Study Group for the Court of Master Sommeliers Exams is a English group. Having alot of group type in Facebook: close, open and secret and it is a CLOSED group. There are 3,414 participants in that group. So it is a Medium group. 2218388380 is the identifier of this group with Facebook. Last update is on 2015-01-26 05:59:03.
This group is meant to serve as a study group for anyone taking an exam by the Court of Master Sommeliers. From the Introductory Course to the Master Exam. Also feel free to include any questions or information about tests from the Society of Wine Educators, the Masters of Wine, the International Sommelier Guild and so forth.
This group is completely unaffiliated with the CMS, the SWE, or the MW and so on. Just an informal forum for us to exchange study material and help each other get ready for tests.
We cannot guarantee that every tidbit of info on this site is fully accurate- if for nothing else because the world of wine evolves so rapidly. Do not rely on this group as your sole source of info. Make sure you are using current books, and if possible, studying with a group of people face to face.
I created a yahoo group so we can upload study materials in their original form, rather than copying and pasting from messageboards. You need a yahoo account to download the files, but I think its worth the trouble:
