Customer Reviews

treasury enforcement exam

Getting this book is the reason I had any chance of passing the TEA exam. I was better prepared than with the other books of it's type that I had purchased.

Worth it

If you're looking for the best TEA review on the market, this is it. I purchased two other books and studied their practice tests. They were no where near as close as the ARCO book is. The ARCO review's problems are in fact significantly harder than the actual test (for the most part), but if you really practice this book will get you through the TEA exam.

Examination Overview

The ARCO book is definitely the best option for preparing for the TEA exam. The other book is almost worthless. To score well I would suggest being able to do the questions in half the time provided in this study guide. The questions on the actual test are much more difficult and while under pressure there seems to be less time available. It is a fairly good study guide, it does contain a lot of worthless generic information in the front of the book. The only downside is that there are not more practical exercises. Overall, I wouldn't have passed the TEA without studying and this book definitely aided me.

Home Run

If you can do all of the practice test in the time allotted, you will do fine. The questions in the book are very similar in format of the test questions. Pay attention to the math questions and how to quickly identify the formula and algebraic structure for selected word problems, it saves a lot of time. This book was well worth the money, I scored very well on the test and I have not done this kind of math in a while. Good Luck!

Best I Found

The ARCO booklet is the best help booklet I found. That's not to say it's perfect, it's just the best I found. I recommend studying like crazy as soon as find out you'll be taking the test. The test is seriously no joke. I took it and passed, but not by much. Best wishes to all.
