Read this book twice (pretty much) preparing for my ISA Exam in conjunction with a local class 4 day that took place every Tuesday for a month. The book was given to participants in the class but it can be bought off of ISA’s website.

The book included Bolded words, end of chapter test, illustrations, photos, various charts. glossary and expanded reading suggestions.

Having the book, that class, and my work background / education made me feel pretty prepared for the exam for the most part. I did actual dedicated study (a chapter a day) for 16 days before the test. This was also with listening to the recorded classes that I attended. There’s also an ISA study group that posts questions for members and videos from the Georgia chapter on YouTube.

I would say pay attention to the percentages that each part of the test are made up of and study accordingly.

I took the test today (Sept 1st) and Four to six weeks from now I’ll see if I passed.

Good luck to everyone getting ready for the test!
