Really it wasn’t hard, I listened to an audio book twice and started taking practice exams every night before bed after the first time I listened to the audio book… once I was consistently scoring 90%, I had just looked at the option of doing the online test yesterday, found a group of testers on the arrl website that just need 10 minutes of notice and did it through a zoom call. I was going to wait till the next in person testing within 50 miles which was February, but just didn’t want to wait any longer.

Hamstudy.org is a straight-up cheat code for getting your ham license. They built the testing application, too, so it all looks familiar when you test. They're also the same folks who make the Signal Stick antenna.
