I don't agree. I see what you're saying, and I can also see the difference you are trying to highlight between someone who simply memorizes answers versus someone who looks over the answer, figures out why they didn't get there, and digs deeper to arrive at the right answer on their own.

But that's not how exams work. Your studying methodology is solid, and it is exactly what practice exams are for. Not the real exam, not the real questions.

If in my university degree during my studying for my end of term exams I had the option to look at my exam questions and answers, I'd have finished with a 4.0 GPA. But of course is cheating. By looking at my perfect exam scores you'd assume I had excellent depth of knowledge in the subject, when in reality I only had depth in every question due to me seeing and researching questions beforehand.

I have friends that have finished with a near perfect 4.0 in some very challenging programs, and their work ethic and dedication to get there was second to none. Cheating my way there would have devalued their efforts, and doesn't do me much good, as I'd be nowhere near as knowledgeable as them.

I'm not trying to sound negative or mean, but what you're doing is effectively negating the need to have a well rounded understanding of all blueprint topics -- it's cheating by definition, it's against rule #2 here in this sub, and if the certification body gets a report of it and can validate it, you'll lose all of your certifications.
