No strategies.. You just have to do like what you have done before. And that is to study hard. It's not impossibly hard but still it is a short answer type of exam so you have to really know it. Study the sample questions and the questions posted in this thread. It will help. And remember you only need to get half of them right. That is highly attainable.
And yes, they will inform you about a month or earlier about the specifics of the examination date.
Update: I just received the letter. And I passed. Thanks to the ONE.
