Be organized. If you know the answer, great. But there is so much information to absorb - if you know where the answer is location then you''ll do well. Know how to use the search engines of the various digital resources you are provided.

Pay close attention- study all the class reading Keep your ears open, Great course- is hard and harder if you make it so- damn smart folks teaching and attending. Immerse yourself and learn- take notes, I carried a tape recorder to review at night.

Don't let this course be the first time you looked at a CPOF, the steps of MDMP or the responsibilities of each Warfighter Function (WfF).

I took the course in 2013, so I'm sure much has changed, specifically, the Supply accountability and Maintenance database. See below:

Also, learn the "find" function in the PDF viewer.

Get familiar with the Adobe PDF finder.
There is a LOT of research, if you don't already know regulations or policies, don't assume you do.
Don't get intimidated. It's a lot of work, but it's only as hard as you make it. Do your homework.
