Drug and medical testing wasn't cheap either. We also had to get a TWIC card at ~$137 a piece. I second Josh's comments about Mariners Learning System - but I had the hard copy books (as well as online / DVD's) and found myself using them on long flights, making notes etc. I passed the test easily after taking the course - I added a couple of apps to my phone for light / signal flash cards that came in handy. I would recommend Mariners Learning System - if you are OK learning from materials / on your own. Just to note, this was not my first experience with certification, having done the RYA tests when I lived in England.
Getting the correct medical and drug testing done is not as simple as it sounds.
