A few Caveats This will not ensure that you'll pass the test.
Before beginning to study, go online and find out when the application will open.
This entire study plan revolves around the application opening on Week 8.
Unfortunatly there just is not that much information available about the SJT.
I highly recommend you read this entire excel book beforeyou start on it.
