What they did
1) Download the official JSTQB Foundation Level syllabus PDF and add it to a NotebookLM notebook. Register for Qbook to access its Tesutomo practice questions. 2) Work through questions on your phone. When an explanation is unclear, ask NotebookLM why one option is correct, why another is wrong, or what an unfamiliar syllabus term means. 3) Use the notebook's cited syllabus passages to follow the explanation rather than only memorizing an answer's wording. 4) Ask NotebookLM to output the main points of your accumulated questions and answers as CSV. Paste the result into a spreadsheet to make the remaining weak areas visible for review.
