its a *little* dumbed down (not surprising, given the title), but It has definitely been helpful in my preparations for exams. Lots of practice tests and tips on how to get ready for the testing processes.*Edit*- I used this book heavily while preparing for the last hiring process I went through. I used the sections for the written test, the physical test, and the interview. Lo and behold, I have been offered a position on a career department!
This book has very clear instructions and explanations. It's great if you need to brush up on your math and mechanics before the firefighters test.
My son loved it. Thank you.
Very helpful, need any advantage you can get in this career. Multiple practice tests, very similar to tests at departments all over the country!
In very good shape, this book seems to have all the right materials lets see what happens.
A great book for getting started, pact full of basic info, and practice tests.
Great for studying to become a firefighter. Found the information current
Great book. Very helpful for exam prep!
