This group begins 8 weeks before the exam, allowing gradual progression through the required reading, Learning Guide, and Evidence Based Birth (r) Higher Ed modules.
Did you miss the sign up for the regular study group? Are you suddenly feeling like you need some extra help before the exam? This group begins 3 weeks before the exam. If choosing this option, you should know this is NOT the prefered method of studying due to the amount of material to cover in a short period of time.
