Default Best Study Material

I see that most of the people are using the PAK study manuals. Is it the best study manual out there? Have people find PAK better than ACTEX or anyother manual out there??\

Looking to see which one I should buy for the spring sitting.

Thanks.

A quick perusal of these boards will reveal that many candidates prefer PAK to other options. I used PAK and another study guide for FETE in Fall 2010, and by the beginning of September I'd lost the other study guide.

Perhaps one of the biggest ticks in PAK's favour is the incredible customer service and help with difficult concepts offered by Eddy. That is real "value-added" if I've ever seen it.
