How NOT to Pass Your CA P&C Exam

[fla2cali]

I recently took my CA p&C exam. I did pass, but barely.

How I studied:

• Didn't read the online material almost at all
• Only answered the quiz questions and looked up everything I didn't know (which was everything)
• Don't take advantage of the audio tutorials, or the video tutorials.
• Go over the practice exam quetions only once. Then just look at the ones you missed.
• Don't give yourself enough time to truly internalize the material. I gave myself almost...almost 2 weeks to study.
• Lastly, take your exam, and cross your fingers.

To say the least, I don't recommend doing it this way. I'm glad I passed, but I was pretty stressed out. I wish I concentrated more on Commercial, and everything that's entailed. Those were the hardest questions.

I'm actually going to go back look over some of the material.

Why did I do it this way? Because I'm starting with a new company, and training starts in October. I had to get this done fast, but I wish I had more time. I'm just happy I passed.

Well you passed it. Congratulation on that point.

I just passed today! Barely too. How great that you have training starting up! The lady at the testing place today told me a lawyer had taken the test and said it was harder for him than taking the bar exam

Congratulations!

I also have been doing Bar Exam Prep and trust me it’s truly hard to find right material for studies. I have found some online courses however, not sure if those are useful. Have given couple of them and felt good.

Hmmm, barely passed the exams.

That must explain all the agents that gave me grief when I was a claim rep.
