    I purchased this book and corresponding study guide (a must) to study for my second attempt at the HTL exam. It is the only book that I have seen that tackles >90% of material on the exam. It doesn't go into too much detail, just enough for concepts to "stick". The pictures and explanations that it provides are excellent. I also purchased the flashcards (HTL Exam Secrets brand) which proved to be useless as the book will cover all that more clearly. Flashcards also do not have pictures, which are an integral part of the exam. 1st attempt-270, 2nd attempt-570, passing score-400. On a 2-day a week study basis (weekends only) it took me about 10 months to fully understand and absorb the vast majority of the material.
