"B" covers different questions and answers but embodies the same, successful format as "A" - namely a question-answer, testing format. You don't need to take "A" to benefit from "B". Neither set of questions is any "better" than the other, they're just different questions. Both databases cover all of the relevant topics tested. In general, all things being equal, Dr Jensen recommends taking the course as early as possible because it changes the way one prepares for the test and provides insights regarding topics of strength and weakness which are best gained as soon as possible.

"C" and "D" cover different questions and answers but embody the same successful format as "A" and "B" - namely a question-answer, testing format. You don't need to take "A" or "B" to benefit from "C" and/or "D". The questions in "C" and/or "D" are not any better than the questions in "A" or "B", but they are different questions and many who have attended "A" and/or "B" have found them very helpful. "C" and "D" are given closer to the examination and in this way are a "buff and polish" session, highly productive and useful in the 11th hour before D-Day. The Final PREP "C" or "D" programs calm anxiety, provide a focused and structured environment, and very much get the Ranger warrior in the "test-taking mode" which can be so critical to success.

Again, we are often asked which program is strongest. Our answer is honest and very simple: The courses are equal in strength. They are simply different sets of questions but many find they benefit from as much exposure to high quality questions and answers as possible.
