Thus, the applicant "takes" an actual examination as he learns to cope with the numerous valid authentic questions and problems. Then attending the highest objective in self-learning, he rates and diagnostically evaluates himself by marking his answers directly in the margin of the page and compares these with the correct answers given at the end of each section. PROGRAMMED LEARNING...The books closely follow and present the full format and content of the examination and provide step-by-step instruction, in a sequential and systematic way, together with impressive amounts of practice and drill materials. PRESENTATION OF QUESTIONS...The form and substance of the questions typify the latest findings in graduated methods and procedures. The questions are of the multiple-choice type, each containing four or five items, as will appear on the examination itself. The questions not only scan and sample the basic content of the subject matter outlined in the official bulletins of information, but also translate the applicant into the ongoing metamorphic and dynamic philosophy, principles, practices, procedures, and problems of the academic-professional world of insightful thinking and expansive reading in which he will flourish and on which he will make his impress. BUILDING SELF-CONFIDENCE...No questions in the books go unanswered. The result is that the applicant prepares confidently, and a climate of success is established for him since he now knows that there is no question, no problem, no situation which cannot be answered or solved correctly and meaningfully.
