I just went in and got both my technicians and general license the same day.
STUDY GUIDE
There's a link to a manual that will teach you every single thing you need to know. "No-Nonsense", everything you need to know and nothing you don't. It's a bit lengthy, but if you're serious about getting the license you will want to read every last paragraph to ensure you pass and have a good understanding.
PRACTICE EXAM
There's a link to the actual exam they give you. You will be able to test your knowledge by taking the practice test (which is the same as the real test), but it isn't all the same questions so the best thing to do is take the practice about 10 times to make sure that you're well rounded and ready for each question.
Getting the license is really easy, just study the manual and study the questions.
If you don't know, you can go here to see when and where you can go to take the exam/get your license. http://www.arrl.org/find-an-amateur-radio-license-exam-session
Good luck!
