Not bad, but plenty of other resources. You can download all the files for free. The best prep is practicing in person with someone you trust and who knows what they’re doing

One hour coaching? Not sure what that is - so clearly don’t think it’s necessary 😊 I bought LOMS direct but don’t think it came with coaching when I did (or maybe I got the smaller package)

Thank you for your input. I’ll have a short period of time to prepare as well. About to purchase. There goes $500

awesome! Would you guys say this is better than FirmsConsulting program? Looks like a competitor

Did you guys find the 1 hour coaching valuable or was it something that’s something that an experienced case partner could tell you?

Asking bc I could get LOMS from a friend or just buy the thing

Ah ok, no one here mentions it either. Prob not worth it. Wish me luck, thanks bain1 and others :)
