PPI gave me an iTunes promo code that expires March 31st, 2010. So let me keep it quick and simple. This is a brief contest. Next Tuesday night, I’ll randomly choose a winner and post it on Wednesday. Leave a comment of any kind to this post with an email that you check, if you would like a chance at winning this code!

The promotion code is for a free ARE in a Flash: Rapid Review of Key Topics (iTunes link). Essentially if you are studying for the architectural registration exam and would like the convenience of using your iPhone or iPod Touch, then this is for you. I just downloaded mine to my iPod Touch.

I am happy to see PPI got gWhiz involved in building this flashcard app. I’m currently using the free “gFlash+ Flashcards & Tests” app by gWhiz, and I’m happy with that program. Now I’ve got an application whose content and features, I hope has been tweaked by both companies. I’m excited to try out the program and happy to be able to provide someone else with another Architect Registration Exam resource. Please leave a comment if you would like to win this program.

(Make sure to use a valid email. I will expect a receipt response within two days from you, or I will forward the code to someone else. If they use it before you, tough. I don’t want this code going to waste.)

(If you haven’t noticed, few people leave comments around here. So chances of winning are very good!)

I’ve mentioned this. What happens when you get busy at work. After a really busy day, sometimes you don’t want to study. You just want a break. With all the activity from the day’s work you don’t want to force your mind to switch over for more.

What does it take for you to switch over? A cup of coffee? A re-run of The Office? A polite reminder from your significant other? See if you can find out what it is. The architectural registration exam (for most) is a longterm excersize, and there will be days when you need to find the extra effort to switch over for more extra mental activity after work.

Some of you have time. Some of you make time. Some of you are efficient with your time. I’m somewhere in between. Flashcards for the architectural registration exam are a great way to make study time and be efficient with time. Especially for those using mass transportation. Take 40 or 60 cards on the train or bus to and from work and use that 20 or 60 minute ride as study time.

PPI asked me if I was interested in their flashcard program for the iphone / ipod Touch. I said yes and purchased an ipod Touch. I should get the download code this week. I also asked for a second download code to give away to a reader. If I get one, look out for something like the Win A Tool sweepstakes, I held back in December/January.
