Actuarial exam prep

Ace your Actuarial exams with my personalized 1-on-1 exam prep

Becoming an actuary takes a lot of work, but it doesn’t need to be stressful. After failing my first Actuarial exam, I went on to pass every exam without fail to get my ASA and then soon after finished up the rest of the exams to become an FSA. Over the course of taking Actuarial exams, I spent a lot of time studying for exams, and when I say a lot I mean a LOT — 3,000+ hours studied!

What to expect

I created a system that gave me the best chance to pass each test and I want to pass that knowledge on to you. I want to see you succeed and can assist you with the following for exam prep.

Gain a deep understanding of the course material

Although each exam is unique, they all contain a textbook full of material and understanding the content goes much farther than memorizing a bunch of formulas.
