1.0 out of 5 stars Extremely Outdated, Buyers Beware!, October 12, 2005
This review is from: Study Guide for the Florida Law Enforcement Officer's Certification Examination (Paperback)
This book covers all areas that one would expect to be on the state exam....five years ago. Now, in 2005, I recently took the state exam and questions in this book are nothing like what is on the real deal. Reason being, is the book is traditional based, whereas you will be taking a CMS based test. The two are completely different and this book should NOT be relied on to accuratly portray the CMS based testing. Don't waste your money, find an alternate and more accurate study material.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for practice; doesn't replace studying, February 4, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Study Guide for the Florida Law Enforcement Officer's Certification Examination (Paperback)
Make sure you get a copy with UPDATES. Otherwise you might get outdated information. Don't substitute this review guide for hard study for the exam. Practice the excellent sample questions as many times as you can prior to the test. Study and test-taking tips are good. Discussion of the format of the exam is good. Needs to be updated re: App. and FDLE info via Internet.

This review is from: Study Guide for the Florida Law Enforcement Officer's Certification Examination (Paperback)
I believe they have since changed the State Exam process/test since I took it back in 2001, but this guide certainly helped me. It asked far more and far harder questions than I needed to prepare for, thus making the exam so easy that I thought I failed it. I simply couldn't understand how I was able to complete the exam in the short amount of time that I used and couldn't believe the questions simply were not difficult. Not even a little bit.
