Welcome! Micro was also my first exam through EC, I took it last month. The content guide is very valuable. I printed it out, and went through each topic and made sure I understood it, and also made notes on the pages. I enjoyed reading Demystified, but it didn't seem to follow the content guide. I had purchased a cheap 'Micro bundle' on Ebay, a College Network Micro binder, and a few other micro books. I also had purchased the text by Tortora, which is an amazing book that I will keep. It seemed that the College Network binder followed the content guide pretty closely. I have also heard the same about SG101, but I didn't have that resource. I've heard good things also about Vango notes. I did use flashcard exchange, too, and it was a good resource.

Bottom line, I hit it pretty hard for about a month... oh, and be SURE to get the practice exams... they are worth every penny! Likely, I overstudied, but I just can't help myself!! I got an 'A'! :)

GOOD LUCK!!!

I am studying for the same exam and it is a lot. I am feeling like I am not retaining it at all. I am using a micro txt book, vangonotes, and sg101....I plan on taking this exam in a few weeks and I also plan on purchasing the practice exams. It is A LOT!!! A lot of reading.....I have also been making my own flashcards as I go....I keep hearing that the exam isn't that bad.....I am doing a&p next then repro.
