I've use studygroup101 so far for 3 exams (1,3, and 4) and I've passed all three exams only using their material.

Hi! I did the required readings, reviewed the content guide and did the practice exams for Health/Saftey and I got an A. Many feel that exam was easy, I just felt it followed the content guide very well. For Chronicity I did the readings, and also had Studygroup101. I didn't feel the practice exams SG101 provided were really in the style of excelsiors, and also found some of their content matter rather "off" or outdated. They provide an abundance of info, I just felt my time was better focused on theEC content guide. Excelsior's practice exams are fantastic aides. I wish I didn't have to purchase them, as I am paying as I go and it is just another expense, but they really help you target your weak areas. For my own personal learning, I need to read all of the material to make sure I have a firm grasp on all content. Good luck!
