These Flashcards helped me pass the PHR. They have lots of information on them (somewhat contradicting the 'flash' concept), so you will probably end up hilighting on them as you would a book. They do not cover all topics that were on my exam, so I recommend combining them with other study sources.

I was pleased with this product. It is another useful format to use when studying. I found it especially helpful for studying right before I took the PHR exam as the flashcards are something you can carry with you and pull out whenever you have a minute to study. As I am a visual learner, I wish the flashcards would have used a "list or bullet" format which I think would be more helpful in pulling the "meat" or "trigger" words out of the answers for memorization. I think the font could be just a little larger too. All in all, it was a wise purchase for me.

Although the idea is great, I feel like you might be better off creating your own flash cards as you will absorb the material better writing everything down.

I did go through all of these flash cards. I spent a lot of time trying to highlight the important information because some of the cards have entire book excerpts on the back side. I also found myself adding comments to them.

Were they helpful? They were somewhat. I passed the exam but attribute that to spending a lot of time revising the cards to meet the information needs.

Thanks

I didn't like these cards at all. I took one look at them and put them back in the envelope and never took them out again. I did pass the PHR, so I would say these cards were useful. They were not really flash cards. One side is completely full of information. Would have been very difficult to use. They are more like reading a book on index cards. I ended up returning to Pine Island book for full refund. Great Customer service, I would buy from them again.

These flashcards helped me pass the PHR. I'm so grateful, because I only had a limited amount of time to study being that I have two jobs and two kids. It really reinforced what I'd read in my study guides and in the SHRM Learning System. I'd recommend these for anyone who wants to reinforce what they've learned quickly.

I was expecting flashcards to use out of the box. I received sheets of printed matter with perforations to be torn apart.

Disappointing... we've got the sheets, many sheets of soft papers that required a lot of work to cut them so they would be used as flash cards. Information is repetitive...don' see how they can be useful.

I want to recommend these flashcards after taking my PHR certification exam for the first time --and passing! These cards were an excellent source of information for brushing up on material,as well as learning new concepts. And,I'm certain that I wouldn't have had as successful an experience without them.
