Secured Transactions: Lexis OverDrive Study Aids

The fourth edition of the Q&A: Secured Transactions study guide offers more than 300 multiple-choice and short-answer questions to test your knowledge of material covered in most Secured Transactions (UCC Article 9) courses.

Each short-answer question (designed to be answered in no more than fifteen minutes) is followed by a thoughtful, yet brief, model answer. The questions are arranged by topic, and the study guide includes a "final exam" of over 40 questions. The comprehensive topical index makes it easy for users to test themselves on the various topics, regardless of the casebook being used or the order in which the professor is covering the material.
