Wasteoftime

Though I haven't taken any exam yet, but currently and from my studying to the material for level 1 December exam, I dont think studying the textbook is too much - It really looks like a lot of stuff but in reality, each reading wouldn't require more than 4 hours at most. (as I said started very recently and finished one book and couple of readings from others).

I would recommend you take own notes while reading them - your own notes are better than any study notes. For each reading I'm doing, I write 3-4 pages of major highlights - most important stuff to be remembered.

Keep Schweser for practice problems, Qbank, and mock exams only

Hope this helps
