Is the content of the EU Course and The Ultimate EU Handbook the same?

Broadly speaking, yes, the book is based on the scripts of the EU Course, though we have refined and edited it extensively and added many images and graphics. (The book does not include the EU Policy Briefings.) The aim was to have a print version for those who like to annotate, read, and hold a physical book in their hands, while others prefer narrations and on-screen learning. 

Are the EU Course, EU Policy Briefings, and The Ultimate EU Handbook enough to pass the AD5 exam?

The knowledge in the course (or the book) and the policy briefings are essential for the EU knowledge tests, but you may need to go even deeper into some areas to increase your chances of passing the exam. It is impossible to predict how nuanced questions the Selection Board may use in the EU knowledge tests but knowing the above materials extremely well is for sure a great starting point
