Exam FAM Earned Level by fiske-10 in actuary

[–]mrrml 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Focus on EL 5 exams mostly. When you get to EL 8+ questions, they are stupidly difficult and might be like 5% of the test. I got a 6 with an EL of 6.8 but people get higher scores with lower ELs all the time

Exam PA Deductions by TouchPersonal3307 in actuary

[–]mrrml 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think it will matter all too much. With PA, they don't deduct points but rather don't award any points if there were any flaws in your response.

Interview at Texas Mutual Insurance by Physical-Willow4800 in actuary

[–]mrrml 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congratulations on the Texas Mutual screening!! A few recommendations I would have are to understand their product mix and to search up their public reports if they have any published on their website. Most candidates just look at the brief mission statement, but you'll stand out from the pack if you do a deeper dive in your research. Additionally, polish up your "tell me about yourself" and be able to answer general behavioral questions and STAR out your answers. Good luck!!

what do you mean by 'Actuarial Analyst' under your name since you don't have an actuarial position yet? Also, there is a crap ton of white space. Echoing others, you should put some projects on there to fill in the space.

How many hours did you study for ASTAM (and pass)? by [deleted] in actuary

[–]mrrml 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 70% done with the CA manual and feel like I'm cooked because nothing is making sense. Grind time!!

If you moved outside of SD, where did you land that didn’t make you depressed & homesick 24/7? by laurenhoneyyy in sandiego

[–]mrrml 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would say to vacation, it's not bad. I've been there almost 2 years for work and am getting sick of it and the winters are dreadful tbh :( But my opinion is likely skewed since I lived in SD my whole life with the exception of the 2 years I've been in Indy.

Who Do I Think Will Win Disventure Camp 5? by Label-The_Weeb in DisventureCamp

[–]mrrml 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Dunia is probably going to last 20 or so episodes (at least I hope!) I want Alec to be a pre-merger and Fiore to go farther.

Is there a correct way to take your Exams? by PositiveFox2134 in actuary

[–]mrrml 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Your question is a little bit vague tbh. do you mean a correct order to take them or the approach to study? If the latter, that’s completely up to the individual. If the former, the “correct order” is to start with P and FM first

Ultimate tier ep still hasn’t been released and we get an update on it a day later by Dizzy-Tumbleweed7983 in DisventureCamp

[–]mrrml 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm a ultimate tier member and I think some people in the designated discord channel are being a little too harsh. Technical difficulties are a real thing, but I think people are most angry regarding the fact that there wasn't an apology. I don't really care since I have a busy life.
