How To Pass for Course 4, ed. 2000

[Sunny]

Just out of curiosity. I just found this How To Pass for course 4, since it was published in 2000, how much has the required text changed since then???

And is How To Pass, not only applicable, but good? I mean superior to other manuals? What do peeps here think? :-?

I know How To Pass for course 3 is not only outdated but not good. But don't have any clue for this one for course 4.

It's the worst of the HTP series. You may learn a few things from that book, but it's not worth the money. If you get it for free, then it doesn't hurt skimming through the book. I don't recommend buying it.

I inherited it somehow, found it when I finally got to clean around my desk and shelves. Definitely didn't pay for it. Not sure if I should look at it.

It's probably worth opening. I used HTP2, and it wasn't a standalone manual, but it had some good tips/tricks for those who already had an understanding of the material. Save this for after you've covered everything with other manuals.

but has the syllabus changed much after 2000? If I'm correct, I guess some that were in c3 is now in c4, but the old 2000 c4 parts are still in the current exam?

There has been some change in the syllabus, but I don't know how much. I think you're incorrect in thinking that what used to be in C3 is now in C4. That's why I say save it for last. If you've covered all the material, you will no what is and is not on the syllabus once you go through HTP.

that's what I read from either Broverman or BPP's newest syllabus, saying the simulation part was in c3 before. :-?

[cubedbee]

There is stuff from Simulation in both exams. Different stuff. Same thing with the Loss Models text.

yeah I know. dunno why they try to confuse me. I was confused enough.
