Anyone have any input on the Sari Greene/Pearson video series?

in SSCP
Picking back up studying after about a 1.5 year hiatus due to professional (workload) and personal (moved 3 times) distractions. I've been off/on-again studying for over 3 years and have viewed the Old Cybrary, New Cybary vids, and took the (worthless) Trainingcamp boot-camp back in 2015.

Any thoughts on the Sari Greene videos to brush things off and as a final pass as I spin back up?

Thanks,

-Calvin

    My opinion, I thought it was very well done and went much further in detail than Kelly Handerhan's on Cybrary.it. I recommend watching both. Kelly's for the great overview and Sari's for more depth.

    I confirm what averageguy72 says. Kelly is very down to earth, very "direct" in explaining but miss some detail that Sari Green cover. Kelly's video are better to get the right mindset, but knowledge is more heavy in Sari Green's video.

    Doesn't seem like it would be worth $400 or even $240 with the 40% off.

    I don't think you'll be disappointed. She has a pretty cool format and I feel she explains everything in great detail. The three best video series, in my opinion, are:

    Kelly Handerhan's course
    Sari Greene's video course
    Lynda.com Mike Chapple video series

    I kinda feel like Sari's or Chapple's videos in conjunction with the Kelly Handerhan course will definitely help your preparation.

    Get a month of Safaribooksonline for 39$ USD instead, cancel after that or never like I did :) I am an happy subscriber since 2012.

    Also, it happened a few time that Safari had big discount around Thanksgiving. I got 199$/years lifetime 2 years ago on their CyberMonday promo. It was an instant sales :)
