While this course does cover all of the same content that will be on the exam, and the same content as other study material providers, we organize our course in a slightly different order. This is done intentionally to improve the ease of studying and comprehension. This is why you will notice our course is only six chapters whereas other study material providers often offer eight to ten chapters. We cover the same content, the only difference is we arrange the topics and summarize the content into fewer chapters for ease of user experience and comprehension.

TESTIMONIALS
I studied only 2 to 3 weeks per exam
“If you’re looking for a worthwhile alternative to combing through the textbooks, look no further. The interface is simple to use, and the information is streamlined and presented in an efficient manner. I studied an average of only 2-3 weeks per exam, and I felt well-prepared for each. AssociatePI is a total game changer. 10/10 would recommend.”
John D. Lloyd – Underwriter
Passed CPCU® 500, CPCU® 520, CPCU® 530, and CPCU® 540 with AssociatePI
Translated in an easier to understand format
“I ran into a brick wall with Finance and Accounting (CPCU® 540). There were so many formulas to comprehend and memorize, I just felt overwhelmed with all the material. Unfortunately, I took my exam and was unable to pass it my first go through. As you may know, the exams are not cheap, and I was determined not to waste my money on a failed attempt again. That’s when I stumbled across AssociatePI. I couldn’t have been more pleased. They were able to condense the information down and able translate it in an easier to understand format. I found this an excellent tool, and would recommend to anyone looking for an edge to get over the hump. No testimonial would be complete without the results; I passed!”

Best thing I could have done
After some back and forth on whether to purchase the exam package I decided to take a chance and purchase the service. It was the best thing I could have done.They break down the topics well and take you step by step through all the material. Then the full practice tests give you a great idea of where you stand come test day. When I took the test I did not know what to expect but to my surprise the questions were worded almost identically to those of the questions on Associate PI. I passed the CPCU® 500 exam with ease thanks to this website. I have since passed the CPCU® 520 using this site as well. The way to pass these exams is by practicing as much as you can and this website makes it easy. I would recommend every CPCU® student take advantage of these test banks, they are truly better than anything else I have seen.
I wouldn't have passed without the practice exams and online course
I used The Institutes textbooks and later switched to your online courses. I wouldn’t have passed without the practice exams and online course, the textbook did not prepare me for my exam.
Huge help in better preparing me
Thank you for the emails and videos on YouTube. They were a huge help in better preparing me for the CPCU® exam. Also, I was able to print out what sections I scored the lowest to help focus my studies. Thanks for the tips!
Awesome community
Jake, thank you very much for your helpful e-mails. I found myself in the exact situation yesterday, unable to understand the material and taking too long to study, it was an eye opening experience. I’ve taken your advice used the practice exams to prep myself for the CPCU® 500. Thank you very much for establishing an awesome community.
Easily broke down the material
Course provided a simple summary that easily broke down the material
This was the best thing to feel confident going into the test
This was the best thing to feel confident going into the test. There is no better boost in confidence than getting practice questions correct.
The test questions were great
The test questions were great. I love the copious amounts of practice questions
Thanks so much!
thanks so much! I’ll definitely be using Associate PI when it comes time to take my other 5 exams (hopefully my employer will be paying for my study materials by then). Thanks again!
Scored 90-100 on the exam!
Jake, Thanks for the replies and practice questions. It was helpful to get another crack at another practice exam before taking the real thing this afternoon. I scored 90-100 on the exam! Much thanks for the service and will be purchasing future exam question packages.
Study guide helped me to focus on the key areas!
Having the study guide laid out before hand was very beneficial because it helped me to focus on the key areas!
Easy to follow and easy to pass
Undoubtedly, the best part was the streamlined process. Easy to follow and easy to pass.
CPCU 500
Loved everything about this site and what it has to offer. Took the test the first time through that other website and was overwhelmed with fluff to actually understand what I needed to. Jake’s study materials and relevant practice exam questions were what helped me to victory this time around. Have been trying to get all of my coworkers to make the jump also! Actually excited about the next test.
Very concise and efficient for studying!
Very concise and efficient for studying! If you’re very detail-oriented, it’s easy to get lost with all of the details in these exams. This help sort out what details were truly important.
I passed, not with a super score
I was so scared, but I passed. I did also use the smart quiz me app from the institutes and used that in unison with the practice exams that came with my course. I didn’t get a super high score, but I passed. I recognized the questions and was able to answer enough correctly. I signed up for the 520. Lets see how it goes.
