- "I wish to say thank you for your well prepared BattleActs materials. I used your materials for both exam 5 and 6 for this sitting and passed both. I failed exam 5 once and relied on other study material before. I can say the key factor for my pass is using your materials."
- "I think the videos were nice as a way to set up the articles. I found that the shorter run times were better – videos sometimes encourage passive learning which doesn’t benefit the student when preparing for these exams. I liked the balance between video watching, article reading, and problem practicing that each section had."
- "Hey Graham!!!! Thanks for creating such awesome material for Exam 5. Passed it on my first attempt with an 8. Thank you very much and keep going!!!"
- "This was my 3rd attempt for Exam 5; the previous two sittings I relied on *** study materials. Although helpful, I fell short during my first 2 sittings due to my inability to work quickly and efficiently through the exam. I feel confident with this sitting that I passed. Thank you for providing the resources/tools I needed to help me get to the next level of understanding, and the ability to translate this understanding into a more confident exam sitting."
- "BattleActs is definitely more engaging/fun. A manual is just text on paper, but I like that you guys offer something interactive."
- "Yes I would definitely recommend – it had a good mix of resources so that every type of learner would benefit. The videos were light enough but engaging and helped set the scene for the articles. The articles were concise when needed but provided excellent documentation and explanations when working through example problems. And there were plenty of practice problems available for me to use once I finished the articles, in order to reinforce the concepts and commit them to memory. I feel like BattleActs forced me to learn, rather than memorize. I will be able to use these concepts beyond the exam and within my job, which is a very good thing!"
- "I love the display that shows the number of days since the last time I completed a battlecard. This helps motivate myself to do it again if the days get too high."
- "I fell in love with BA since exam 6C (I did that before 5). It's very easy to study when I can just do the flashcards instead of having to go through all the words from the texts. I also like the ranking table for me to know if a chapter is relatively important so that I can allocate my study time more wisely."
- "BA is hands down the best study manual for upper exams available out there."
- "I like that the material is more summarized than other study guides - it eliminates the little details that you aren't likely to need to know."
- "I find the infinite calculation problems in the quizzes to be very helpful in getting familiar with the calculation part of the many reserving/pricing methods. The forum was also really helpful and provided timely responses, I was able to get many confusions cleared by asking questions on the forum. I would recommend BattleActs to my colleagues, as it provides in-depth coverage to the syllabus, adequate practice problems and good instructor support."
- "I really liked the points system. I often struggle with feeling like I was making progress, and points are a tangible way for me to feel like I’d accomplished something."
