Preparatory courses for Part II 1 and II ABHP -Reply

Response to Stephane Jean-Francis' querry:

Your options, of course, are self-study, intensive commercial courses, and extended courses
offered by HPS Chapters.  I would recommend all three.  Study is essential; it is the only way
to learn.  Commercial courses can be good if they get you away from the day-to-day
distractions but they are costly and a little like trying to drink from a fire hose.  The
Chapter-sponsered courses tend to be much less costly and spread out over several months. 
The Baltimore-Washington Chapter course has been around for about 3 decades and, I
believe, is about as good as you are likely to find.  Furthermore, it has provisions for
correspondence students.  Contact Howard Hering at hhassoc@erols.com or Fred Ferate at
