Print out the Part I content outline, only study the subjects listed there. Second, study all of your course notes from the first two years or get your hands on one of the study guides, enough of it is there to do reasonably well if you learn it.

I did a combination of my own course notes and the ICO guide, with a few sample questions from this book

Some people might also suggest reading Visual Perception by Schwartz, but I didn't find it necessary using my course notes.

thanks for the info, I will have to get a book like the ICO guide?

I would consider another guide, the ICO guide stands at about 5 inches thick... Berkley should be fine.
