I'm not sure what format your dept is going to use for the testing, but we used the Michigan Municipal League testing proceedure.

I found that the IFSTA red books are very helpful for these types of tests. The test is broken up in the following areas:

1. General Technical Knowledge
2. Injuries and First Aid
3. Fire Suppression
4. Inspection and Planning
5. Size-up, Fire Ground, Hazards
6. Supervision

The red books have seperate books for each topic plus the overall essentials book. READ, READ, READ and then READ more.

Best of luck,

P.S. Did I mention to READ all the time.
