Study Tips
Alice's Pro-Tip: Appendix E is mainly for review and extra practice for material covered in chapter 9 of the main part of the Werner. |
Forum You can probably skip this chapter without missing anything. If you don't want to skip, spend 15 minutes looking over the 2-page exhibit (link further down.) It's a good, quick test to see if you have an overall understanding of the pure premium method. If you can understand the exhibit "at a glance" and see where all the different pieces fit, then you're ready to slay th beast.
The exam problem in the BattleTable is also a good review and may take another 15 minutes to solve.
