I was caught off guard by the breadth of the funeral service boards even after completing my mortuary science degree. Embalming chemistry, grief support, legal compliance, and business operations are all fair game and this resource addressed each area meaningfully. I leaned on my school textbooks for the deeper chemistry questions but for regulatory content and exam structure this was exactly what I needed and I passed both the arts and sciences portions on my first sitting.

I was most worried about the Mortuary Law section, but Prephow's tests covered all the key statutes and ethics scenarios. Passing my exam was a huge relief, and I owe a lot of that to this focused practice. It was worth every penny.
