Ways to work through it

The full test comes first because it is the one that tells you where you stand, and it is free here. A test with no sourced question count gets no full length run rather than an invented one.

One subject at a time

Every question here was written against the handbook and the legislation that Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) publishes, and every one carries the reason for its answer and the section it rests on.

All four figures are counted from the questions themselves when the site is built, rather than typed in by hand.

None of them is copied from another practice site, and none is generated from an unnamed source. If a question looks wrong to you, it may be wrong: say which one and what you think it should say, through the corrections route on the methodology page, and it gets checked against the source rather than argued about.
