You don't need SchweserPro (the cd). Get the online to go with the study notes though, it was very helpful in practicing areas that were giving me trouble. You can zero in on specific LOS and answer questions about each if you want. Also, if you ever travel, it's nice b/c you can log on from any computer with web access to your own account and pick up where you left off. If I passed in June this will be good advice, if I didn't, don't listen to me.
