G'day All,

Well I am scheduled to sit the Principles of Management and the Principles of Statistics tomorrow and feel well and truly under prepared for both. It seems that getting the Principles of Statistics through this thick skull of mine has been a major chore leaving no time to devote to the Principles of Management at all. Anyway, I have committed to sitting these tests tomorrow and I will report back, pass or fail, on how I go.

The purpose of this post is because while considering my lack of preparation at work today I did a quick search of the net and found a couple of links others may find of use. The first link leads to a series of PowerPoint presentations addressing the Principles of Management (which I am reading through now), the second is a link that seems to have some useful information in regard to business studies (unfortunately too much for me to get through tonight) and the third is a Statistics link. I did a search of the forum and didn’t find reference to these links so if they do appear elsewhere I apologize. I do hope someone can find some useful information from these links.

I wouldn't stress about Principles of management, as long as you know all the instantcert cards. IC is MORE than enough to easily pass this exam, as long as you know the cards well.

I would rate this as the easiest, followed by Intro to Business and Principles of Supervision. Then there's introductory Sociology and Psychology (both ridiculously easy). Anyway, you should be fine.

Good Luck!
