 Excellent Supplemental to Course Instruction December 28, 2008
Ari Rubin (Los Angeles, CA United States)
Exam Cram's Life and Health insurance license exam book is an excellent supplemental learning tool that I used as a companion text along with the course I took to prepare for the California exam. I went through a popular online course as an alternative to class room instruction, and since the text for the course was completely online I wanted to have a hard copy text to study as well. This book seemed like the best choice.
I got the book a couple of days before my test date, and before going through it I wasn't as confident. However, the book is structured well, written clearly, and written to emphasize the most important facts needed to pass the exam, instead of minutiae. By the day of the test I still was a little concerned due to the volume of information covered but much more confident than I had been before getting the book. The test was moderately difficult, but I was among the first to finish. I think I may have finished before any of the other Life and Health exam takers, and I did indeed pass (I have been told that many people don't pass on their first try with that exam). I'm not entirely sure I would have been successful without the book; I know for a fact that I wouldn't have finished as quickly without it. Some have criticized this book for not having state specific information in it, but I don't find that criticism to be all that valid. The information presented in the book may not have been written specifically for California, but the content was almost identical to the content of my California-specific online course. Additionally, very few of the questions on the exam were specific to California anyway. I highly recommend this book based on personal experience. I have also purchased the Property and Casualty Exam Cram book but have yet to take that exam.
 A little disappointed November 14, 2008
Jeff Fenske (Northridge, CA)
I bought this book because the title, Exam Cram, led me to believe the questions on the included CD were similar to the state exam test questions and they were not. I took my test today. I would have been better off buying the `exam cram' course offered by one of the schools in my state that offer pre-license training. I was just trying to save some money from the local school's price of $69, but the questions weren't at all what were on the test I took today. Because I went to the local school, and took a lesser priced exam cram 8 hour class for $20, I passed. I'm sure if you are really good at reading technical material and memorizing peculiar pieces of it, the book will do just fine. But, if you want to pass the test, so you can go to work in the real world, and not the test world, and see how the state will form their questions and how they may try to trick you with the way they are worded, you're better off with a school that offers training in your state and has questions that more closely resemble what you will be asked. I passed my test today, but I don't believe it had anything to do with the questions included on the CD that came with the book, rather the information that was highlighted as being on the test when I went to the local school.
Great Book! October 29, 2008

I made the mistake of listening to my course instructor and only read the limited course material. I had purchased this book with the anticipation of not taking any course study. To make a long story short, the book by far was much better than the course itself. I wouldn't waste any time taking a course but I do recommend finding out specifics to your state requirements. I don't think I could've passed the Health exam without this book.
 poor book September 13, 2008

in only one chapter, I found what I thought were two errors: the author mixed up churning and twisting, and had the wrong definition for 'per stirpes'. Very discouraging.
Exam Cram and Texas Test August 17, 2008
Patrick Cass (Kerrville, TX)
While the book was not specific to the Texas Insurance exam, it did provide enough background to enable me to pass the Texas exam the first time. If you are new to the insurance industry, you should supplement this text with specific information on your state exam. Since I had previously held an insurance license this was a great review and covered some of the new areas. First timers should probably supplement this with an online course of study approved by their state. The exam, administered in Texas by Prometric services, has some questions that the book did not seem to cover in quite the same way. Study the sample questions and answer rationale carefully. Good luck.
