Just signed up on the site, and I'm trying to find the section for study guides, all I can find are flash cards??? Please someone tell me there is more to this site than flash cards

The flash cards are it, other than this forum (including the fabulous exam feedback section, which only paying members can access). Study guides are pretty easy to find though I'm the sort who creates that as part of studying, so I don't have links for you, sorry.

Ditto. Writing your own study guide cements the material in your head. But the Specific Feedback forum gives you the dirt on what is on the test as well as tells you what study resources (books, websites, audio/video lectures, etc) are the best/most appropriate.
A lot of people hear about this idea and think "wow I can study for a few hours and *poof* pass all my tests" but that is NOT the case. You still have to learn just as much as someone who sits in a seat for three months, but you can do it on your own terms and without a lot of the extra hassle. But you still have to provide the mental elbow grease to get it done.

Yeah I'm pretty sure I've run into a couple that thought that.
I am NOT saying the OP here thinks that, BTW, just making a general observation.
