How to Use REA's PTCE Study System
There are many different ways to prepare for the PTCE. What’s best for you depends on how much time you have to study and how comfortable you are with the subject matter. To score your highest, you need a study system that can be customized to fit you: your schedule, your learning style, and your current level of knowledge.
This flashcard book and the accompanying online tools will help you personalize your PTCE prep by testing your understanding, pinpointing your weaknesses, and delivering flashcard materials unique to you. REA’s PTCE flashcards are an excellent way to refresh your knowledge and check your test-readiness before exam day.
