 Excellent August 23, 2007
This Study Guide was well organized and its presentation does not intimidate. I will definitely continue purchasing relative information to the field written by this author.
Helpful for exam prep... May 12, 2007

This guide was a concise and clear way to review the exam material quickly and throughly. I recommend it as a study tool to prep properly for the exam. I used this along with a few outlines from my classes, as a supplement, and I passed the exam yesterday in the first 90 questions. The exam was easier than the study guide's practice tests...if you do well with the practice exams, you'll be fine on the real deal.

The guide was helpful as a general review. Just took my recertification test and did pass, but was surprized how much the guide left out. Some of the questions/topics on the test were not addressed in the guide. The outline was more helpful if you use it to research and find further information. Good Luck!

I just took NCTRC's exam in Atlanta. I passed. The book helped, but could have been improved with a broader based diagnostic groupings section. The book could also recommed other resources to help prepare the candidate
