I just recently purchased the 2nd edition from someone since I couldn't get the new one right now. I just wanted to ask how did you guys study ? Did you go through each section and just reviewed the rationales after reading the introduction ? Also would it be wise for me to purchase the online resource from evolve to help me with the book ? 0 Likes

Girlygirl23 Aug 27, 2014 I would reccommend doing the first section of the book and completing the case study section only if you have time. This is a VERY GOOD resource to prepare from considering that management of care is a large portion of the exam. I did the questions and read every rationale. Im not exactly sure what evolve resources you mean but its probably a waste of money. 0 Likes

I purchased the e-version on Evolve, for 20 or 23 dollars (not sure) and practice questions . It gives you how many % you got it right, what u missed . Just read the rationales after 0 Likes
