This book is loaded with valuable information. You'll get the most out of your study time if you follow this approach:
1. Take the assessment test immediately following this introduction. (The answers are at the end of the test, but no peeking!) It's okay if you don't know any of the answers – that's what this book is for. Carefully read over the explanations for any question you get wrong, and make note of the chapters where that material is covered.
2. Study each chapter carefully, making sure you fully understand the information and the exam objectives listed at the beginning of each one. Again, pay extra-close attention to any chapter that includes material covered in questions you missed on the assessment test.
3. Answer all the review questions related to each chapter. Specifically note any questions that confuse you, and study the corresponding sections of the book again. And don't just skim these questions – make sure you understand each answer completely.
4. Test yourself using all the electronic flashcards. This is a brand-new and updated flashcard program to help you prepare for the Key Applications exam, and it is a really great study tool.
Learning every bit of the material in this book is going to require applying yourself with a good measure of discipline. So try to set aside the same time period every day to study, and select a comfortable and quiet place to do so. If you work hard, you will be surprised at how quickly you learn this material. If you follow the steps listed here and study with the review questions, practice exams, and electronic flashcards, you will increase your chances of passing the exam.
