Not an effective study guide!,
By
This review is from: Becoming a Professional Counselor: Preparing for Certification and Comprehensive Exams (Counselling in Practice) (Paperback)
Everybody learns differently, so this book might work for you. However, I read the first two chapters, and never opened it again. The NCE exam is a multiple choice exam... this book's fill in the blank and short essay style questions absolutely did not help me prepare for the NCE. The fill in the blank questions were extremely picky at a level of detail not on the actual NCE (I took it April 16.) Yet, the "summaries" offered in each chapter did not cover a large portion of the material covered in my Masters counseling program. I also found it to be a boring read, worse than most textbooks. Buy the Encyclopedia of Counseling instead!

Succinct and Concise Counseling Preparation,
By Grant Me The Serenity... (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Becoming a Professional Counselor: Preparing for Certification and Comprehensive Exams (Counselling in Practice) (Paperback)
If you are planning to become a nationally certified counselor or preparing to to take comprehensive exams in doctoral, specialist, or master's degree programs, Becoming a Professional Counselor is the ideal resource for you. Updated and expanded to offer you the guidance you need to become nationally certified by the Council for the Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) or the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC). Clear and concise, the authors discuss, step by step, topics such as human growth and development; social and cultural foundations; the helping relationship; group dynamics, process, and counseling; appraisal of the individual; research and evaluation; and professional orientation. Each chapter provides an outline, summary, list of important terms and names (which are keyed to the glossary at the end of the book), and practice tests. This precise, insightful manual is an invaluable tool, with its success-proven formula of summarization, testing, and review.

This review is from: Becoming a Professional Counselor: Preparing for Certification and Comprehensive Exams (Counselling in Practice) (Paperback)
I thought this book was just okay. The questions at the end of each section were very helpful, however i noticed a few typos and realized some of the answers were wrong. I only noticed 2 errors, however it makes me wonder how many more there might have been that i did not notice.
