Once you've finished reading this book, set aside some time to do a thorough review. You might want to return to the book several times and make use of all the methods it offers for reviewing the material. The following are some suggested methods of review.
Re-read all the Two-Minute Drills, or have someone quiz you. You also can use the drills as a way to do a quick cram before the exam. You might want to take some 3×5 index cards and write Two-Minute Drill material on them to create flash cards.
Re-read all the Exam Watch notes. Remember that these notes are written by authors who have taken the exam and passed. They know what you should expect—and what you should be on the lookout for.
Retake the Self Tests. Taking the tests right after you've read the chapter is a good idea because the questions help reinforce what you've just learned. However, it's an even better idea to go back later and do all the questions in the book in one sitting. In this instance, pretend you're taking the live exam. (When you go through the questions the first time, mark your answers on a separate piece of paper. That way, you can run through the questions as many times as you need to until you feel comfortable with the material.)
Complete the Exercises. Did you do the exercises when you read through each chapter? If not, do them! These exercises are designed to cover exam topics, and there's no better way to get to know this material than by practicing. Be sure you understand why you're performing each step in each exercise. If there's something you're not clear on, re-read that section in the chapter.
Review the Final Test Study Guide and take the Final Test in the appendixes. You should retake this test until you can answer all questions correctly before taking Sun's exam.
