Start with Data concepts and environments because it frames the rest of the exam. Then move through the study plan and use the cheat sheet to convert missed questions into decision rules.
The highest-risk trap is: Tool-first answers. The better move is: Start from question, data type, quality, and audience.
Use practice questions after a focused read, not before any context. For every miss, write the tested lane, the constraint, the correct rule, and why each distractor failed.
