So I have been MIA for a while but I am happy to report that everything is a-ok, I’ve just been busy with work, life and most importantly, I’ve been lazy as hell lately in terms of writing a new post.
As I mentioned earlier, I passed the CKE…wooooooooooohooo. Funny thing is, I was shit scared about passing and somehow ended up in the 3rd decile. Not excellent by any means, but a lot better than I expected.
During the mock exams, my strongest subject was assurance and weakest was finance. I get my results back and I was in the first decile for finance and tax, and did poorly on assurance and PM. This worries me because it is said that these areas are extremely important when it comes time to the SOA or UFE. But, I was fairly comfortable with the material going into the exam, so I am going to blame my performance, or lack of, on the frigid conditions of the arctic test writing center.
Now, I’m on to the next one. SOA training sessions have already started. This is going to be a completely different animal. I have heard all sorts of stories, so I am hoping their experiences and my studying combine to form some sort of superhero ala Capital Planet, and I can successfully pass the exam.
As you can tell, this post added absolutely zero value to you. You are welcome. Don’t worry, I’m just getting warmed up – more good things to come soon, I promise hope.
What others have to say…
