@medo_omar not sure if I'm doing something wrong but when I click the link you provided it takes me to a page which has links which once clicked on opens up pdf's showing correct and incorrect answers for simulations/etc.

Do you have a list of the updates or a place where I can locate them?

With the affordability if low cost materials out there, there's no good reason to do this.

An NTS is $200+ so get some updated materials and study 🙂

It's not fair to everyone else to ask them to spend time piecing together updates when it's already been done for you in the form of affordable materials. Ninja, Gleim, Wiley … Pick one 🙂

You probably should buy the Ninja audio&mcq, they are inexpensive and will help you with updates.

@Sumni, is money a real issue….I will donate the section you are currently studying of ninja. It is too much work trying to hustle updates, and questions. Ninja is updated and adaptive so as you do questions you can see where you need help.

It begins with a 75
