Don't let anyone tell you different, I got this review manual and studied basically nothing but it and just passed my COA today!!! I was even told at Jacapho, that I have waisted my time studying this book and that I should have rescheduled my exam cause none of the questions that are in this book are on the exam!! Well guess what she was not right!! Even though the wording is not verbatium, the information is very valuable- it is a study guide, not the answers to the COA test!! Without it I would not have passed!! It made me aware of the things that I needed to read and do more research on and focus more on those things verses reading some huge book full of words and not really making you think through the whys and why nots- this book is so great cause if you don't get the question correct, it goes into detail and explains why, which proves to be way more valuable!!!
GET IT!!!

This book helped me start to study for the COA but it needs updated, as the test material has changed and the CPR guidelines have changed.
A must have when studying for the COA exam October 27, 2008

This book is a valuable tool in studying for the COA test. I bought this book after reading many reviews. I would like to say, if you are even thinking about the COA test, you must have this study guide. I found that the sections were well laid out, the answers were well defined. This book is a much better resource than the COA Manuel purchased from the Academy. When you finish this study guide, you will be more than prepared for the COA exam!!! It is well worth the investment and will become a resource guide for you and for your office.
 Awful Study Guide May 5, 2008

I purchased this guide for my COT review, and thank goodness I purchased Stein's book as well or I would not have passed. The book Ledford wrote has incorrect information in the optics section, like figuring out the dioptric power of a magnifying glass. This is just an example of many errors in this text. I also found much easier ways to calculate certain formulas than contained in this text.
At first I wasn't so sure that any of this information could be incorrect, however it was confirmed by an O.D. and a COMT. I also wrote to JCAHPO and they stated that Ledford's book was not an approved study guide for the COT examination.
Buyer Beware!!!
