Great Value! Highly Recommend Kaplan
From my experience with other test takers when going through my insurance certification & licensing, Kaplan seems to be the BEST bang for your buck. Pros: Even the most basic package for property, casualty, life, or health have HUNDREDS of practice questions in the QBank. You can add on supplementary study materials (for some extra cash) like flashcard sets, so you can customize your learning experience to fit your needs. There are checkpoint quizzes and exams to track your progress. You can even see how much you need to study each day using their study calendar feature. I HIGHLY recommend based off of all these features alone as I haven't seen all of this shared with other certification course providers. That said... Cons: Not every course is built equally, even within the same company. I took the P&C as well as the L&H bundles for my state (KY) through Kaplan. Though the general study materials & available resources were the same, it was obvious to me P&C hadn't been updated in a while as the outline was not updated to match Kaplan's own manual. It referred to sections that either didn't exist or did NOT talk about the topic they claimed it did on the outline. Additionally, there wasn't nearly as much user-friendly guidance in the P&C portion as the L&H course. The L&H course's format feels great - streamlined, user-friendly, it's obvious where to go and what to do. The P&C doesn't hold your hand in the same way when telling you where to start or go next, so be ready for that if you decide to take the course.
