Study Strategy
I took off work and crammed for a couple of days. I used Jim Becka's workbook. It was very helpful and free right now: http://www.texestechnologyapplicationsin30days.com. I also went through the Region 4 book.
Testing Strategy
I was weakest in the web design section and had to put a little more effort into studying those areas before taking the test. Overall, it was easier than I expected.
