Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - HELPFUL
MY DAUGHTER FOUND THIS VERY HELPFUL. WE HAVE YET TO SEE THE RESULTS OF THE TEST (TEST TAKEN 6/21/08 RESULTS POSTED 7/23/08), BUT SHE SAID THE TEST WASN'T AS LONG AS THE TESTS IN THE BOOK AND SHE WAS ABLE TO USE WHAT SHE STUDIED IN THE BOOK TO COMPLETE THE ACTUAL TEST. I GUESS THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS, IT WAS USEFUL, JUST WHAT WE WANTED. SHE THINKS SHE PASSED SO WE NOW JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This is great!
My daughter is using this book to prepare for her CHSPE. It is well laid out and easy to follow. It presents itself in steps and makes going through the book a simple process of thirty days. If she passes it will have been worth much more than we paid for it!
