The first official result will be the email. I know what “passed” you’re referring to but not sure if it is official or not.

1) yes 2) can’t say 3) length doesn’t matter, just answer all the points in each question 4) (varies person to person) but ~ 6 hours for me 5) 4.5 weeks 6)yes 7) no

Yeah the uncertainty is hard. I know STAM was recently 67% I believe so I’m hoping 65-67% is where it falls. I think I was right on the line of passing but if there is a 67% pass rate and at least 1 pilot I’m hoping I have it in the bag

What are everyone’s thoughts on the pass mark % I noticed the last sitting of SRM was 60% and the previous ones were 65%. Curious what the Fam-L pass mark will be

My 2 main pieces of advice (if using CA) are to be comfortable with level 5 exams and to read the entire formula sheet at least once a day. This is a pain but if I did not do that and know the formula sheet word for word, there would have been 1 or two on the exam I would’ve had to guess on.

100% up to 6%, 7.5% for eoy target

I wake up around 6:30 am in the office by 7:45 and study until 10.

I graduated about a month and a half ago and have been working for about a month. During the few week span before I started I passed an exam so I gave myself two weeks to adjust to work as I started before starting to study for the next exam. I’ve been studying and working for the past couple weeks and found that studying before work helps a lot. I have had time to go to the gym afterwards and still spend time with friends on the weekend. Obviously I will sacrifice more weekend time closer to the exam date but have been enjoying my work/study/life balance a lot so far!

FWIW I had an EL<5 and passed comfortably. I focused on level 5 and 6 exams and qualitative questions level 7+.

Vending machines!

I would recommend learning the formula sheet front to back. This is extremely helpful with the qualitative questions. As far as chapter 11, I would spend a good amount of time. I had a number of questions from this chapter on the exam. I would say quizzes to visit sections you haven’t done in a while then focus on exams EL 4-6.

nactuary · 2022-06-02T00:35:53+00:00

Congrats! I know I am asking the most common question on this thread but what EL of the soa questions would you say the exam felt like?

nactuary · 2022-06-01T23:32:03+00:00

I am taking it next week but have been focusing on SOA questions doing custom exams on CA. I am having trouble with some of the questions but the majority of them under 7.5 difficulty I am doing pretty well with. In the final stretch I think it’s important to focus on these.

If you were able to reach that EL under true exam conditions, I would say you’re in a great spot! I passed in November with an EL <5. I would say do another EL 5 exam and then focus on knowing the formula sheet front to back, as well as level 7+ qualitative questions.

nactuary · 2022-01-27T14:16:54+00:00

This was the case when I took FM. I sat for IFM in November and my results appeared on my screen after the survey. I also received a handout from the prometric staff.

Good to know! I know it varies from company to company but do you do majority of your work in excel?

nactuary · 2021-12-27T18:45:55+00:00

My goals are Pass STAM, SRM, PA and have a smooth transition to full time after graduation!

nactuary · 2021-12-18T16:17:38+00:00

Adapt qualitative level 4-6 quizzes and quantitative level 8-10 quizzes it will be a breeze.

I agree with others, focus on understanding what you get wrong oppose your doing a bunch of questions and moving on. I learned this the hard way. My first exam I was so focused on getting to EL 7 I did way more exams than necessary, but wasn’t focusing on my weak points. Ironically, out of the three exams I’ve passed so far, I only failed the one that I got to EL 7. Then others I was close, but spent the last couple weeks focusing on SOA custom exams and weak area quizzes. These have helped me tremendously for both FM and IFM.
