In regard to "Exam Cram, Life and Health" I would recommend this book to my adult children if they want to pass the California exam. In addition to being a great test preparation book, I was able to get my computer to read the book to me, by using Adobe and Microsoft text-to-speech programming, which is free to the general public. This book was much better than the text provided by the school. It even includes information needed to open my own business.
Good luck, Bob.

When I decided to make a career change, I didn't have the luxury of taking a lot of courses and time to study. I needed to jump right in and start working as an assistant. I couldn't without my Group 1 license. I finished the book in one week, practiced the tests on the CD and passed the exam the first time.

The book is an easy read, although there are a couple of technical areas which could use a little more depth. The chapter tests help point out areas to review and the CD was a big help going back over the entire book.

All in all, it was worth the price.

It coverd the same stuff as my course material, but in some cases it was easier to understand and it had additional test questions included to help me study. I passed the test the first time.

great format and actually interesting to read. This subject cant be broken down and organized any better. Each topic explained well, and given quick examples, which makes it much easier to understand. Short exams after each chapter, which helps reinforce your learning. CD included to practice like the actual exam - what else could you want.

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.

Thank you so much to the authors of this exam prep book from Bisys. I used this book exclusively to study for the California Life-Agent exam and I passed on my 1st attempt on Jan 28th, 2010. I also used flash cards & a CA insurance law study guide that I purchased from AD Banker in conjunction with this book. I read every chapter, took each end of chapter exam and completed the 2 end of book exams and the final exam in the CD that comes with the book. The book exams match very closely the wording you will encounter in the Life-Agent exam and I highly recommend this book.

I have several different resources I'm using to study for my life insurance test and what I was looking for was a book that could give me a feel for the insurance business as a producer and one who really likes helping people. This book does that and more and makes you understand what a great field this is and how you can make peoples lives better by providing this service. You have to go for it and this book can help you for sure. Great book!

This book had a lot of useful information really more than I need to pass my exam. I did like the feature to be able to practice quizzes to test my knowledge and I still refer to this book from time to time. I won't say that it helped passed my exam

I've used this and lend it to budding Life and Health Insurance Agents. It has helped many of my agents pass the test, and It's about as good a book & CD resource for the Life and Health License Exam as one can get.

Book is quite boring, but then again most insurance texts are, however it is easy to understand and very thorough. Usually when you pass your insurance exam, you forget everything you learned the second you walk out of the test site, but not only did I pass the test the first time, I retained most of the information because it teaches you how to prepare for the test through practice chapter quizzes, final tests and even a CD for further exam simulation. There is also a pull-out cheat sheet to study right before you enter the test site. I took the exam in Wyoming and even though I studied very little of the Wyoming statutes, passed the test easily with the material covered in the book. The practice exams questions were worded similarly to the actual exam and covered the same material and more.
