optimal study for CA1
In my opinion there is a danger with CA1 of getting preoccupied with absorbing the overwhelming volume of material, but I think the main reason people fail is not a lack of knowledge, but a failure to adapt to the completely different style of exam, and completely differernt approach needed here.
The key for CA1 is learning to interpret the exam questions, and practicing generating the breadth of of ideas needed for this subject, which is such a contrast to the CTs.
For me the tutorials really helped me get my head around this, and obviously lots of exam question practice is especially important. I didn't use ASSET myself, but i expect that would be helpful here. Just don't leave it until the last couple of weeks before looking at past papers!
