What students say
“The feature I found most useful was the self generated quizzes where you are able to filter questions by the number you want to complete and by systems. Being able to see statistics on how you are scoring by system showed me where to direct my studies.”
“The Typical Prep questions are more difficult than the ScoreBuilders and Final Frontier questions. Going over the questions and rationale gave me more detailed insight into the information.”
“I’m a visual learner and I like how the book helped me to memorize all the concepts.”
“Having them banked by topic and then filtering them both before and after practice is super useful for studying. The long questions are thorough and challenge your test taking stamina.”
