Welcome to the group, Mohamed! You are going to do fantastic on your CMA exam. In addition to the great advice by @Judi Aldridge, I found quite a few helpful videos on YouTube. I identified topics I felt unclear on, then looked up videos about those. Good luck, and we look forward to your participation in the group.

Hi @Mohamed Eid

I utilized every free resource out there. I downloaded sample free Qs, sample exams. I also downloaded many versions of different free softwares and used the trial periods. I downloaded free outdated PDF books of questions and study material. I also got a ton for free on YouTube. I listened and rewrote the things I got wrong in note pads, then I would reread the note pads. 

@Jennifer Pinder gave some good advice - I second that!

I think I may have taken ~2,000+ test questions, did maybe a dozen practice exams, and utilized 6 notepads.

Cost - $free$

Cant wait to cross paths.

I live in SC, am a CFO, CPA, CMA, I am part of a startup, I also engage on boards and committees and groups in and outside of IMA.

I have a dog and we hang out outside and take in the greenery and air . . .

Thank you for sharing your approach!
It's really motivating to see how you maximized free resources and built your own study system. I like your idea of using notepads to review mistakes - I'll definitely try that. I appreciate the inspiration and hope to follow a similar path toward passing the CMA exam!
