SEARCH for ADAR REVIEW
This original edition from 2013 is a classic and affordable book to prepare for the FSOT exam.
The New Edition was updated for the changes to the test during the 2014 transition from ACT to PearsonVue.
The Complete Study Guide to the Foreign Service Officer Test includes information about the test and Foreign Service, valuable test-taking strategies, practice questions and essay prompts.
According to the Department of State, 22,000 candidates took the FSOT in 2012 but only 425 Foreign Service Officers were hired that year. The FSOT and other steps in the candidacy are extremely competitive. In addition, if you take the FSOT unprepared and fail the exam, the Department of State requires that you wait 12 months before becoming eligible to take the test again. Thus, it is extremely important to be prepared the first time.

FSOTreview.com Adar began offering test preparation services for the CFA Exam, a six-hour long exam given by the CFA Institute(R) in 2006. The CFA test preparation course includes a study guide on several different topics, including Economics, Finance, Statistics and Ethics.
In 2008, Adar recognized the need for a comprehensive preparation course for the Foreign Service Officer Test. Although there were many preparation materials in the market, we found that none of them offered a comprehensive solution to prepare for the exam. Some books offered practice questions only, while others offered a general test-taking course but lacked sufficient specific information targeted to the FSOT.
The Adar Review materials were prepared by successful candidates who passed the CFA Exam, the FSOT and the FSOA. The principal author of the FSOT review materials received an appointment offer to a recent Junior Officer Class.
The purpose of this book is to provide an introduction to the FSOT, and to help you prepare for the written exam and oral assessment. Although it is not possible to provide all the information that you need to pass the exam in one volume as much of the materials for the exam will be based on current affairs, the coverage of which is beyond the scope of this material, we have prepared a reading list that is much shorter and more focused than the list provided by the Department of State, which we consider far too extensive to be useful in you preparation. We also provide a study guide and practice questions for the exam.
Adar Review believes that all candidates should be able to afford our Study Guide. Thus, while we believe that a physical book offers the best resource for test preparation, we also offer a more economical Kindle version of the Study Guide and a free version to Amazon Prime members through the Kindle Owners' Lending Library.
