RFP Module 1 study plan
RFP Module 1 · Give each week a clear focus.
8 weeks · About 7 hours per week
Module 1 (RFP programme module; content domains not enumerated in source)
Map the full Module 1 syllabus into a one-page topic inventory with every named concept, term, and process listed
Define each core Module 1 term in your own words and flag any you cannot explain without notes
Identify the three heaviest topic clusters by counting distinct concepts and cross-references per cluster
Build a spaced-repetition deck seeded with 40 foundational definition cards
Your checkpoint
A one-page syllabus map plus a 40-card deck covering foundational Module 1 terminology
Module 1 (RFP programme module; content domains not enumerated in source)
Explain the heaviest topic cluster end to end without reference material
Draw a diagram linking the main components of that cluster and label every relationship
Write 15 practice questions on the cluster and answer them cold the next day
Log every wrong answer with the underlying misconception, not just the correct fact
Your checkpoint
A labelled concept diagram and an error log listing at least 10 diagnosed misconceptions
Module 1 (RFP programme module; content domains not enumerated in source)
Work through the second-heaviest cluster and connect it to week 2 material
Compare and contrast paired concepts that are commonly confused
Complete 30 mixed practice items spanning weeks 1-3 and record accuracy by cluster
Re-teach one difficult concept aloud in under three minutes
Your checkpoint
A comparison table of commonly confused concept pairs plus a baseline accuracy score per cluster
Module 1 (RFP programme module; content domains not enumerated in source)
Consolidate weeks 1-3 into a single condensed review sheet
Re-test all previously missed items and confirm each is now answered correctly twice
Identify remaining weak clusters and rank them by risk of exam failure
Set a target score and a study allocation for the second half
Your checkpoint
A condensed review sheet and a mid-point accuracy report showing improvement over the week 3 baseline
Module 1 (RFP programme module; content domains not enumerated in source)
Cover the third and fourth topic clusters at survey depth
Apply concepts to short scenario-based questions rather than recall items
Write your own scenario questions and swap reasoning with a study partner or self-critique
Update the flashcard deck with 30 new cards from the new clusters
Your checkpoint
A set of 10 self-written scenario questions with model answers and rationale
Module 1 (RFP programme module; content domains not enumerated in source)
Run a full timed practice set under exam conditions and score it
Analyse every error by cause: knowledge gap, misreading, or time pressure
Drill the weakest two clusters until accuracy exceeds 80 percent
Reduce average time per question to the exam pace target
Your checkpoint
A timed practice score sheet with an error-cause breakdown and per-question timing data
Module 1 (RFP programme module; content domains not enumerated in source)
Review only flagged and previously missed items across all clusters
Rehearse the condensed review sheet from memory and note gaps
Take a second full timed practice set and compare against week 6
Close any cluster still below the accuracy threshold
Your checkpoint
A second timed practice score with a side-by-side comparison against week 6 showing gains and residual gaps
Module 1 (RFP programme module; content domains not enumerated in source)
Complete a final full-length timed simulation in exam conditions
Review the condensed sheet daily and retire cards you answer instantly
Confirm logistics: exam format, timing, rules, and permitted materials
Rest deliberately in the final 48 hours and avoid new material
Your checkpoint
A final simulation score at or above your week 4 target, plus a one-page exam-day checklist
Milestones
Week 2: Can explain the heaviest cluster from memory and has a diagram covering every component and relationship
Week 4: Mid-point timed practice completed; accuracy recorded per cluster and every missed item diagnosed with a cause
Week 6: Full timed practice passed at target score with per-question timing at or under exam pace
Week 8: Final simulation at or above target and all clusters above the accuracy threshold
