This book is meant to be a supplemental revision resource, and it's most effective when paired with hands-on practice, broader study, and professional training. Just so you know, it doesn't replace the kind of foundational learning you'd expect, and it doesn't guarantee any particular results. Rather, it gives you a straightforward, exam-focused path for self-assessment and last-minute preparation.
