I'm finding myself in a bit of a quandary...I'm going to the board in July and While I do have the MOI for the seemingly endless board topics, I'm not sure as to how to approach studying all this material.
I purchased the" MSG Skinner's Winning The Board" book and I also have "The Board Master Fully Loaded" pocket study guide..and I've also went as far as to write out over a hundred flash cards as study tools with FMs and ARs compliments of armystudyguide.com
My concern is that these three different sources of material have three different answers on some of the same questions...how should I go about studying for this...any tips? Did anyone get hammered with the long answer questions? How many questions does each board member ask? Any advice is appreciated

You are on the right track!
Study doctrine as well as the "off-the-shelf" study guides.....the ADP's and ADRP's are very easy to read and beneficial! Finally, know your Chain of Command & NCO Support Chanel & go to the mock boards, do not make excuses GO!

Talk with someone that was just boarded by the same unit and ask them what kind of stuff was asked. Some boards deal with unit equipment/weapons, some deal with hypotheticals (what would you do in THIS situation), and some deal with general military knowledge stuff (size/material of earrings, TIS/TIG to promote for XX paygrade).

Find an NCO or section leader to study with you and look over your uniforms. Also have someone go over drill movements so you don't look like a fool in front of your SgtMaj.
