· By including exercise questions that supply fewer connectors than multiple-choice questions. This
helps you exercise recall and avoids giving you a false sense of confidence, as an exercise with only
multiple-choice questions might do. For example, fill-in-the-blank questions require you to have
better recall than a multiple-choice question.
· By pulling the entire breadth of subject matter together. A separate, larger chapter (Chapter 9)
contains scenarios and several related questions that cover every topic on the exam and gives
you the chance to prove that you have gained mastery over the subject matter. This reduces the
connectors implied by questions residing in a particular chapter and requires you to exercise other
connectors to remember the details.
· Finally, accompanying this book is a CD-ROM that has exam-like, multiple-choice questions. These
are useful for you to practice taking the exam and to get accustomed to the time restrictions imposed
during the exam.
