"StudyDisk" allows the user to assess their strengths and weaknesses by generating a performance analysis (which can be viewed on screen or printed out), which details test results by topic, factual versus problem-solving ability, question type, clinical data and data interpretation. Simple to load and to use, these titles are a cost-effective step towards successful test-taking. Study tips and suggestions are focused to meet students' specific needs.
