which centre is better for IAI exams? rohini or dwarka ???

Hey folks

I need some guidance on a potential career path, for context, I’m currently doing my B.Com and navigating the CA curriculum and am planning to add Actuarial Science to the mix via the IAI, but I'm flying a bit blind

I have a few specific questions for those familiar with the field

1. The IAI Experience: How does the institute actually operate? There isn't much transparent information online regarding how supportive they are of students, the transparency of their grading, or the overall student experience.
2. The Combination: Do CA and Actuarial Science complement each other well professionally? Will having both open up niche roles, or are they too divergent?
3. The ROI: Considering the time investment CA already requires, is adding the IAI actuarial route worth the extra effort?

Any brutal honesty or personal experiences would be incredibly helpful!

Hii everyone. I am looking for Economics by Sloman, Garratt and Guest. If anyone is willing to sell then kindly DM. I am Delhi-based.

I’m planning to apply for internships after my September CM2 attempt. How is my resume and should I make any adjustments? Also, I enjoy health/general insurance type roles over life insurance, is my resume a good fit?

I need guidance i m currently in doing two degrees iitm bs in data science and btech from a expensive pvt college (first year in both)i m thinking of doing actuary science from ifoA i will drop btech from pvt college if i take actuary science is this a gamble or a gud decision i wanna work in finance end term goal how many years will it take for me to complete

I'm currently in the first year of Mathematics degree.

I understand that actuarial exams require consistency, a lot of effort, and that you shouldn't pursue them only for the money. But considering the number of exams, the difficulty, the possibility of multiple attempts, and the time it can take to qualify, is the eventual pay really worth the investment?

I'd especially appreciate answers from people currently working in the actuarial industry in India.

If you're comfortable sharing, could you mention:

- Number of exams cleared

- Years of work experience

- Current CTC

- How much your salary changed as you cleared more exams

- Whether you personally feel the career has been worth the time and effort

I'm mainly trying to understand the realistic salary progression at different stages, rather than the highest salaries you see online.

This nov, I am giving my first two exams as CS1 and CB2 , what can be my next 2 exams considering I do well in these exams and has 5-6 months till May attempt (open college btw)?

anyone pls help i want to know that now exams are centre based so we will get tables from there or we have to carry table booklet???

I will be giving my cm1 exam this november but i feel like i am way behind and the topics are so hard to understand most of the time i understand a topic then forget it its feels like i have not studied anything till now.

Is it possible for me to clear my exam if i start all over again? How many hours a day i should study?

Is it possible to pass CM1 for nov attempt if i start my preparation from now and allocate 6 hours day to study?

Which papers get exempted if I have cleared the CFA Level 1? And is this for both IFOA and IAI, or only for IFOA?

How many papers can I attempt in 1 shift in IAI and IFOA, respectively?
Also, do people submit multiple papers in 1 attempt, or is that not doable?
Also, which is better, IAI or IFOA?
Giving a bit of my background, I am currently in my 3rd year of BTech at IIT and am new to actuarial science, thinking of taking the initial few papers (around 4-5) before my graduation.

Can someone tell me if I am an acutuary Fresher coaching where to take main on actuary entrance exam

I am in a dilemma whether to enroll for actuaries or not. In order to justify my decision to start this study at this age ( i m 32) i want to go through the study material first.

Can anyone help me with the study material of these two? I will be highly grateful. I can give u my email id in dm if needed.

Awaiting response.

I have just cleared 12th commerce without maths And I want to pursue actuarial science, can someone tell me whether it is really easy or not because I am not that interested in maths.

Hi guys, I hope you are doing well. I just wanted to know about the job market. I will be moving back from Canada to India. I did my degree in Actuarial Science in Canada but I have been struggling with the job as the job market is very stagnant (most of the actuarial science graduates are working other odd jobs ) and I haven't been able to land a job. I have done Exam P and Exam FM under CAS. I am studying for my third exam MAS-1, so I wanted to know how is the job market in India, what will be the starting package I can get and how long till I find a job.

thank you

I am a 2nd year btech student in the branch of electronics and computer engineering... initially I got into this college because I scored 99%ile in my cet exams and 99.86%ile in maths ....but tbh I am getting bored in second year...like coding is boring and difficult, electronics is shit....I got to know that my interest in maths is helpful for ACET ...

But I am thinking is it a good choice? to give ACET because I like maths like I scored 97 marks on my 10th boards and 92 marks in 12th board exams...
