5.0 out of 5 stars Great, September 6, 2009
This review is from: Court Officer Exam (Barron's Court Officer Exam) (Paperback)
I am training my fiancée to take the NYS Court Officer Exam in October and this is a superb manual. The layout and instructions are great. The advice section at the begining is also great. The best part is that the author is a former officer from New York, so he is familiar with the NYS Exams, and the book more focuses on the NYS exam which other prep book do not.
