How long will the exam last? 3 hours for 30 questions?
Thanks.

According to the instructions to candidates, and the SOA & CAS websites, it's a 3 hour exam. I don't believe there's been an official publication of the number of questions, but 30 seems reasonable.

The official news release concerning exam P in August says it will have 30 problems then. There was no such official figure for the May exam, but it is very likely, in my opinion, that it will have 30 questions.
