I am doing the same. I signed up for them a few weeks ago but I don't plan on getting into it much until I get my exam C grade. I think I passed but I want to make sure of it.
Thought it was challenging. It seemed like a lot of the questions had some shortcut method to them. Unfortunately I didn't have them all memorized.
I blind guessed on 9 questions (using C). Then...
I guess I am doin alright. Trying to nail down some of my weak spots. Can't wait for it to be over.
I'm almost finished with my first pass through ASM. I'm at (approx) page 800. This will be my second attempt for the exam so there were several sections I breezed through. I plan on going back...
I agree. I used the ASM manual and passed on my first attempt. It has tons of problems (more than I was able to do).
I was in a similar situation as you just a year and a half ago. I chose to pursue a techincal job (not requiring any actuarial exams) rather than an actuarial student position. I was hired by a...
If you haven't already, make sure you complete your VEE requirements while still in college. Check the soa website for a list of approved courses at your university.
I managed to get the double decrement one. You can back out q'(1) by knowing the relationship that p'(1) x p'(2) = pT
Well they released the exam and the answer key today. You can find it at

I think i got 22 out of 35. So basically I'll be sweating it out these next...
First of all, I beleive the requirement is a B- or equivalent so you probably need over 80%. The SOA has a list on their website of the approved courses and required grade. I don't know how far...
I have both the BA-II Plus and the TI-30X-IIS.
I would definately recommend the TI-30X-IIS for this exam. I've been using it the whole time I've been studying and it is definately more efficient...
I would submit your Econ courses for approval. It could have been the case that someone submitted only the upper level ones because thats what they took. I have VEE Econ credit for my school's...
Things are starting to come around. A little late, but nonetheless, I think I have a shot at passing. I took the Nov 05 exam and got a 23, which was the estimated passmark. Going back I found a...

I went through Mahler's Guide once. I'm going back and doing all the past exam problems. I took a practice exam to gauge my progress and I determined that I am in trouble as of now. I plan on...
Anyone else sitting for the exam on Nov 6th?
How's your progress?
There are many manuals to chose from. Use the search function to see what manuals people recommend.
It sounds like you have a great start on the material if you only have 3 chapters left. You have plenty of time to crank problems out. Which manual do you have? I had ASM and I did not do every...
I think 3 months is enough to prepare for exam P. There are some great study manuals out there. I would recommend picking one up. The popular choices seem to be Actex, ASM, and BPP. I would...
Spring 2006 edition. PM me with offers
Tomorrow hopefully.
Wandy vs. Chuck is gonna be amazing, however, I am picking Babalu to take down Chuck next ppv.
Just give it your best shot. You should definately buy a study guide ASAP if you haven't already. If you are serious about passing you will need to put in a lot of studying in the next month. ...
