Lisa:
The first 5 parts of the exam covers a body of knowledge rather than coursework or a particular publication. The questions are taken from a large selection of current publications. A free downloadable handbook is available on the ICRM website which includes a complete bibliography of the publications from which most of the questions are taken (there are a lot). The Study Paks include some of these.
The Study Paks can be purchased for each exam Part or you can purchase the Mega Pak which includes them all. The full list of publications in the Mega Pak is:

Subject: [RM] CRM study pack
Greetings,
Eventually, I would like to sit for the CRM exam. I see there is a study pack prep material available for approx.. $800. When they say the pack includes 18 publications, what does that entail? How long are the publications?
Would you consider the study pack a good investment? Are there any alternatives? I would love to find something like the Kaplan GRE prep book.
Any recommendations from the field?
Thanks in advance!
Lisa
