THE PROBLEM WITH EXAM PREP
The real cost of
getting it wrong
Most exam prep tells you how much you've studied. None of it tells you whether you'll pass. That uncertainty gap is the real problem. And when you find out the answer on exam day, the cost of being wrong is specific.
ReadyEngine™ exists to close that gap. Your ReadyRating™ tells you when the data says go. Not when you've finished the course. When you're ready to pass.
THE REAL COST OF “LET’S SEE HOW IT GOES”
$475
First attempt fee. Paid to CIRO before you sit, regardless of preparation level.
$300
Retake fee. Charged for each second and third attempt, plus lost time and delayed registration.
6 mo.
