You know, it really depends on the test and how many tests you've done.
Many tests overlap somewhat. So you might spend weeks on one but need less time on another, if they share some of the same material. Plus, a lot of the simpler tests are basically about memorizing the jargon. So it's not all the difficult to study for. You've just got to get the jargon to "stick." Other tests require you to actually be able to understand and apply the material. Bummer. hilarious Those take longer.
Some of it depends on your experiences and what you're good at. And it also depends on what kind of study habits you have, the amount of study time you have, and how quickly you get a feel for the material.
I think the longest I spent on a test was maybe three weeks. Usually I gave myself about a week. However, I have a flexible schedule and had more available study time than some people.
But hey, the main thing is that you get in the amount of studying that is right for YOU. The beauty of distance learning is that it works for YOU and YOUR needs and YOUR schedule. If someone else goes faster or slower than you, it doesn't matter. Do what you're comfortable with.
