Customer Reviews

Informative and Interesting

This is the fourth book I have read which is intended to prepare the reader for, and generally teach about, the FBI special agent hiring and training processes. Of those that I have read, this is the only one that doesn't feel like it copied 99% of its contents straight out of an FBI manual.

Informative--That's what I needed.

A different reviewer of this book said it was dull and boring. Personally, I find the book to be a great read. If you know nothing, or very little about the FBI and are interested in possibly becoming a SA then this book is the book for you. It's very informative. If however, you know a lot already about the FBI then I can see how the book would be boring.
