I tested in MA, and the three things that helped me the most were rereading the chapters from our textbook (especially the summaries and vocab sections at the end of each chapter), reviewing all the powerpoints from class which my professor transferred to my flash drive and this book:

The book is fun because it has scenarios that help your critical thinking skills so you aren't purely remembering vocab and basic concepts. Be sure to check and make sure the stuff in the book is consistent with what you are taught in class and the Illinois state protocols so you don't study incorrect information.
Good luck!

IDPH offers a study guide on there website heres the pdf link, Study Guide. It has the abbreviations you need to know as well as a break down of the types of questions that will be asked as well as some sample questions. I actually saw one of those questions on my test (question 9 to be exact) and knew the answer because I had checked out their study guide.
