I am planning to use ACTEX 2012, specially dsign after the new test, what do you know about the manual? Anybody with the same idea?? Is ACTEX 2012 better than TIA?
THanks
For what it's worth, I ended up passing using Actex in May. I studied roughly about 120 hours and had no prior knowledge on the material. The explanations were great. They were kept simple and straight to the point. The practice questions were very helpful too.

If you're looking for another manual, Actex is pretty good.

Pretty pleased with TIA so far, the explanations are great, and the exercises / problems are pretty useful. Good to hear Actex is great too.
