Books and Study Guides...

by kelbund » Tue Jan 13, 2009 6:15 am
Some of the test prep software and books are several hundred dollars

I took a page from Good Will Hunting - You could get all the stuff for about $1.50 in late charges from your local public library.

I hope this helps some people save some coin.

Cheers

HAHA! Nice tip - you're right though you can get a lot of materials from the library if you want to save some money.

Agreed, in a way.

I would recommend that everyone buy a copy of the OG. You'll be using it so much, it will get beat up, you may want to write in it (or the one in the library may already have writing in it), etc. It's worth the investment - only $22 on Amazon. In fact, the whole set of the three OGs is only $44, with free shipping! :)
