What you get once you sign in, beyond the questions themselves.

Read aloud ICWIM

Hear any ICWIM question and its explanation read out in an AI-generated voice: in Practice, in your answer review and in Formula Lab. Never in the Master Exam, which stays like the real paper.

Readiness score

A score out of 100 built from your own answers: how much you have practised, how often your first answer is right, whether that holds across all eight chapters, and your Master Exam results. It says Ready only when every requirement is met. It is Bourse Prep's own standard, not a prediction of your exam result.

Formula Lab ICWIM

25 lessons and 177 drills covering the calculations in the ICWIM syllabus, each taken from the formula to a worked answer, with the slips that cost marks.

Ask Bourse Prep ICWIM

Ask about a chapter, a concept or a formula and get an answer from Bourse Prep's own material, written for the ICWIM syllabus.

How sure are you?

Before each Practice answer is checked, you say whether you were Confident, Unsure or Guessed. Lucky guesses show up as gaps instead of hiding behind right answers.

Focus while you answer

While you answer, in Practice and in the Master Exam, the page around the question goes dark and only the question stays lit. There is less to pull your eye away.

Rules Lab UAE FRR

Rules that sound alike, side by side; decision paths for what a firm must do next; procedures in order; and a trainer for the figures the exam material states. Open Rules Lab

Update notes UAE FRR

Where UAE law has changed since the exam material, 134 questions carry a separate Update note. The exam answer is never silently replaced by today's law.

Why Bourse Prep exists

Created from a real candidate's experience

Created by Usman Ali Khan, a UAE financial services professional working in the market since 2006. Senior Business Development Manager, MDRT qualifier and FLMI, leading a team of consultants in investment and protection planning.

  • UAE financial services
  • FLMI
  • Team leadership
  • ICWIM qualified
"I prepared for the ICWIM qualification for almost a year and studied through two different institutes. Even with that support, I struggled to find a practical system that showed me what I understood, where I was weak, and whether I was genuinely ready for the exam. Bourse Prep grew from the study method I eventually created for myself and have used throughout my own preparation. I am now preparing for further CISI qualifications and sharing this platform so other candidates can benefit from the same structured approach."
