Forget Textbooks, all the textbooks key information is in this document. I did a exam on this therefore I learned the whole chapter and put the main information on a word document, making it easy for me receive instead of staring at a textbook the whole day and finding useless information. This document takes you right the point on what you should be learning, therefore saving you a lot of time and learning information more quickly. You can also copy past information on flashcards if that's the way you learn.
