My experience in 2006 when i took the test. I bought Life in the UK: A Journal to Citizenship from local book shop for about I think ?£11 or something. I read through Chaper 2,3,4 , perhaps 6 as well, slowly for 2 times, spending 4-5 days. And then I did the practice at http://www.3g4g.co.uk/Stuff/...
