Already have the ASM manual, and have started reading the first chapter.

Will probably read as much as I can this month and take some light notes, then take December off to knock out my last two VEEs and start studying hardcore in January.

Anyone else have a plan yet?

...finally. I was looking for a May12 C thread, but couldn't find one. I didn't want to start one, because there is a Feb12 exam, but it's here, so I'll join.

...I'm using TIA as well. I haven't ordered it yet, because I'm waiting for an answer on how long we have access to it, since there is an exam in February. They normally will extend access to a second sitting, if needed. ...I'm not sure how they will handle it in this situation. I've emailed them, and I'm waiting for a response.

Access is 6 months from purchase, I asked last week

ETA: Although I'm not sure how the fail/second sitting works since you could take two sittings in 6 months

you get it for 6 months, if you need it for longer, you can request and get another 6 months. So essentially, you have access for 1 year.
