Passed my part 107 today! Here's what I used to study:

I feel like this is a redundant post but regardless, if this can help one person in passing their exam then that's all that matters. I scored 87% and studied for a total of 10 days maybe 15-20 hours in total. My first piece of advice would be to not spend any money on test prep. There's a wealth of information that you can find on youtube and there are plenty of practice tests that you can find online that are 100% free.

(These are my four main resources that helped me pass however there are plenty of other free websites and youtube videos that I used to study that offer excellent information).

I watched two study guide videos on youtube and created note cards:

1. FREE DRONE PILOT FAA Part 107 Study Guide - Katia's Buzz
2. FREE Drone Certification Study Guide: FAA Part 107 sUAS Test - Tony Northrup

Two practice tests that I used religiously:

1. Free FAA Part 107 Drone Pilot Test - King Schools (This one is great because you can choose different sections of the exam that you might need extra help on).
2. FAA Part 107 Test Questions (72 Test Questions Explained) - Johnathan Rupprecht (This one is great because it explains why each answer is correct and why the others might be wrong.)

Aside from those four resources I also tried to listen to any form of content relating to the part 107 exam while I was doing busy work like cleaning, mowing the lawn, going for a run, etc. I'd listen to podcasts, audio practice tests, and other miscellaneous youtube study guide video's.

During the exam, your legend will be your best friend for sectional chart questions. You don't have to study the legend as it will be present during your exam however, it's a good to have an idea of where you need to look on the legend depending on the question.

If you run into any questions that present you problems please STAY CALM lol. Each question offers three multiple choice answers and almost always will one of the answers be just complete nonsense. Read each question thoroughly and use deductive reasoning to find the best possible answer. Worst case scenario, you have a 50% chance at getting it right if you can identify the bs answer.

Finally, just relax and enjoy the process. I listened to podcasts and read old reddit posts of people saying they had to study for 2 months and put in like 100 hours of studying to pass. Respect to those people but that's highly unnecessary. I was a very poor student growing up and I felt as though it only took me about 10 hours of total study time until I was consistently scoring 70% or higher on practice exams. worst case scenario, if you don't pass, you only have to wait 14 days until your next attempt.

If you have any questions or are planning to take the test soon, let me know!
