Hey folks,
I'm not sure how many members will read this, but I thought I should publicize a hack I just did to study for the L2. I loved an app that helped me pass my ARRL Tech Exam, but I couldnt find one for the HPR L2 Exam. Anyway, I found a well regarded Flashcard App called Flashcard Deluxe (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/flashcards-deluxe/id307840670) , and wrote a python script to parse the NAR study guide PDF into their format (See https://orangeorapple.com/).
If you download the app -- it's $4 - and I have no affiliation with the author except he is incredibly helpful (he got me the multi-choice format sorted out in a few hours). Then go [+] Add Deck, then search in Shared Library for "HPR Level 2" and you should see the 97 card deck. Once you've downloaded, its important you change the deck setting to "Multiple Choice" = On and set "Order Answers" = On.
You could also try the Lite version of the app as well if you want - I don't know if you can download from the Shared Library with that, but it's free so can't hurt.
LMK if it's useful. There's one caveat - all the questions have 4 answers apart from one that has 8 - the flashcard upload only supports 4 answers, so I "fudged" it (and made the correct answer D instead of H).
Probably should x-post in Mid Power, but I'll let a moderator decide that before I get my name blackened.
