I use Studygroup 101 notes and all of there practice test and quizzes with rationales. I use some of the older edition of the recommended text for EC but I love Studygroup 101 they break the material down makes it easier to digest all the info. I study for a few weeks 2-4 depending on if I feel I am ready. I try not to overstudy. I test while the info is still fresh. Good Luck to you :) Good Luck to you !ThanksSupermommy23

Congrats winter!! I have LS 3 left to take too in about 2 weeks. It's a LOT of info---so is LS2, lots pf psych on that one. I'm not sure I could have taken both in one month! Good luck on the next 2 exams I' am hoping to take FCCA in April as well:D

Just be careful with SG101 on LS2 and LS3. The practice exams are excellent but Study Guide 101 seemed to miss a lot. I passed LS2 on the first try but had to retake LS3, which I passed with a B. The Saunders Guide and Practice Exams are excellent. Congrats on getting this far. I have one more test, Chronicity (retake) which I am taking this week. Hoping my FCCA is sent out before months end and I will be ready and scheduled for the CPNE in June. I want this to be done and over with already!!!!! Good luck on your next exam, hoping we both are testing for CPNE in June.
