About a month ago, I took my second professor exam, and failed...
ever since then, I've been studying a lot about the TCG, and learning a lot about it.

I studied off of my incorrect answers, and have learned about some rulings that I didn't know about, here and there.

Now, I feel confident, and think that i might pass my professor exam this time.

...but, I know that there are professors at pokebeach, and was wondering if they could give me any advice, so i can be fully prepared for taking the professor exam...

Any advice?
 
What I suggest to you is that you read the Compendium in its entirety. Familiarize yourself with the rulings (even the old ones!) so that nothing unusual will jump out at you. As you probably know, this constitutes half the quiz.
Links:
http://compendium.pokegym.net/compendium-lvx.html (The actual Compendium)
http://compendium.pokegym.net/ (The Compendium main page)

Then, go to the Go-Pokemon site and read up on all the resources for tournament judges and TOs. I didn't do it for my exam (and I got a 33/40 first try, phew), but knowing about it now is a great boon. That's the section of the test I bombed on.
Here is the URL for you. http://go-pokemon.com/op/tournaments/rulesandresources.html

Then, once you've finished the test, as with all other tests, before you submit it, double-check over all your answers to make sure you didn't mess up, giving about 5 seconds or so to every question. You don't want to miss a point just because of a careless mistake!

Above all, don't panic. Give yourself the full 45 minutes of time you'll need. Come fed and with a clear mind, and good luck!
 
Thanks for the advice.
I just realized yesterday, that since go-pokemon has been updating too often, it might be a while before i get a chance to take the exam =P
But, I'll be studying often until then
 
Keep in mind they don't just ask about the modified format. They like to ask about unlimited as well.
