A Few Tips to Help you Pass:

At the end of the day, you're the person who will ultimately pass or fail. Much of what determines this will be based on how much preparation you do, and how you apply what you have learned. There are some small things that will help you though. When you are studying and writing this exam, bear the following tips in mind.

Allow yourself enough time to study

If you're an accomplished eMarketing genius, by all means, attempt the exam without picking up a book. For the rest of us though, this isn't the best idea. We recommend spending between 1 – 1.5 hours on each chapter of the book and giving yourself approximately 3 hours to peruse other recommended resources.

Get comfortable with the information at hand

It's important that you feel confident and the best way to do this is to know the basics back to front, upside down and inside out. This will ensure that you can answer the majority of the questions confidently and with haste, leaving yourself time to go back and think about the ones you couldn't answer immediately.

Answer the questions you know the answers to first

One of the first rules of exam writing is to go back to the answers you don't know or weren't sure of. This will save you time (a scarce commodity in this test) and will grow your confidence. It will reassure you of how you much you do know and help to keep you calm about what you don't.

Choose your exam writing environment carefully

Much of exam success and failure is dependent on how comfortable and confident you feel when you finally sit down to write. Generally, you require a quiet space without distractions, a reliable internet connection, resources on hand and maybe something to snack on to keep your energy levels up. If you also need a stuffed panda on your desk for inspiration, no one's judging you... The bottom line – make sure you're comfortable.
