Battleacts is here to help you prepare for both the syllabus content and the exam environment. With the CAS move to Computer Based Testing (CBT) with Pearson VUE we're providing Excel files which resemble your exam day experience. As more information is made available about the testing experience we'll update the files accordingly.
'''Step 1. Build a solid understanding of how to solve exam problems '''
* Our OneStop PDF contains the essential problem types with step-by-step detailed solutions
* Our companion OneStop Excel files contain all the problems from the above PDF. There's a version which includes the solutions and another which is ready for you to practice with.

To get the most out of these files you should attempt each exam under timed conditions and then grade yourself carefully and harshly. The solutions provided are concise and contain all details; this may be more than needed on the actual exam but will help you understand the problems better. Sometimes the CAS accepts alternate solutions, so make sure you read the examiner's report too - especially if your answer doesn't match. Lastly, the examiner's report is a great source of information about things the CAS '''didn't''' award credit for - read these carefully and relate them back to the question to avoid wasting time on BattleDay.
'''Step 4. Practice Exams'''
* Two original practice exams and one hybrid CAS exam are available with quick and easy access at your fingertips. The hybrid CAS exam is a compilation of released CAS problems which aren't in the Battlecards. It should give you a solid feel for how the CAS writes exam questions while letting you practice with unseen material in an exam-like environment.

=='''<span style="color:red;">Step 1: </span>'''Step-By-Step Solutions==
Our Fundamentals ToolKit PDF contains the core problems and detailed step-by-step solutions in this file.  


=='''<span style="color:red;">Station 2: </span>'''One-stop PDF==

Our one-stop PDF contains the core problems and detailed solutions in a single file so you can quickly refresh your memory on a calculation. Use this in conjunction with the web-based templates or Excel files to help you remember the next step.

After practicing problems for a while you can find yourself memorizing the numbers rather than understanding the steps. That's where BattleActs' web-based templates come in &mdash; we generate infinitely many versions of a problem so you focus on the steps involved.


Download the Excel file below to use with the web-based templates. In your browser, navigate to the web-based template you want to study and then open the Excel file to the same problem. Highlight the problem in your browser and copy it before pasting using "Match Destination Formatting" into the highlighted cell within the spreadsheet. Voila! You can now solve the new version of the problem in Excel and then type your answer(s) into the browser to grade it. Repeat as many times as you want to practice the problem.

After practicing problems for a while you can find yourself memorizing the numbers rather than understanding the steps. You'll gain a better understanding of the underlying concepts by applying them to different scenarios. Use our web-based templates to generate infinitely many versions of core problems. You can highlight the problem in your browser and copy/paste it into an Excel spreadsheet. Once you've solved the problem, type your answers back into the browser to have your solution graded.

These are Excel files of the PDFs contained within the wiki articles. You may find it helpful to read the solutions in Excel as you read the wiki article so you can audit the formulas to improve your understanding. Later, you can review the material by using the problem only version to build familiarity with the material in Excel.

To get the most out of these files you should attempt each exam under timed conditions and then grade yourself carefully and harshly. The solutions provided contain all of the details; this may be more than needed on the actual exam but will help you understand the problems better. <!--Sometimes the CAS accepts alternate solutions, so make sure you read the examiner's report where available too - especially if your answer doesn't match. Lastly, the examiner's report is a great source of information about things the CAS '''didn't''' award credit for - read these carefully and relate them back to the question to avoid wasting time on BattleDay.-->

Step 2. Drill to crush problems on exam day

  • Use our web-based templates to generate an infinite number of problems
  • With practice, you'll become more efficient and accurate on exam day

Step 3. Practice in an Excel/CBT like environment

  • An Excel file is provided for each source reading. It contains key practice problems to help you hone your skills.

Step 4. Practice Exams

  • Two original practice exams and one hybrid CAS exam are available with quick and easy access at your fingertips. The hybrid CAS exam is a compilation of released CAS problems which aren't in the Battlecards.

You'll gain a better understanding of the underlying concepts by applying them to different scenarios. Use our web-based templates to generate infinitely many versions of core problems. You can highlight the problem in your browser and copy/paste it into an Excel spreadsheet. Once you've solved the problem, type your answers back into the browser to have your solution graded.
