Passing Your First Actuarial Exam is Tough
Passing your first actuarial exam is one of the most difficult things you’ll ever have to do.
Why? Because..
You need to dedicate 100+ hours to study for it Only about 50% of exam takers pass the exam The math is extremely difficult Its completely different than any exam you’ve ever studied for before
These are all reasons why failing the first exam is so common.
It’s why some people decide to give up on the actuarial career even though they know it would be the perfect career for them.
Most of the time, people that fail their first an actuarial exam think it’s because they’re not smart enough. They think they can’t do it.
But the truth is, they can pass. They are smart enough. They’re just missing one important (very important) thing…
A “M.A.P. Study Strategy”.
A MAP study strategy is the absolute best way to prepare for an actuarial exam.
It’ll skyrocket your chances of passing the exam! And reduce the amount of time it takes to do so.
What is a M.A.P. study strategy?
Well, it’s a strategy designed specifically for the long-term studying that a future actuary has to commit to when preparing for an actuarial exam.
(FYI: Studying for an actuarial exam typically takes 4-6 months)
These types of study strategies have 3 essential pieces that work together to create an almost fail-proof exam-passing system.
MATERIALS
ACCOUNTABILITY
PLAN
Without all 3 pieces in place, you risk having to take the exam again and spend 100+ EXTRA hours re-studying the same material.
Let’s Look At Each Piece Closer…
Study materials will teach you all the math concepts you’ll need to pass your first exam.
The math you learned in a course or a textbook usually isn’t enough to pass an exam.
Without study materials, preparing for an actuarial exam is almost impossible because you won’t know what to study or what types of questions to expect on the exam.
Studying for an actuarial exam usually takes 4-6 months! For most people, it’s hard to stay consistent and stick to study plan for that long.
(I mean, think about your New Year’s Resolution last year.. did you stick to it?)
That’s why having Brea tracking your progress and holding you accountable is so beneficial for actuarial exams. We find that exam studiers without accountability are far more likely to fall behind on their study plan and unfortunately, it often leads to failing too.
Actuarial exams are different from any other exam you’ve taken in your life. They’re likely harder too!
A study plan gives you studying tasks to complete each day so that you have confidence you’ll have everything done by exam day.
Without a personalized study strategy designed specifically for an actuarial exam, you may end up spending 100s of hours on an studying approach that just doesn’t work.
All 3 Pieces Work Together!
You see how all 3 pieces work together?
You need study materials to know WHAT to study.
You need a study plan to know WHEN and HOW to study.
You need accountability to study consistently for 4-6 months, even while you’re busy with other obligations too.
When all 3 pieces work together, there is very little room for error. Passing your exam is almost a guarantee because you’ve got all your bases covered!
So now you may be saying “yeah, the M.A.P. study strategy does sound like the way to go. But how do I get one for myself?“
Well, that’s where the Study Strategy Program comes in!

Here’s What You Get In The Study Strategy Program!
YOU GET STUDY MATERIALS
During your onboarding call with Brea, she will help you decide which type of study materials are best for you, and then you’ll personally receive those exact materials (included as part of the program). You do not need to purchase any additional study materials.
That means you’ll get one of the following study materials; ACTEX, ASM, TIA, or COACHING ACTUARIES, (valued at $240-$500 depending on which one is recommended for you).
YOU GET A PERSONALIZED STUDY PLAN
Your study plan will be completely personalized for you by Brea.
It will start with you meeting 1-on-1 with Brea during your onboarding call to discuss your specific scenario and how to best study for your exam. Together, you’ll discuss the amount of time you have, the materials you’re using, and then, she’ll create a personalized study plan just for you.
This way, you’re always spending your study time in the best way. You study plan will be monitored closely by Brea and changed when necessary depending on your performance.
YOU GET ACCOUNTABILITY
You’ll get an initial onboarding call with Brea. Then, for the next 6 months (or until you pass your exam), Brea will check on your studying progress (through our progress tracking system) every week to ensure that you’re held accountable and making good progress.
That way you’ll always have someone pushing you to stay consistent in achieving your biggest goal!
YOU GET ACTUARIAL MENTORSHIP
You’ll get a 15-minute coaching call with Brea every month! This is your chance to ask questions about your studying, and any other questions you may have about the career or your actuarial journey.
It’s like having your own personal actuarial mentor with you on this journey. You’re never alone!
YOU GET MATH TUTORING
You’ll get to participate in our bi-weekly group tutoring sessions, where you can personally ask our math tutors any questions you have about the math concepts you’re studying.
You can also ask questions in the Q&A forum to get a quick response within 24 hours on weekdays.
With 2 convenient ways to get your math questions answered, you’ll never be left feeling stuck on the math. It’s an amazing perk, especially for those that haven’t taken any math classes in a while.
YOU GET A PASS GUARANTEE
If you stay on track with the study plan that is created for you, then you should pass your exam within 6 months!
If, by chance, you end up failing the exam on your first attempt, we will pay your exam registration fee ($250) for your second attempt!

What’s Your Investment?
The decision to invest in yourself, your career and the Study Strategy Program really comes down to 2 questions that you need to ask yourself:
