The Failing Actuary Challenge 😋 I'm a qualified Associate Actuary and failed 20 exams to get here. Rules: Only qualified Actuaries can participate. You only allowed to state the number of failed attempted exams. Lets normalise failure and show support to the student community. It's better to keep failing and qualify than to cheat. Tag your Actuary friends in the comments to challenge them.

CAS vs SOA - which actuarial society should you choose? 🤔 Choosing which society you want to take exams through is based on which actuarial field you want to go into. If you're an actuarial student and are unsure which actuarial path you want to take (life, health, property/casualty, or consulting), you fortunately don’t have to decide until after you pass the P and FM exams 🤓 ❗An important consideration is that the SOA is the only one that offers UEC credit, which allows you to pass exams faster.

The Institute of Actuaries embarked on its mission of academic excellence with the first actuarial exams in 1850. These exams were designed to uphold high professional standards, covering critical subjects like mortality rates, compound interest, life contingencies, and annuities. This rigorous syllabus set a challenging bar, ensuring that only individuals with deep expertise entered the profession. The structure of these early exams was intentionally demanding, reflecting the seriousness of actuarial responsibilities in assessing financial risks. Originally, only individuals already working within the field could attempt the exams, emphasizing that actuaries needed both theoretical knowledge and practical experience. ➡️ Did You Know? These exams were initially open only to those already employed in actuarial roles, ensuring that IFoA-certified actuaries had hands-on experience. This blend of knowledge and practical expertise became a hallmark of the profession. #ActuarialScience #actuary #ActuarialCareer #actuarial #actuarylife #actuary12h

Actuaries are not made: Actuaries are not born nor is it a process that can be observed like the sunrise. They suddenly come into existence, and are only observed to exist when found. It is a complete set, binary in that they can only exist or not. There is no middle ground. Thus, the exams is a process of determining if you are an Actuary, not if you are becoming one. This is why the exam requires you to demonstrate that you are an Actuary. Much like ruin theory, at any point in time, you are one or not. It's much like a chicken and egg question. However, the state of being an Actuary is only true when demonstrated. Thus, you can be one in one moment, and not in another. So if you claim to be an Actuary, always demonstrate what it is. I know what colour a Fellow is (ASD talk), and thus know what colour I need to look like. However, I worry about those who carry the title, but have a different colour than what they were before. To those, though you might have demonstrated that colour before, take a look in the mirror to see this. If you have lost your colour, it's okay. It's okay to convince others that you still have that FASSA colour, because the world is bad. But you can get your colour back, once you realize you lost the colour. My advice to get a fresh recolour is to exercise your ability to demonstrate your FASSAship and contribute to the profession. A great place to start is by volunteering or contributing to Actuarial Society of South Africa (ASSA). #Reflect #CPD #TheRealFASSA #ActuariallyAmazing #TrueRoleModels #StayFASSAnating #RandomMotivationalPostIDK

I feel amazed to share my joy of clearing my first actuarial exam from SOA. SOA Exam FM: What is it all about? Exam FM from the Society of Actuaries is one of the foundation actuarial exams. It is a multiple-choice test with a time limit of 2.5 hours. I encountered with a total of 30 questions, each with A, B, C, D and E as the answer options. It was administered as a computer-based test. And looking at its name – financial mathematics -it gives a candidate an understanding of important aspects of financial mathematics. We also get exposed to the application of these financial mathematics aspects in determining the present and accumulated values for several streams of cash flows. This will prove crucial down the road in our actuarial work when we will be handling things like 1. Asset and liability management 2. Reserving 3. Pricing 4. Valuation 5. Investment income 6. Valuing contingent cash flows and 7. Capital budgeting. But to grasp the said financial mathematics concepts, we should have a rough idea of both calculus and probability. #FM_Exam #Actuarial_Science #Actuaries #Actuary #SOA
