Heya folks...I was just wondering what you guys would suggest, and maybe give me tips about becoming a professor and a good way to pass the professor exam? I understand rulings and all that, but it takes me a bit of time to figure out, what's a good suggestion before trying the professor exam? I took it before but my internet got disconnected around question 28. Also I've done events for other games like UFS and I've ran official Beyblade tournaments before.
 
Off topic: I can see that someone like "Lucky Star"
On topic: It's done that to be before. I had to wait for a month before that I could do the test again....& when I did, I passed with flying colors.
 
Off topic: Yeah, I like the characters but the show is kinda boring. XD the picture was an edit my friend made of my Entei Gijinka OC named Mandy.
On Topic: I just took the test but handed it in one minute late, which is an auto-failure. I got 90% too D:
 
One minute late, that sucks. I know next year when I turn 18 I plan on taking the test. How long do you have to wait to retest again?
 
@OP: There really isn't a good strategy for studying except to study the questions you've had in the past. I think you can select all -> copy. The problem is that the test isn't about important rulings, its about tricking you with erattad cards and asking questions about cards that haven't existed for quite some time. Its best if you just memorize the right answers, even when those answers are actually wrong. As a side note, the professor test is basically the only test I haven't passed on the first try. And I'm on my second engineering degree :]

Also, in your case, set an alarm. I always finished early.
 
I think the best way to go about it is the same way you should go about taking any test. Make sure you are well rested and can think straight. Dont waste time on questions you are having trouble with. Just go on to the next one and come back to it later. The questions that take the most time are at the beginning and you will get easier more straight forward questions towards the end. I think you get somewhere around 1min 15sec per question and its really easy to get caught up in one since they ask you about the weirdest situations..

Wow. That's a pretty poor assessment of the Prof. Program. Those Errata are available in the Compendium, and the test is not about the cards, per se, but the interactions behind the rulings.

Read through the compendium, make sure you understand why the cards interact the way they do. i think the most important question you need to ask yourself before you become a professor is: why? why do you want to become a professor? if there are no available judge positions in your area, and you don't intend to start a league, you won't be able to keep your professorship active and you'll just get booted out.
 
I'm probably just going to take it one time to see what its like, then try and get ready for the re-take.
 
^Our head judge was inactive at our league, so we needed some judges to take over.

I just think that since there are NO OP unrestricted events, that you should be tested over modified cards. I'm up to date on ruling that matter, but not on rulings for ancient EX stuff.

My main beef with the test is wrong questions. I single-handedly found and changed 3 blatantly wrong questions. Luckily I was acquainted with someone on Pojo that was able to fix them. If you're going to test me over something, at least make the questions fair!!

As far as Errata's I'd say its a trick question if they show me card text and I have to look up the card in a different source to find out if it has been erratad. granted the card I'm referring to is unown G, which everyone should be familar with, but still.
