TSM Fact:  Taylor Study Method utilizes a 15 year Proven Method of Learning to insure your success.

I am currently using the Taylor Study Method to prepare for the EPPP. I take it in 6 days. I have been using the two-three month model of study and found it very do-able with a full time postdoc. I am very pleased with the broken down study sessions of key terms, personal flashcard review and unlimited practice tests. It has provided a solid foundation and it makes the studying process fun. I like the TSM the most because it is online, available anytime overseas and the format of study delivery mimics the actual testing conditions. I am ready for the exam and I will continue to prepare until the test date arrives.
