Ad Banker made for an effective textbook and material reference. It fell short when it came to test-taking preparation as its limited bank of questions and question wording format does not equip students of the more conceptual-focused licensing tests, such as the SIE or Series 6/7. Used in compliment with another Q & A bank for testing preparation, such as Kaplan, would be a good strategy as opposed to relying solely on AD Banker.

The platform has a strong tendency to freeze or "lock" in the middle of chapter exams or comp tests, not only does this cause frustration, but it also runs down the timer on said exams, and comps. At least 20% of the information is inaccurate about current policies. I have marked at least 10-15 typos per program (SIE, 6, 63). There are typos in the exams and comps as well, which causes extreme confusion when trying to understand a question. The feedback that you receive after you finish a chapter exam is also inaccurate most times. What I mean by this, is sometimes the feedback will take you back to a random section of the chapter (not the specific part of the chapter that correlates to the question being referenced), which causes confusion and frustration.

The material is insufficient. Instructors don't have enough time to teach the lessons. which leaves students to figure out most of the work on their own. There also appears to be zero quality control for the instructors and they can do whatever they want and say whatever they want during class. If you use AD Banker, you must also be comfortable with using outside sources to supplement what you learn. There are also things on the exams that AD banker completely did not cover. They also have no way to control if instructors show up to tutoring. When the instructor misses the tutor session, they blame the student. 10/10 would not recommend it. My only reason for giving two stars is because I had one Great tutor. besides that, I can go on for days with the list of mishaps and unprofessional behaviors.

I like the way that AD Banker supports you while you are learning as well as when you are having to continue your education.

A.D.Banker was instrumental in passing my life insurance license exam. Almost if not all the information provided to me was part of the exam, and the final exams were almost identical to the real test preparing me for the real test when the time came. I would use A.D.Banker again if available.

Honestly, this program is all you need. Many folks stated they needed to buy outside resources in order to pass. I only utilized AD Banker and passed all 4 exams on the first try (SIE, 6, 63, IL Life). I was completely new to the banking industry as I came from a science background. As long as you put the effort in with AD Banker you should be successful.

Great detailed key points. Good amount of primary points and quizzes I took each chapter were in actual tests

After participating in a different company's training program, my experience with A.D. Banker was incredibly disappointing. Did it have all the necessary information for the exam in question? Yes. Did it present that information in a digestible, easy-to-absorb, effective manner? Absolutely not. AD Banker simply did not hold a candle to the other training program, or other e-learning content in general, for that matter. The pros: - Contained the necessary information to complete the target exam. The cons: - Information was drab and repetitive. - First, I'd read through a series of slides, then watch unengaging videos which recapped that info. Followed by some practice questions. This style does not encourage retention nor comprehension, and in 2023, it really seems like the bare minimum when it comes to e-learning content. - The materials did not do a good job of adequately preparing me for how much of the exam would be focused on certain areas. And the only reason I passed, was because I found that info elsewhere and studied accordingly. - The information was presented in only one of 3 ways. The lack of variety made it incredibly hard to get through and unengaging. - This program requires a student who is already proficient at test taking and study habits. For everyone else, the AD Banker program did not give any insights or tips on how to be successful. - There was no adequate and accessible way to review content, besides scrolling back through the slides one by one. In a study program like this, this fact is simply unacceptable. This made it incredibly challenging to go back through and review concepts and topics. I can't help but notice that AD Banker does not disclose their student's pass rates. After participating in this program, this is not at all a surprise, as I'm sure it's pretty low. As one who has made my own e-learning courses, this program truly is the absolute bare minimum for an ecourse in 2023. Everything about the course feels unengaging, outdated, and low-effort. I would never recommend a program like AD Banker's to anyone who wants a quality learning program.

This program was an efficient way to handle CEs. I forwarded an error and received a prompt response concerning it. I will use them again if allowed.

It would be nice if there were examples that apply the concepts learned.

The way the study material is taught doesn't directly correlate with the actual exam. The instructors may teach as if it's a refresher course which can be difficult to follow if one has never had any experience. Lastly, I would suggest encouraging study at home and possibly outside material. This was something we were asked not to do, however, those in my class who did passed on their first attempt. Those who did not, took the exams multiple times.

Great program to pass the necessary exams. I wish they had more chapter questions for each chapter to help with the studying process. Having more questions after each section would help me learn the material more efficiently in my opinion.

Helpful that it keeps your place each time you log out to be able to start and stop at any point and progress bars are helpful to plan out your time.

I feel as though AD banker is not doing the right thing when it comes to learning the material, I am memorizing all of the quiz questions and comp questions rather than actually grasping the actual concept. I have had to use other resources and studying materials to be able to gain more knowledge and more real life examples . I also dont like the way the comprehensive exams are set up. It does show the chapters I am not doing well in which is good but , it should take those chapters and make a comprehensive exam on those chapters were scoring low in , instead of just repeat questions on multiple exams.

A really useful source of information! I used this course through my employer in order to pass an insurance licensing exam, and the quizzes and tests on AD Banker were tough, but tough enough to prepare me adequately. I do think that there could be more visual resources in the courses, and maybe some more varied methods of communicating information; I personally always found the examples provided the most helpful in understanding the concepts presented!

Why am I helping someone study and the information you are teaching 2 months after I took the course, is different from what I learned? An example That I copied word for word from your course, "Fire Department Service Charge – Provides, as an additional amount of insurance, up to $1,000 for the payment of fire department service charges when the department is called to protect insured property. No deductible applies to this coverage." Yet in the new course, you state that its limit is 500$ and not $1000. Whats going on? This is just one of the MANY differences.
