haha, it’s cool. And no prob.

I know Barron’s has an “Aiming for a 36 book” with specialized review. Barron’s also make workbooks specifically for the subjects. I hear they’re good, but I’ve never used them. In terms of my scores, I think a combination of reading all three of the books and A LOT of practice helped me. For the February test, I didn’t study, and I got a 27. When I read those three books and took a sh-tload of practice tests, I raised my score to a 33. Hopefully it’s even higher. Ultimately, I think it comes down to knowing the material, and knowing how to finish the test in time. This means practice tests are VERY important as a supplement to studying from a book.
