CRTP prep after lab expired — best free AD labs + anyone testing soon

Hi all. I am taking CRTP Sept 26, lab expired long ago, can't afford another lab rn. I'm thinking of setting up on GOAD + my own notes.

1. Did GOAD translate well to the exam? Any gaps to watch?

2. Best free/ economical AD labs besides GOAD (HTB/THM)?

Also keen to find a study buddy prepping around the same time.
