I've been studying for my Extra Class for a pretty long time now (Sheesh!
A couple YEARS) and understand that the question pool has changed. No, I'm
not interested in a question pool/cheat sheet. I want to make sure I
understand all the subject matter and pass the test. I have the "ARRL Extra
Class License Manual" published in 2000 and want to continue studying with
it. Here's my question.
Since the question pool has changed, has the material changed? Should I
go buy the 8th printing to make sure I have a manual that focuses on newer
requirements?

You can download the question pool from ARRL:

You can also take one of the online tests at a place like qrz.com


Nothing wrong with using the question pool. If you can read a study
guide book where the answers are, it's just about the same thing. Go for
it, Drink!

p.s. unless you are into the idea of memorizing 800 some questions,
you're better off to take the online tests, then study up on the
questions you missed.
