Huntington will also pre-test you, give you a mid-course test, and post-test you. Along the way, the tutors will give you section tests to keep you practiced. The tips are good and the tutors are certified teachers or on their way to certification. They all love teaching. In truth, a book or two will have the same information, but having a person talk to you and answer your questions will keep you on pace and interested. If cost is an issue, a book with a CD-ROM will work, however. If cost is not an issue and you think that you need pacing for your preparation, I think that HLC is a good idea. Oh yeah, by the way, students who took the course (where I *worked*), recommended it highly to their friends. The tutors were fully booked. Your score could improve by 3-5 points, or more. I'm not "selling" here, but I do think it's good. Depends on the tutor, but they’re usually good. Huntington will also pre-test you, give you a mid-course test, and post-test you.
