Easy to read and full of great information. Lots of easy to find tips and the review questions at the end of each chapter are reflective of real life situations.



The CD is the same as the book, which allows me to take either the CD or the book to work and leave the other at home to review.I would recommend this to anyone who wants to study for the licensing exam.

This should not be your only study choice. It is a general guide, state laws are not taken into account.

I found this book very easy to read and full of great infornation. It broke down a lot of the topics so it was easier to understand than the required GA insurance class room book. The only draw back I found is that it will not give specific information on your State. Basically, I used this book to study for my exam and I passed the first time.



I had no problems with the CD and I do strongly recommend this book as a easy to comprehend study guide.

BESIDES THE COMPANY BEING CHEAP AND LIMITING HOW MANY TIMES YOU CAN TAKE THE TEST (FLASH CARD INGESTING) YOU ARE NOT INFORMED OF THIS, TILL YOU OPEN AND USE THE CD. IMPORTANT CHAPTERS ON HOME OWNERS AND DWELLING ARE ILLOGICAL, CLUTTERED AND CONFUSING..AS ARE A FEW OTHERS. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS SOURCE FOR CONVIENCE IN LEARNING HAVING BOUGHT 2 OF THE COMPANIES BOOKS...BUT YES, IT IS CHEAPLY PRICED....VALUE???

I have purchased both the Life and Health as well as the Property and Casualty books from this publisher after taking an online course which I found to be a total waste of time and money. The books seem to be OK but I agree with some of the other reviews here about the books. The CD included which I thought would be great for practice test is limited to three tries of fifty questions. The thing that really surprised me the most was when I called the phone number in the help section on the practice CD the tech support person told me he could not help me. He said that the BISYS Educational Servies was no longer in existence and had not been in existence for over six years. He asked me when I had purchased the book and if I had purchased it as a used book in a used book store. Now I am writing this review in October 2009 and I purchased these books in July and August from another top online and bricks and mortar book store. I am writing this review so that anyone who may read this will be aware.

I borrowed the Passtrak Property and Casualty Insurance: License Exam Manual (Passtrak (Unnumbered)) 6th Edition of this book from the library and found it to be even more comprehensive than this Exam Cram which I also reviewed for the test.At first I was measuring how much was covered in this Dearborn Passtrak Manual and when I reviewed questions from Exam Cram I felt better about how I did and my ability to answer questions caused me to feel quite prepared.When I went back to review questions from this Dearborn PassTrak again, I was reminded how much more comprehensive it is.



All in all, for any shortcomings of this Dearborn Passtrak book has tougher questions and more of them so I found it to offer the best preparation among the material I reviewed.I was able to pass the General Lines TEXAS exam the first time.



Study well.

And prepare for a great harvest.

The book is very helpful after wasting 40 hours in a class by a doddering old man with outdated material. However, was extremely disappointed to find out my state - GA - isn't one of the states included in the practice exams on CD. Neither is Calif., Fla., Okla. or Wisc. - so be forewarned. Also don't see info on the HO 2000, which my other exam CD has several questions about.

Predicated upon the glowing description of the "Exam Cram Property and Casualty Insurance License Exam" test manual, I decided to purchase it to

augment other test guides in preparation for my upcoming Property/Casualty

Insurance Producer's exam.



I have no complaint with the book itself; with the exception of no state-specific material, it seems fairly comprehensive.



I do, however, have a serious complaint about the CD-ROM Exam Simulator

which is inoperable, based upon an evaluation generated by the CD itself,

indicating that all but one of the .dll files had not been loaded.



I contacted Pearson's (the publisher's) Customer Service department, and

was given several different options, one of which was to send (1) the original receipt from Amazon (fortunately, I made copies); (2) a Xerox of the back cover, showing the ISBN number; and (3) my name, address, and

phone number.



Trustingly, I sent these data, assuming Pearson would send me a fully-loaded CD-ROM which I could use on my computer.



Naturally, they did no such thing, instead, counselling me to "return the book to Amazon for a refund or an exchange." (I informed them that the fault lay with them - not Amazon - and exchanging the book might cause me to receive another CD-ROM that was equally defective.)



My last e-mail to them was March 26th; to date, I have not heard from Pearson, and probably never will.



I told them that it was foolish to incur the ill-will of a customer who

might have given them repeat business, but evidently, the customer's sensibilities (over a defective product) are of little moment to a publishing conglomerate.



I shall keep the book (because I need it), but the memory of their bad faith shall live on, in this negative review.



Take heed from my bad experience before you consider purchasing a book

with an Exam Simulator that can't be used - nor will the company have the graciousness, or the common sense, to replace.
