Although failing is not fun, it's good for you that it happens sometimes. It makes you stronger and you learn how to deal with setbacks. I didn't have setbacks during my student time and couldn't handle them when it did start to happen. So it's only healthy having to deal with setbacks sometimes:)

Ahhh I’m sorry. We’ll both come back from it though! Thanks for watching 😊

As a first year at uni, it was hard already to get back into being motivated socializing etc, especially after a year just doing zoom classes. I failed my first exam which was a low blow, then told myself it wasn't the end of the world like you said. That by failing you learn more from your mistakes. Like a teacher told me once : It's better to fail and learn about how to get better, than to pass at 60% or an average grade and not understand your own mistakes. Which could follow you later. Seeing this video just a few days before restarting the winter semester has helped me tons. Thank you!♥

I think you handled it so well! This year I failed a couple of exams and although obviously it's not a nice experience I'd say I learned a lot about myself as a person!!

That's tough- bit frustrating! You did well in the other two so all is not lost. All the best with revision though and hope the new job is doing well! We love supportive colleagues!

I actually really needed this - I’m a trainee accountant and have never failed anything in my life either- awaiting exam result on Thursday and highly anticipate a fail - you’re the most comparable non-accountant person for me to go through it all with and as much as it sucks, seeing you fail with grace is making me less afraid of doing the same! Better luck next time ❤

Happy Birthday Paige🎊 🎉 Congratulations on your birthday 🎁 May God bestow you good fortune, prosperity, longevity, and endless delight. May the garden of your life blooms with the flowers of happiness! Enjoy this awesome day 💕!!

That's a really good showing with CP2 on the first attempt! Just throw in CP2 with every session until you get it, there's an element of luck in that you may get a paper that is closely related to your daily work. Well done!

I've just moved abroad. I failed so many job applications. I wanted to apply for a PhD but there has been no positions open by now. I feel there is no place for me anywhere. Hope things will go better, I'm taking your positivity as a role model, thank you.

things WILL get better, I'm certain. Good luck and keep going!

A pro tip for CP2... If you don't understand something, model is however you understood it and just audit it. Also if you make an error, mention the error on the audit and carry on as normal. Put lots of auto checks and reasonableness checks where you can. Then you'll defo pass!

Congratulations Paige! Don't worry about CP2 - CM2 was the key one here! (CP2 and 3 you can kind of bung in when you fancy it; I'd say you've failed right lol). Also, one of the best modellers/coders at my company failed CP2, so you're in good company! The marking can be weird sometimes. I remember my CA2 exam (CP2 predecessor): for Paper 1, one marker gave me 80, the other 60, while for Paper 2 it was something like 65 and 75. In one section marked out of 20, one of them gave me 15 and the other 3 lol.

Haha yes if I had to choose an exam to fail, I’d choose CP2 😂 Thanks for the encouragement!

Hi Paige, it’s completely alright to fail your actuarial exams. CP3 gave me a very tough time and I was able to clear this paper in 6th attempt despite being praised for my communication skills at work. So never loose hope and learn from your mistakes. This diet I attain my associateship and hence now moving forward to fellow exams :)

This is really reassuring and encouraging to hear. Good luck with your remaining exams!

Come on, recently I failed few interviews and felt this as well, so I'm sure, you will be acknowledged about difficult parts next time and will pass these exams. Keep moving, I believe in your strength.

you're doing great!, you're half way to your goal. The CP3 exam is not to be confused with the much harder C-3PO exam from star wars, ha. Have a great Christmas to you and your family.

Actuarial exams are no joke guys. Seriously, those exams can be extremely difficult. In my country, South Africa, there was actually one exam where no one passed. Failure is just another chance to succeed!

These exams are very different than uni exams and sometimes they are very very difficult. I failed 2 times during my SAP certification exams and I felt miserable until I pass them. Best luck in your next session. 💛💛 Note: When I look back now, I see clearly that SAP was not my calling at all... but hey-ho!

Paige, I congratulate for passing your two exams. Do not worry about you failing one exam! You will do it in the next sitting and I am sure that you will pass the second time because you will be more familiar with the material. What exams will be doing in your next sitting?

Don't worry too much about it - I think they may have a quota for the pass rates. In Australia we have the financial adviser's exam and really smart people have been known to fail 4 times! You can only learn and grow from this :)

Aw honey! It hurts wen one doesn't get through at the exams at one go ...it always happens BUT it helps us to get through real well the next attempt cause it's so much more determination... I cleared my RCOG membership exams in one go and all the ones who didn't were broken hearted ...it is sad but that's how it is !

I am astonished to see the number of subscribers. Pretty sure they are not just actuarial canditldates.

You got this 🙌🥰 hope you have a lovely Christmas Paige x

Yes I’m glad I gave it a go even if the result wasn’t what I wanted! Bring on next sitting

US fall results aren’t released until mid January so almost a month left. I wish results go released like this though! The SOA doesn’t tell us what the passing score was or what your score was. They give you a rating from 0 to 10 and a 6 means you scored 100-109% of the mysterious passing score they set. Super annoying and not transparent at all.

Well done Paige 👏. Wishing you all the best in your next sitting.

It's alright...you just have to keep trying ...and it'a certainly no laughing matter to have cleared two out of three of such difficult exams

Same thing happened to me. I'm an australian actuary and have 1 exam until qualification. The website crashed and my friends/colleagues were freaking out

This is actually inspiring. I've been terrified to take any of the exams... partially because I am 36 years old and just got my BS in Actuarial Science. 😬

Still major inspo for everyone out there Paige!

And also passing CP3, 2 passes at 8 the same time it's a big success, for the CP2 you will pass it very soon coz you were very close to the boundary. Well done

I failed on CM2, but congrats on CP3 and CM2. Will be doing CM2 and CP2 next sitting.

I think failing is an important part of life, it keeps us from remaining stagnant, and reminds us of the standards we need to set for ourselves to achieve! 💕 Overall incredible marks though - please don’t be upset in any way by this. Your industry is not an easy one by any stretch of the imagination!

Merry X'Mas Paige, have a great year ahead. 🌹🌻🌲

Keep the faith! You got this.

You only fail if you give up and not learn from the experience. And if everyone found it a tough paper, maybe you could all make a study group next time, and ask if an examiner could go through that paper to explain where you went wrong and why
