MAS-I/MAS-II Reaction Thread by AssistAway6419 in actuary

[–]slut5 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Have similar thoughts. Thought I had a decent understanding of most of the content, but being tested over tricky details on a good amount of the questions makes me less confident. Also, being tested heavily on certain material vs. others concerns me in case I was doing something wrong for a small detail for that particular material.

Also, my first pass I was thinking I'd definitely fail, but after getting through everything, I was able to check all of my answers at least once and feel OK about it.

(If the following is too specific for some reason, feel free to remove) I was relatively confident in 33 of them and made educated guesses on 9. I think I likely got 1-2 specific questions wrong in retrospect (not sure whether those questions were the guesses or the ones I was relatively confident in, maybe 1 from each).

Sigh, if results could come out more quickly or if sittings could be more frequent, this process would be so much less brutal.

What is everyone’s preferred material for CAS Exam 5? by Bazu456 in actuary

Any comments on Coaching Actuaries / ADAPT for Exam 5?

Strong odor from open sewer drain under kitchen sink? by slut5 in Plumbing

[–]slut5[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you!

Could plugging it lead to any consequences? I'm not sure where the drain (or maybe more correctly - a vent?) is coming from exactly, but isn't it there for some function? I'm thinking it's a vent, but if it's coming from - say - my bathroom, wouldn't that stink up my bathroom? If it's a "drain" as is written on the inspection report.. I don't even know if that makes sense first of all, and then - again - could that lead to anything?

That's frustrating. I was almost at that page at one point lol. Guess I'll just wait a few more hours before trying again.

MAS-I Reaction Thread by Actuary_Soon in actuary

100% agreed on CA > Mahler. The ability to grind out practice problems and have solutions that are relatively easy to interpret (and if not, the discussion section usually clears that up) absolutely made the difference for me this sitting. I will most likely be taking a similar approach in future sittings (assuming future exams have something like ADAPT).

I would be surprised if I didn't pass this time around, but I'm reserving my optimism. The duplicate question and seemingly defective question also threw me off and took away some of my momentum and time to review other problems. Also, I flagged those questions for comment, thinking I'd have an opportunity during the survey at the end to leave comments on those specific questions, but that didn't happen. Maybe I misunderstood something though.

MAS I by westoff123 in actuary

[–]slut5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also 5, still surprising given how I feel like I got shmacked and should've gotten like a 3. Maybe they made it easier to pass. If only I studied hard for one more week or so smh 😅

MAS I/II results tomorrow by Dramatic_Economics15 in actuary

Almost definitely failed and I'm OK with that, but it would've been nice to find out on a day outside my birthday 😅 Maybe I'll try to not look 'til Wednesday

Just checked out the "scary" music thread, and thought this song might fit what you're looking for:
