This study guide is a complete waste of money, offering nothing but a glorified set of notes that merely paraphrase information available for free on the RACS website. The content is convoluted and poorly organised, adding no real value. Given its exorbitant price, it's baffling that anyone would recommend it. You're much better off investing in question books that offer genuine practice and insight. Avoid this overpriced, derivative guide at all costs.
