Study Secrets Anyone?

I have 10 days till my property and casualty insurance producers exam. The exam is 150 questions long and 2.5 hours timed. Anyone have helpful study tricks or techniques? I NEED to pass this on my first attempt and it has a 39% pass rate on the first attempt. I’m freaking out a bit I am so worried about it. I gotta score a 70% to pass, phew this is a lot of stuff but I am glad I am not working at the moment so I can just study.

I used AI to create executive summaries and A to Z glossary of terms

Found it helped me memorise concepts etc

Try to find practice tests online or contact the insurance institute for practice tests and make flash cards out of the questions. Also be confident that atleast 20% of the questions will be common sense, and another 15% you can narrow down to a better than 50/50 shot. The next 35% will be from your studying.

Study in short bursts. Like 40 mins then 15 minute break and repeat this over and over a few times.

Take notes. Invest in highlighters. Flash cards. Ask for help if you need to.

Healthy lifestyle and supplement improved my memory but otherwise nothing helped much…maybe try accessing cobenfy? I heard it’s good for cognitive symptoms and they are testing it for dementia

Use numbers to list points to remember and also letters of the alphabet.

When I was in university I took lots of notes and rewrote things I could not memorize just by reading. By writing it stays better in my memory.

Pull a family member or friend aside after you’ve studied and see how effectively you can teach it to them without looking at the material. That always helped me.

Don’t cram. Study a little bit every day I made straight A’s in my journalism tests and this is what I did every day for a week before the exam I would study a little bit every day
