Hi everyone.
Im new here. I am currently studying for the NSCA CPT exam and was wondering what approach did others take when preparing for the exam. I have no background in the field and therefore am learning it all for the first time.
Im feeling like with the approach Im taking it will be a year before Im prepared.

I know there has to be another way and would love some ideas from those who've been where I am.
The mode I was using was to go through the entire chapter and write out the content then study it from my notebook. That just seems silly.

Please help. Im a very intelligent person and grasp info pretty quickly but Ive never taken an independant study course or anything so how to approach this stumps me. All help is appreciated.
All the best,
Jackson
