Very poor book. None of the book content was on exam!:
I read this book cover-to-cover. It was so poorly done. It's almost like the author has no understanding of the SCSA exam at all. I took both SCSA exams and neither one had any questions that were related in this book. If you want to pass the exams, I highly recommend that you not read this book! Poor, poor, very poor.
