Our course materials include General Knowledge National exam material and General Knowledge State Law exam material. HOWEVER, about 15-20% of your exam has content unique to your state AND you will need access from another source for that content. You will have state law materials that are unique to your state from your prelicensing course provider.

We recommend that you use our materials and then supplement with your education provider’s state law rules and regulations to best prep for the exam.

• Practice Questions Package ($69).

This package is designed for students who are already pretty confident in their understanding of the material and need that tiny push over the finish line.

Professor Furniss believes that if you need more than just a couple of points boost in your exam score, that it is worth the price difference to purchase this package. You will save enough money on one retest fee to pay for the extra cost of this package.

These Super Sheets (cheat sheets) were developed by Professor Furniss to condense reams of material into a few sheets for last minute test cramming; and his math and number sheets are designed so that the critical numbers are easy to memorize and math problems can be practiced so that you can ace your exam. We also provide outstanding service with 60-day access.

Our National Practice Questions Package includes access to the test bank only. The test bank does contain all of the same test questions as our National Exam Prep Package. And, you can practice questions in Exam Review Mode or Exam Simulation Mode, or both. Practice Questions Package provide you with:

• Exam Review Mode, designed to allow you to practice multiple choice questions like the ones on your real exam and receive instant feedback on each question along with answer explanations so you are not left wondering why you missed the question.
• Exam Simulation Mode, which provides the same questions found in Exam Review Mode, but timed, like the real exam (our test bank is one the most comprehensive and well written test banks that we are aware of).
• The Practice Questions Package does not include our manual, Quick Review Slides with Rapid Fire Q&As, or Super Sheets.
• 60 days’ access.

If you want Super Sheets in addition to our Practice Questions, you should purchase our National Practice Questions PLUS Package. If you want all of our learning tools, which we highly recommend, you should purchase our National Exam Prep Package.

Both the Super Sheets and manuals are PDF format and printable. We just ask that you honor our copyright and single use license and only use our materials for your own exam prep. This allows us to keep our prices competitive for future individuals like you.

With the National Exam Prep Package, you will receive access to two great digital manuals – one covering national materials and one covering general state rules and regulations. Both are in electronic, PDF format and are downloadable and printable. You are free to have your local copy shop print and bind a copy for you. Please note that we do not include our manuals with our Practice Questions Package or our Practice Questions PLUS Package, only with the National Exam Prep Package.

When using our materials to help you pass your exam, a certification of completion is not issued. Study our materials at your own pace and take the exam when you are scheduled with Pearson VUE. No certificate will be given from us. However, you will have received a needed certificate from your West Virginia approved prelicensing education provider.

Use us to help push you over the top on the exam. That’s where our materials and learning tools shine.

One size does not fit everyone. While we do provide a suggested pathway: Read the chapter, then go through Quick Review Slides with Rapid Fire Drills, then go through the test bank for that chapter using the Exam Review Mode. Finally, do a quick read over that chapter’s Super Sheet and take our chapter questions in a timed exam (Exam Simulation Mode). Having said all of that, it is really up to you. You are free to move around our material with no restrictions in order to find a learning pathway that works best for you.

If you purchase our National Exam Prep Package, and you are just beginning the study of insurance, you should consider spending approximately 3 weeks. Some students report being ready in one week; others take 5-6 weeks. We think that planning a solid daily schedule over 2-3 weeks works for most students. If you just need a small bump in your exam score, you may be able to “fast track” your studies using one or more of our learning tools. You should use our materials after you have completed your required prelicensing education from an West Virginia approved provider. Then, in order to either fully prep for the exam the first time or to help you over the hump in the event that you are falling short of a passing score, you should consider using our materials.

Our focus in West Virginia is to help you pass your insurance licensing exam the fastest and easiest way possible. We have not applied to become an approved prelicensing education provider in West Virginia. Purchasing our materials does not meet your prelicensing education requirement. Use our materials with the state specific content from your prelicensing education provider to prep for the exam and get the extra edge needed to pass the exam.

You can prepare for the exam many different ways with our course materials. Our courses allow you to move forward, backward, skip material, and study the way you want to. You can focus on your weak areas if you wish. Or, review the Quick Review Slides on areas that you are strong on while digging deeper into our material for areas that you need to obtain more in depth understanding.

Click through – skip around – study what you are having most difficulty with. With our materials, you are free to be in control of how you approach your studies – choose the learning pathway that works best for you.

Our National Exam Prep Packages include every exam prep tool we offer in a single package. Specifically, they include a(n):

• Easy To Read Manual.  Our course packages include a comprehensive, yet easy to read, manual with important test points highlighted, each paragraph star ranked based on topic importance, critical test points identified, and loads of examples.

  Here is what Joe, one of our very satisfied customers from Virginia, had to say  about our manual:
  “Sorry I have not been able to get back to you, I have been really busy trying to run one business I own while studying for the insurance exams and getting everything in place with the insurance business purchase. I read your entire book in 3 days. Not only to get as much material in my head as possible, but because it was actually interesting reading. I don’t know how you do it, but your books are so much easier and more enjoyable to read than anything else I have put in my hands. I also have two other well-known companies’ books that I have used in getting my license but there is absolutely no comparison in the books. I am not just saying it to be nice. I hope everyone is able to find you on the internet because not only are you a great group of guys, your books are incredible. You will hear more from me and I WILL be sending many more people your way. I will not forget what you guys did for me. If you ever want a testimonial for your advertising let me know, I would be honored to share my experience with everyone. Thanks once again.″
