I skimmed through most of the book and ran out of time on the practice exam, on which I scored a 240. I'd never heard of Paula Begoun, but I do try to be an informed consumer. If you want to learn how to use SPICE to simulate mixed mode systems then this book is a great resource. Where would I stick one but on my down tube?.
