Tips on cramming

9 Upvotes

I’m a younger actuary in training and graduated college early so I have some time on my hands. I just passed exam P 3 days ago, and I scheduled FM a little too close for my comfort (and I can’t change it). I haven’t started studying at all but scheduled my exam for August 17th😩

Any advice on cramming for this? It’s not the end of the world if I don’t pass since I have my course pack for another 6 months. I’m just wondering if anyone has successfully crammed?? Also how did you do it🤣

Job / Resume Resume feedback and advice

Hello, I’m looking to get some criticism on my resume. I’ve sent out to people and they, for the majority, liked it. I’ve attached my draft, the analyst intern position is now content developer.

I’m eager to get into the field, and I feel I’m qualified for it. But if my resume is throwing recruiters off I’d like to know. Thanks in advance.

Exams CFE101 Study Materials

5 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm about to study CFE101, and I decided TIA as my study method.

However, I was wondering whether I should buy Study Notes from SOA and all the books on the FSA book list?

If so, all the followings are needed? or Study notes include the books on the list?

As it's my first FSA exam, I'm a bit confused :(

  1. TIA
  2. Study Notes (Complete or Revision?)
  3. Books on the list: Financial Enterprise Risk Management, Sweeting, P. and Quantitative Enterprise Risk Management, Hardy, M., Saunders, J.

Thanks in advance!

Exams FSA exam rankings

Upvotes

How would people generally rank the FSA exams they’ve taken in terms of difficulty? Within the bounds of what is allowed, obviously.

Hard to compare tracks but looking for a general sense aimed at those who need one elective to be done!!

Exams Which final FSA exam to take?

3 Upvotes

So due to the 3 module = 1 exam credit, I only have one exam left after taking both ILA exams. I was wondering what makes the most sense after ILA? I kind of want to just take the highest pass rate exam, but I more so want to take an exam relevant to my current path. That would be CP 341 but its not available in November. Are there any others closely related to life and anns? GI seems related but might be too general to help. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I failed the recent Final Assessment and am waiting for the solutions to be released. I plan to retake sometime in the next few weeks. Anyone want to do a discord or something? I think collaboration is OK?
