I drive alot between work and school.. Anyone know about a audio book to help me prepare for the ASTB?
No, but if you need me to, I'll read to you. I charge $25/hour. I know this sounds kind of pricey, but I'm a good reader.

It's Steve's collateral duty to being a "Professional Advice Giver Outer." It's $8.99 for the first minute, $1.99 for every minute thereafter. He's really good in that first minute.

Sorry to resurrect a dead thread, but I was wondering the same thing. I don't necessarily want an ASTB audio study guide, but something I would like something I could listen to at work that would supplement my reading. I'd have no idea where to start looking for something like that though.
Danke.

I dont believe such a thing exists. The only suggestion I can offer is to see if textbooks on audio are available somewhere and find some pertaining to the particular subject of the ASTB...

I would suggest if you are trying to study something that you sit down and write things out and actually figure out the portions that you dont understand. I dont know, maybe you can learn **** from listening to it while driving in the car, but for me its like sitting in a class and watching the instructor do something and it looks easy and sounds like it all makes sense. Then you go to try it on your own and say "$hit I wish I took notes on that". Now if you want to memorize something like general orders or ranks, etc. then make a recording. Those work great.

But since its such an important test, you need to find some time to sit down and plug away at it. Plus, the SA portion would be kind of hard as an audio book.

Some people are auditory learners and prefer to hear what they are learning instead of looking at it. Good point on the SA....

Thanks. I understand what you're saying.
There's definitely no substitute for making time to read. I just want a way to study when I'm not studying so that it stays fresh in my head.
Much appreciated.
