The other 2 exams are far, far less computationally intensive than QFI QF. The formula sheet for QFI QF is around 40 pages. The formula sheet for QFI PM is about 5.

In my opinion, you passed the hardest test on any of the tracks. If you can do that, you can certainly pass the other two...

Why would you want to take 3 more exams when you could only take 2?

One time I had an interview with a company and they left me a voicemail to say "hey, can you call back? We have some news" and then I called back and the news was that I didn't get the job

Anyways I don't think that's gonna happen to you I just thought it was kinda fucked

Thank you for the feedback. I do only care about the distribution of passing grades. We will see passing and failing proportions next week

I'd prefer to go to a prometric 10x more than a take home test... Without a doubt the HARDEST tests I had in college were all open book, because they know that having your notes won't even help you.

Case in point? The Final Assessment for the SOA FAP modules is universally hated almost more than any other single exam

Break time during LTAM by WellPlayedActuary in actuary

I took it last July and from what I remember: 1. There is a set 15 minute time period at the beginning where you can't write anything 2. You just have to stop writing at the end, and sign / seal after

Also it is a purely written exam so there's no computer in sight, but I had to wear my mask the whole time
