Looking at the syllabus for Course 2, did anyone else notice that we have already covered 13 out of the 16 assignments?

Yes... there is a lot more of Course 1 that would be new material, so it doesn't make sense we get credit for 1 but not 2.

But, since we have to do it, isn't it nice that it's mostly review? Should save a lot of time.

Agree with Button.

Very little to be gained from complainin' when it's a rather easy thing to just jump through that particular hoop, StS.

Yes - I'm not too happy about the old Exam 7 percentage of material being so low on this exam. But then again, I'm flying through the material with hardly much study time. I think this test is going to be a relative breeze.

I was hoping this module would have revised, up-to-date readings from the old 7 topics. Examples: the Schedule P, Schdule F, Notes, big yellow binder, etc. I did not expect to see all the CPCU material from old Exam 5 on here. This stuff was a pain in the neck to memorize then, and now I'm expected to do it all over again. Tempted to just take the exam and "wing it". I don't want to postpone studying for Fall exam just to study for this; every day I spend on this is one less day studying for the fall.

Take the practice exam at the bottom of the online course screen. If you can get well above 70% (maybe around 80%) on that without looking at the material again, I think you'd have a fair shot at passing. If you've been in the industry a while and have a grasp on a lot of the topics, this might be doable.

I haven't taken the sample exam online. I'll take the exam in June. Anyone in the same condition as I?

I took this exam on Tuesday. I studied for it all day Saturday, Sunday and Monday and that's pretty much it. And I'd be pretty surprised if I failed, but who knows.

I should note that I passed Old 5 and 6 last year and also finished up my CPCU last September so a lot of the material was still fairly fresh in my mind.
