Sille for this exam i would highly recommend the REA book! Read it from front to cover and know the definitions. I ready it 2wice and took the practice tests which i found extremely helpful! Since they explain y each wrong answer is wrong. Definitely review your wrong answers as they have a better chance of being on the actual exam then the actual question. I just passed principles of marketing yesterday using just the REA books! So I'm gonna stick with REA until they do me wrong! Principles of Managment is next!! I'm gonna keep the motivation going and sticking with REA study guides! Good luck! If u have any other questions feel free to message me!
