Study Aids for AU and CPCU

[loudmouth]

WHich exam prep is worth the money. Keir or The Burnham System?charges are reasonable for Keir is the Burnham System really worth the 300 bucks they want for each class?

I bought the "Smart" study aids that they offer with the texts. I've passed 5/8 of the CPCU courses so far. If you actually study then do the Smart study aids, I think that'd be more than enough.

I just used the AICPCU issued stuff. It worked fine. If you do the workbook and the CD-Rom with the practice tests, you'll be prepared.

I took the old 10 course route and never read the books. I just bought the keir guides and made outlines of the educational objectives they had in them. Then I took the sample test in the workbooks to make sure I could answer them. Passed all my tests on the first shot.

where do you order these books / cd's

Google the names with CPCU, I'm sure they'll come right up. In my opinion, they're overpriced...
