Studied this book over the course of 2 weeks and passed my CTS with a 441. If you are planning to sit for your CTS I would recommend this book. Read the book through and take notes. After you have read the book all the way through, study your notes. Then, try to answer the review questions at the end of each chapter. Re-read sections relative to any of these that you missed (take notes here as well) until you comprehend the answer. In most cases it will not help just to memorize answers to the review questions or the practice test questions. You have to understand the concept behind the answer. Next, take the practice test that is on the CD that comes with the book. Follow the same instructions for this also (re-read and take notes as needed). Next, take the Infocomm online practice test and do the same with those questions. Last review all your notes and go take the test. It helped me to re-write my notes in another notebook and put them in my own words while I reviewed them. Good luck and hope this helps.
This resource is only okay. It's pretty obvious that this book isn't a professional text book. It's extremely wordy and it doesn't present information in the simplest or most logical way. Information that's related is often not presented side by side making it difficult to keep track of what the book is trying to teach.
This book is useful to learn what it is you need to learn about. I spend a good amount of my time with this book looking up clarifications on concepts online where they're often explained much better. This simply cannot be your only resource if you have no/little industry experience. It's a good supplement to in-field experience, but overall this book is a chore to decipher sometimes. Often times the book will introduce a "vocab word" in a paragraph without ever actually telling you what it is. The author randomly italicizes words of interest...usually this denotes a vocab word and indicates that it can be found in the glossary in the back. Many of these italicized "vocab words" don't appear anywhere in the glossary and some even lack definition at all in the text. In general, confusing or unusual terminology are used instead of simply, colloquial explanations. I would cautiously recommend this to others simply because of the lack of other comprehensive resources available, but be prepared to do a lot of independent research to understand some of the concepts in this book.
Amazon service was great as always. The book has great span of information, but not always applicable to the exam. Either the book should have more content that actually appears on the exam or the exam should have more book content (and less questions that are field related that someone who isn't out in the field but yet still in the industry wouldn't know or need years of experience to relate).
Very helpful for learning field and preparing for CTS test.
Perfect. Exactly what I was expecting.
