Success partners… stories from real experiences

My sincere thanks and appreciation to Sarh for their efforts in preparing us for the exam. Thank God, I passed all three parts on the first try thanks to the comprehensiveness of the electronic question bank and its coverage of all topics, which helped me go into the exam confident and ready.

The course and studying the question bank made me feel that the actual exam was just another study session at home, as there is a very high degree of similarity in the pattern and concepts of questions between the real exam and Sarh’s electronic question bank.

Taking the course in Arabic saved me a lot of time; it was comprehensive and clear, and I didn’t need any other source. This allowed me to prepare for the first exam in just one month and pass it on my first try.

‘Allam’ is a smart assistant that has read the three CIA books and their question bank. You ask it in Arabic about any concept or question, and it explains based on the material, and builds a study plan that adapts to your progress, pace, and weak points.

The curriculum consists of three digital books that are read within the SarhOnline platform, with the option to order printed copies for an additional shipping fee that varies by delivery address. You choose the version (paper or electronic) from the product page when purchasing.

The digital books are valid for 12 months, and the question bank (including the Allam assistant) is valid for 18 months on the SarhOnline platform. The account can be used from one device per user to protect copyright.
