For this recent testing cycle, I used PDG Made Easy (Kindle version) and loved that I was able to study anywhere, anytime with my phone or tablet.

Thank you for creating McMillan Study Guides! Great product! I made SSgt with it, and I am studying for TSgt with McMillan Study Guides.

Eielson AFB, AK

I have used PDG Advisor in the past and am currently using it as part of my study plan. I like how it incorporates the MKTS into its study plan, which is very useful when trying to study AFH 1.
TSgt Omar Portillo
JB Pearl Harbor-Hickam, HI
September 2016
I love PDG GOLD because it not only breaks down the PDG, but it also breaks down the real test. I have tested several times and saw answers worded the exact same way on the test.

Thanks, team McMillan. I’ve been using your study guides for all my promotions, and I can say that I would never have been able to make that next stripe without your product.

I have been utilizing McMillan’s study guides for about two years. PDG GOLD for SNCOs has been helpful to assist in my goal of making rank. Thank you for selecting me as the winner of the monthly sweepstakes.
TSgt Cameron Frizzell
RAF Mildenhall, GB
May 2016
I have used McMillan’s guides every testing year. It makes studying fun and easy. Without it, I wouldn’t have been able to progress in my career as fast as I have. Thank you for the help.
SSgt Cindy Sprague
Malstrom AFB, MT
April 2016
McMillan's study guides helped me not only pass my 5-level CDCs, but achieve a score way above my goal. Additionally, last year I used PDG Advisor to test for Staff and I made rank. Truly, using these study guides is a great way to ensure promotion and upgrade training!
SrA Sean Goddard
Keesler AFB, MS
March 2016
I love your products, especially PDG Advisor. It brings up important topics that Airmen need to know and the quizzes and ReviewNotes are perfect for getting Airmen up to speed.
SrA Kierra Adams
Wheeler AAF, HI
February 2016
I've heard great things about Advisor from coworkers. I will be testing soon and hope it will pay off.
TSgt Hiralda Hammel
Minot AFB, ND

I love the products available from McMillan Study Guides. As a busy wife, mom and full-time USAF member, the Audio CDs make studying on the go very easy! I listen to them to and from work. Thank you!
