    Read the textbooks. Don't focus too much on Canada. There's a practice test available on the RAPS website.

    I agree. Don't focus much on Canada. Read the Fundamentals books and take the practice exam and you will be fine. The exam covers many topics but there are 4 themes (1) premarket (2) postmarket (3)strategy and (4)interfacing.  And experience is the most valuable study tool and of course, common sense.

    Thank you for your input. Can you please suggest which book shall I go for? 
    Also, I am confused if I opt US RAC or Medical Devices RAC. I have 5 years of experience in medical device industry though.
