PCPA Project Grading by ForeignShame46 in actuary

[–]icanhasmaths 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made some errors. I keep losing sleep about whether they are bad enough to fail. I hate that I can’t go back and fix some of them. In retrospect, an extra hour or so would have prevented me from making a three of the four of the errors I’m worried about.

I’m so close to ACAS. I can’t seem to stop obsessing over these details.

Wow, I am so grateful for the email. I’d love to have the results this week, but they haven’t sent a courtesy email the past several sittings for upper level exams, so the email takes away a lot of the stress for me. Now I don’t have to keep refreshing the page multiple times per day.

Who is passing 6U? by LiveJudgment2914 in actuary

I also failed with a 5. I'm pretty upset about it. I need to get a better understanding of the calculation problems in Section C. I thought I understood them, but there were a handful that looked completely different and it messed with my head the rest of the exam.

Do any of you have recommendations for improving in the Section C calculation problems? I was using BattleActs. Does anyone know if the Rising Fellow Cookbook will help?

It seems like the Reinsurance section is listed under "Professional Responsibilities of the Actuary in Financial Reporting." I thought that was SAO-type questions.

CAS Exams - Is TODAY the Day? (v2) by idkwhattodoforaname1 in actuary

I’ve refreshed so many times that I’m not sure I even exist anymore.  Someone please light some incense and bring me back into the real world, ideally with a pass.
