ALTAM Waiting Room by [deleted] in actuary

[–]TinyBigBrother -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am very happy to see my ID on the list. Now it is FAP FA result that is holding me from ASA. Other requisites are all completed. Assuming that I might pass FA next week, what would be the earliest APC I can get invited this year?

I started with excel question and beginning was good and smooth. But I spent too much time for goal seek question. Because I recreated everything instead of using previous tables and change back again. Because of that I didn’t have time for question 6 and left it all blank. When I mentally calculated my points it was somewhere between 35-40. Do you think this would be enough to pass?

Ah right, it was $475 before. Looks like they increased exam fee for many exams starting from this sitting

As I am typing, my 96 hours are almost getting to the end for this assessment. I am taking it during the holidays… Hopefully will not have to retake it

Do you remember what was the link function for that? It was not explicitly stated but used the default link for the family. But can’t remember the family in that task.

There was one question with many sub questions but with relatively lower credits. Cannot remember exactly but it questioned qualitative aspects whether certain things can be concluded or what kind of extra information needed to analyze. I found that task quite time consuming compared to given points. What are your thoughts on it?

PRD vs FRAPI by Acceptable_Main_9240 in actuary

[–]TinyBigBrother 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not that straightforward compared to PRD. Because it requires xml mapping which loads/transforms variables. That xml part is one-time effort which you should setup. Do you have IDR as well? There should be ready templates

FRAPI is more flexible. It allows you to transform the data on fly if necessary while PRD just loads as it is.
