5 tips to pass the S24 exam in 2024:
- Be prepared for application questions
- Work within the box, not outside it. Responses must be true to the appropriate rules, not to the specific experience of a candidate who works within a defined specialization.
- Critical reading skills are a must. Expect two compelling choices, different by a small degree. Take that extra second or two and be sure when making a choice.
- Slow it down. Many questions require two or even three reads. Take a deep breath and make the right call only after careful deliberation. Because of the length and complexity of the questions, it’s good to set some time benchmarks so you avoid getting bogged down in tough questions. You need to keep moving so you don’t run short on time.
- Expect to feel uncertainty about the outcome. Most candidates aren’t sure of passing until they see their score. Feeling off balance during your exam should be expected and isn’t anything to worry about.
