Exam 6-US
April 28, 2019 Updated the practice exam errata with one more error. It is related to an incorrect factor being used to calculate the DTA stemming from revenue offset in the solution to #20. This problem was already on the errata sheet so you will just see an update to the errata in blue. This will probably be the last update before the exam. Good luck! -Michael April 15, 2019 Updated study guide and practice exam errata to address a labeling issue for unauthorized reinsurers. Please see the errata for details. -Michael April 12, 2019 Updated practice exam errata. -Michael April 4, 2019 Updated the study guide and practice exam errata. -Michael March 20, 2019 Updated the errata sheet within the course. -Michael February 1, 2019 I will be on vacation from 2/2-2/9 with limited access to email. Please send any questions you have to scott@casualfellow.com during this period. Hope studying is going well! -Michael January 14, 2019 The errata sheet has been updated within the online course. November 16, 2018 The spring 2019 study guide is now available for purchase! For the spring 2019 sitting & beyond, the study guide will be housed in an online learning course hosted by Thinkific. You can view a preview version of the study guide (as well as purchase it) by clicking on the link on the "Order" tab of this website.

Exam 7
April 29, 2019 Made one last update to the practice exam errata to clarify Problem #19 on PE1. This will be the last update for the sitting. Good luck on Thursday! -Michael April 26, 2019 Updated study guide errata. Specifically, I added a Taylor errata for Theorem 3.1. When I originally wrote the theorem, I changed the wording slightly to avoid some of the redundancy in terms of assumption M3b applying for all theorem conditions. But in doing so, I'm afraid I caused other confusion. So, the errata includes updated wording for Theorem 3.1 that aligns exactly with the text. In addition, I moved the third piece of theorem (about cumulative loss estimates and reserve estimates as MVUEs) to the second bullet because it goes with the ODP Mack model. I updated the Theorem 3.1 slide in the video as well. -Michael April 18, 2019 Updated the practice exam errata sheet with a small errata on the solution to #6c on Practice Exam 1. -Michael April 14, 2019 Updated errata sheet. -Michael March 20, 2019 Updated the Venter Factors review video. The update concerned the slide on the Iterative Fit of the Cape Cod model. In the slide, I say that the iteration stops once the "h" parameter has been calculated. However, this is not true. You must calculate new f(d) parameters to go with it. Once the new f(d) parameters are calculated, then the model fit is over. This will be included in the next errata update as well. -Michael February 16, 2019 Updated errata. -Michael February 1, 2019 I will be on vacation from 2/2-2/9 with limited access to email. If you are a joint seminar student, please send any questions you have to steve@risingfellow.com. If you are not a joint seminar student, I will respond to any emails once I return. Hope studying is going well! -Michael January 13, 2019 The errata sheets have been updated within each online course. -Michael November 1, 2018 All products for the Spring 2019 sitting have been finalized and are available for purchase! Please check out the "Study Guides" and "Seminars" pages for details on each product. -Michael October 11, 2018 A number of students have asked about when the materials will be available for the upcoming Exam 7 sitting. All materials (including the joint CF/RF online seminar) will be available in late October/early November. -Michael |
