5.0 out of 5 stars A must have! Oct 27 2011

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
One goal of mine this year was to become professionally certified in AutoCAD. I registered for the tests and purchased the AutoCAD 2012 Bible as my study guide. I am happy to say that I have passed both AutoCAD 2011 and 2012 associate and professional exams, in fact I did very well.

The AutoCAD Bible is a great book and resource on all things AutoCAD. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to master their skills in AutoCAD. If you are a beginner or an expert, there is something in there for everyone

5.0 out of 5 stars AutoCAD 2012 Sep 1 2011
By Eddie - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Most people that use AutoCAD need some form of formal training. Some people can get by with reading the manual. I for one was able to follow your AutoCAD 2012 Bible as if I was in a classroom. I was able to take your beginner instructions and my first project was completed within a hour.

When I first received your book, I was a little bit overwhelmed by the shear volume of information. I immediately thought it was going to be a tome for engineers that would find it's way to my bookshelf never to be seen again., but after I opened the book and started on lesson 1, I was in the running and now am very thankful for layout and ease of use.

Your included DVD resource is awesome. I found the sample drawings to be very helpful and very entertaining to play with and manipulate as I hone my skills.

Thanks so much!

Happy AutoCAD 2012 Bible user.
