 28+ of 40 points.
  5. Week 4: Book the exam; if Foundation is not yet passed, consider the combined OGEA-103.

Exam-day tips

  • Each question scores 5, 3, 1 or 0 points, so the second-best answer still earns credit; eliminate clearly wrong options first.
  • Read the scenario for the phase you are in and the stakeholder's concern; the best answer addresses both.
  • About 11 minutes per question; do not burn time searching the Standard for something the scenario already tells you.
  • The best answer usually follows the ADM in order and involves stakeholders rather than skipping steps.
  • Watch for answers that are technically true but out of scope for the current phase.
