Study Material Costs
#1
I feel study material costs are the most valuable investment. That is why I didn't hesitate to sign-up with instantcert and also a reason I will purchase other study guides in addition to instantcert to make sure I pass an exam. I figure that I am already saving tremendous amounts of cash by getting credit through exams instead of expensive colleges, so I don't feel bad about $20 here-and-there.

If I fix my own car and need to buy special tools to do the job, I don't feel bad about it so long as I save several hundred in the process. The same philosophy.

So I do encourage people to pay to take practice tests online or get additional study material if they feel it will improve their score and chances to pass and also boost their confidence. It is a small price to pay for the large future benefits.

I know some people that will say no to instantcert when I mention the $20/month and I just shrug and shake my head!

A cheap way to get college textbooks is to look up college courses at the above sites (TESC) and find the current text book they are using for courses. Then go to Amazon and look up used texts of older editions and you can often find excellent books for less than $5!

I hope this helps others meet their goals.Big Grin
