Anyone currently studying for this one? I'm trying to compile my resources to start studying for this one, but cannot find a copy of REA's Essentials Money and Banking (they no longer sell it either...so may be it is no longer relevant?). I have looked at the Exam Specific feedback and just want to see if anyone has any recommendations on some books etc.
Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. I just came back from the library and other than the "For Dummies Economics" there is not much there at the moment other than the usual "how to become a millionaire!" which now that I think about it would be nice! ....so I hope other suggestions will be forthcoming from some fellow IC'ers.

Yeah - and they don't acutally have it in stock even tho' it shows 1 available - I tried to order it but was told the website is out of date...! bummer!
Thank you for looking for it - perhaps I'll get lucky somewhere else - have you used this book?
Thanks again,

I bought one of the textbooks that is listed on the fact sheet and used that as my primary study guide with IC as review. M&B is just such a deep topic you really need to immerse yourself in it to really get. How soon would you like to take it?

Thanks very much Old Rusty Pipe! I have just ordered it from the website you gave!
I like the Google Book link also - gives me some pages to read!
In the meantime I also downloaded the indepth description of the Fed Reserve and I can start with that until my book comes.
Thanks again!
