Shrm-Cp Exam Secrets Study Guide: Shrm Test Review for the Society for Human Resource Management Certified Professional Exam

I purchased "SHRM-CP Exam Secrets Study a guide" in June 2017. The product rating would be a "5".I begin reading product on the 1st day of receipt and it proved to be very highlighting. I am in the process of studying for my CP Certification and I found the material very easy to read. Being that I have not had to really study in quite sometime. The book size did not feel overwhelming even though it has a huge amount of knowledge. The practice exam has been very helpful in getting me familiar again with taking exams .Great product!!!

I have really enjoyed the study guide so far. It gets straight to the point, without all the fluff that can make test prepping a drag. It dives right into the key concepts and terms that are needed and encompasses the meaning of a study guide to prep for an exam. As an HR professional, this guide brings in all the terms and concepts that we should already be familiar with and presents it in a simple and straight forward presentation. This is exactly what I was looking for and it did not disappoint.

The products overall are amazing Study systems for long-term studying. However, considering that there is so much information to learn, it's not as easy to remember everything. For example, the flashcards are great, but it's hard to remember every single thing that you need to study because there is an overabundance of information per flashcard, which I found to be just as overwhelming as it is helpful.

This book helped me pass my SHRM-CP exam, so I loved it! It is written in a very concise manner, no fluff, but that also makes it very hard to read. I am a quick reader, but the dryness in this book made me have to really slow down and re-read many times to really make sure I understood. Does it repeat itself? Yes. The paragraphs look similar, but there is always new information presented, so don't skip sections just because it looks like the paragraph above! The practice tests in this book were closest to my exam questions so I appreciated that.Now, because everyone asks, this is what I used to pass:- This book, read it, took the test at the end, looked up what I didn't recognize (and there are things in the test in the back that aren't in the book!), reread it, and took the test in the book again.- Another book of just 500 example questions (the pink one by Olemide Asekun) where I took each test and studied what I didn't know- Read the SHRM Bok available for free download on their website. Look up anything you haven't mastered and get friendly with their definitions in the back- Downloaded the free app Quizlet and found a SHRM-CP flashcard set with 750+ terms. Studied those whenever I had a chance. On the bike at the gym, as a car passenger, in between meetings, waiting to get my nails done, etc.

- No wasted time or space - Right from the beginning this book jumps into what matters most. The material. There is just one page on how to use this guide, one page of table of contents and one page on test taking tips. This kept the size of the book concise and less intimidating. (that's 2 points right there)- Easy to view - I like how there a heading in bold for each topic. If there is a sub topic or if there are multiple points they placed as a separate paragraph but does not have an unnecessary heading in bold. This makes going back to topics you'd like to review again much easier.- Easy to understand - The language seems easy enough to understand. Not too much "fluff" which I sincerely appreciate.- Great Q&A - I love that each question has explanations for the right answer and the wrong ones. I would have loved more questions though.- Study and test taking secrets - Although most of us know these we tend to forget to apply. It is nice to have these pointers at the back of the book so when I'm tired of reading the material I can flip pages and skim through the study secrets and remind myself of what I should or should not do.
