Inaccurate study material
I have been using this program to study for the CSCS test. Though I have found it helpful I did not help me pass my exam. I also found multiple inconsistencies between the information in the study material vs the information in the textbook. The practice tests do not provide the correct answers and some of the flash cards are also incorrect as compared to the textbook. I also reached out to them multiple times about this and have gotten no response from them. I do not feel like they care about the information they are putting out or making sure that issues within their program are fixed. Would not recommend.
