Followed along perfectly with the online course!!

Wife is being Schooled now, and enjoying it, hoping for a better job.

This book met all my expectations and helped me pass my state exams. Its a wealth of information and where I had planned to sell it after I was done with it, I see where it will be a benefit to me to keep it through my career. I felt it was a bit hard to navigate and wished it had been broken down a little differently, but it works and is well written.

I was happy for the very fast shipping! Thank you!
