Good morning. My experience with the ICOM HamStudy
app was great. Very affordable and very effective
learning tool that utilizes the same format as the
actual test ! I studied with this tool for a few
months and passed the test easily.
<div>Check on line for a club that conducts tests on
regular basis. </div>
<div>Good luck</div>

<div>The end of that page encourages
people who have studied using the
book you reference to take their
test before the end of June.</div>
<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>In my limited experience, the
question pools don’t radically
change. I used the 1998 edition of
the General license manual to pass
the exam in 2016 and felt like it
was exactly what I had studied. Some
of the questions may be reworded,
and a few new questions may be added
on newer digital modes, but the core
concepts don’t change. So
personally, I would be comfortable
buying the current 12th Edition but
taking the exam in July or later.</div>
<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>I would recommend that you take a
few practice exams online ahead of
time. (Unrelated to the change.)
It’s helpful for knowing where to
focus on studying more, and gives
you confidence in your skills. I
cannot recommend a specific site
because the one I used, run by a ham
on his personal website, now
requires payment?!<br clear="none">

<p>Hi, </p>
<p>I am planning to up grade
my Advanced Class ticket to
Extra and would appreciate
any replies to some
questions.</p>
<p>1. Is the ARRL 12th
editions (2002-2024) study
guide sold by Amazon the
best choice?</p>
<p>2. Is the downloadable
.pdf version ligit?</p>
<p>3. How to arrange for the
exam?</p>
<p>73,</p>
