Clarification Of Health Risk Factors

TC/HDL Ratio
(Preview)
Hi everyone, I've been going over the print-out from the Diagnostic exam. One of the questions I got wrong was due to the fact that I didn't know how to interpret the TC/HDL ratio. It was explained in the Douglas Brooks book (Programming For Personal Trainers") but I hadn't commited it to memory....

The YMCA submax bike test might have been better to determine cardio fitness. I THINK that it is because the 3 minute st...

My impression of the exam
(Preview)
From what I understand, ACE has two exams -- one more difficult than the other. You never know which one you're going to get. But I really do think that if you have been studying hard, there's no way you can fail this exam. Exercise, Etc. is particularly helpful since many of the questions are similar...

Is the Exam like Exercise, Etc.?
(Preview)
My impression was that the exam was a conglomeration of Exercise, Etc., the questions that ACE sends via email every week, and the practice exams. The questions were much more Exercise, Etc. like, however -- that particular format, and that level of difficulty.

What is Exercise, etc? I'm still bogged down just starting Chapter 3, so I'm closer to the front than the back of the manual. But I see others have made refernce to an Exercise, etc. CD.
