I thought ethics was very difficult for Level 1. I felt I was guessing between two choices far more than I felt comfortable with.
In Ethics, I tried to mark the choice which was coming as first thought to me after eliminating the ones which were never looking right. Ofcourse, I did some amount of rethinking on those where two choices were screaming that “…its me…its me” but refrained myself to alter my answer (except one in AM session and one in PM, and I remember vaguely that it was only one Ethics question, other one was from some different topic).

Was really good to have a weekly online program after reading the material as it helped to pick up on any points that were unclear or that I may have missed. Not trying to sound like I’m pushing the Schweser products, just saying they really helped me through on my first attempt at Level 1.
