"A fool and his money are soon parted."
Yep, they charge for the info. But, I've never seen such a well put-together site. Most people spend tons of money to prepare themselves for testing. This site is huge, and costs about the same as one book.
To me, getting something good is worth spending money. When you say, "A fool and his money are soon parted," you are probably talking about FOOLISH propositions. I wouldn't call buying groceries when you're hungry a foolish propostion, and I wouldn't call getting help when you need it a foolish one either.
Anyway, it's worth a look if you are trying to get hired.
