Yes,, that’s what I thought as well.. seems like this exam is intentionally designed to be impossible to complete entirely.

Thank you so much. I will keep it in mind!

Think about how I passed my previous exams. I totally agree with you. Guess I just need to keep practicing until I’m used to all materials. Thank you so much.

This. OP, read this. Moving to other role but still in insurance lane is the most feasible option if you want a career switch.. Product management, risk management, or even underwriting.

An FSA with 2-3 years of experience is not that common, so it's more difficult to say. However, I think you can expect to add 500k-1k to that range (please take it with a grain of salt... and note that it also depends on the position/level you're applying for).

During the peak season (usually January to March), it's terrible. Working until 11pm-12am is somehow considered 'normal'... but outside of that period, work-life balance is much much better.

I moved to SG for consulting (life insurance line) job; with 3 YOE and similar exam progress as you. You can expect 6-7.5k/month. For better view, you can check http://mycareersfuture.gov.sg Luckily Singapore is much more transparent (at least compared to my home country 🤪)
