LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR STORY
Here is what some of our past customers have said about BattleActs:
"A mentor of mine strongly recommended this study manual and I am glad I trusted his advice. The study manual is well organized, provides lots of past exam practice, and focuses on the important parts of the exam. Questions related to the exam material are answered quickly."
"BattleActs is definitely more engaging/fun. A manual is just text on paper but I like that you guys offer something interactive."
"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."

How is CAS Exam 5 different than other actuarial exams?
CAS Exam 5 requires a deep understanding of the concepts and to be able to apply these concepts quickly on exam day. The way to reach this mastery is to thoroughly learn the material and to practice, practice, practice. We are the only study guide that provides an infinite number of calculational problems as our web-based platform randomly generates numbers for optimal learning.
Do I need to purchase a study guide or will reading the source material and doing past exams be adequate?
A study guide will help you learn the content efficiently and effectively. Most of the source material is not difficult but there is often more detail than is necessary for the exam. BattleActs streamlines the material into a series of wiki articles that emphasize the types of questions that have historically appeared on exams. Also, the original source texts do not have practice problems like the ones that appear on the exam. BattleActs addresses this need with quizzes, flashcards, Excel-based practice problems, and an infinite supply of randomly generated, computer-scored web-based problems.
Is this your first upper level exam?
Writing your first upper level exam can be daunting. Unlike lower level exams, Exam 5 is an essay style exam where the emphasis is on understanding and recall of information. Questions are broader in scope and often require interpretation in addition to the basic numerical answer. Our articles are written to teach concepts and help achieve in-depth knowledge. You will also build retention and recall of the material with our online quizzes.
Will your study platform help me create a study schedule?
BattleActs shows you where to start and how much time to spend on each topic. Feel in control from day one because we've done all the preliminary organizing for you. Use our tips to easily create a study plan that works with your
