Ten days to go

until my actuarial exam. Oh, you thought I meant the election? Yeah, the SOA scheduled my exam for 2PM on election day. So it goes.

I took a practice exam today and did really well, which was a little heartening because some of the problems I've been working on lately have been throwing me pretty bad. However, the exam I just took is from the first time this exam was ever offered and the questions were softballs. I don't expect my upcoming exam to be anywhere near as easy.

In any case, I won't find out how I did until January so I'll try to fill in some more pie pieces while I wait, either studying for another exam (my final preliminary exam!) if I feel like I passed or getting my economics requirements out of the way if I feel like I didn't. There's not an overwhelming amount of material on this one so I think I can get up to speed pretty easily if I have to take it again in May. But hopefully I can find enough problems that I know how to answer that I can get through this time around. We'll see...

Becoming an actuary sure is hard work! Good Luck!
