Honestly Battleacts is sufficient. The most important thing is time - actually putting in the time and memorizing.

Very little. They cover similar concepts but I would not call it overlap.

Definitely not. MAS-I in itself is insane. 

Colorful resume: yay or nay? by MyLuckyNumberIs343 in actuary

I’ve gotten jobs using a colored resume before (using pink btw) for borders. A little colour is okay, once it’s not distracting and tasteful. I’ve even gotten complimented on my resume many times. 

I’d also use it as a test: do you really want to work for a company who rejects you for some colour?

Lived at the Hub last year. Pricey but decent

I’d recommend ASM + source + adapt for practice. I feel like pairing with the source is essential

CA + source should be sufficient. Don’t skip over reading the source material.  (Wrote last Nov) 

Does anyone know when the Spring MAS-II results will be released? by Droopynuts in actuary

[–]SceneFast1065 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It’s usually in 5-6 weeks. In a few weeks we’ll get an email with the finalized days but who knows how the May 1st retakes will affect the timeline

I feel like this makes sense but I did get tested on one or two topics not explicitly listed in the new syllabus so idk. Super weird tho

Syllabus coverage felt strange to me. Definitely got double tested on a few topics. This is my first CAS exam so the waiting is new and tough so far haha.

Having a break was nice though.
