Oh no as the title suggests, the exam is the only goal.

Go back to Khan ST3, with Limitless / Quantum Limitless.
Your progress on ST4 will not be lost, just Paused.
You simply don’t have time to deal with any reconciliation now. So the logical thing is to get a smooth boosted engine of productivity with Khan ST3, then once you pass the exam, get to full focus on ST4.

I once asked @Fire
You should follow your gut feeling
Also keep in mind, that I didn’t have so much time as you have. My reason to only listen to st4 was first and foremost because of the short amount of time I had. I never listened to st3.

I did something similar when I was studying to upgrade my amateur radio license here in the US.
I held a “Technician” level license until May of this year (when I took the exam).
In the couple months leading up to the exam, I took practice exams for the next higher up level called “General”. The exam for General is 35 questions total. This is out of a pool of 454 possible questions.
The questions are separated into different topics called “Elements.” When you get a question wrong on the practice exam, it tells you which element to study on regarding that question.
Being as I am a fan of the 80/20 rule, I decided to apply 80/20 to my study habits on this exam.
So I built a spreadsheet (Of COURSE I did 
) where I would take the practice exam 10 times. After each practice exam, I’d put the list of elements I need to study into the sheet.
The spreadsheet would analyze the list I put in and after 10 exams, I’d know which elements I missed out on most often across those 10 exams, and would study just the “top 20%” and then go back and retake 10 practice exams the next day.
Within a week or two of that, I was passing the practice exams 90%-95% of the time.
There is yet another level BEYOND General called “Extra”. After I got where I was passing the General practice exams, I switched and applied this approach to the Extra practice exams. Where General requires 26 out of 35 correct, Extra is tougher. Required 35 out of 50 from a MUCH larger pool of questions.
When exam time came in May of this year, I took General and passed (missing only 3 questions). Then I took Extra (a benefit there is since I paid for General exam already, and I passed, they allow me to take Extra exam for no extra fee or cost). I took Extra also, missing only 3 questions.
Sorry for the long-arse post on this. I just resonated with what @friday was saying about having a targeted study routine. Plus, 80/20 rules!

It’s actually a lot easier than my post makes it out to be. Especially since 80/20 is involved. It’s just a matter of looking for those little tiny things we can do to push the needle the farthest with the least effort

There’s just 75 days left for the exam.
Honestly the last 15 days have been the most productive days of my life.
I have been consistently having 10-12 90 min sessions with 10 min break inbetween. I have modified my routine during the breaks to minimize distractions completely.
During breaks I do pullups and then meditate while listening to b.l once. I have noticed The more B.l I listen to, the more is my brain able to pull up info much faster. I also feel the effects have become more lasting since I have been following the routine periodically.
I am going through the syllabus in 4x speed than how used to before!

Currently this is the routine I have been running:
my work is divided into 12 90-minute sessions. So I encorporate 2 subs in between a single sessions
In the First 3 session, I play Spartan and limitless(or limitless x depending what I am learning)
From the 4th session till the 10th session I switch to khan st3(and limitless)
10th to 12th I go back to spartan.
I listen to beyond limitless eighter after every alternate session or whenever I feel like I need more brain power.
So overall
5 loops of spartan
7loops of khan ST3
12loops of limitless

what is the difference?

Limitless x greatly enhances my memory while v2 boosts my brain power. If I am studying a topic which requires less intelligence and more facts and algorithms(like chemistry), I go for X.

Sounds good thank you

I assume you are listening everything ultrasonic? If so have you ever tried masked? Why you chose ST3 over ST4? I think St4 has limitless in

Really interesting, @Sarshet. How is this stack working for you? I mean, in terms of results.
