Apparently ACAS's and FCAS's don't fail exams. (I wish!)

If I took 5 exams, does that make me more than an ASA?

No.

With a pass rate of 40-45% for exam 5. A pass rate over 80% for the FAP 1. Lets assume FAP 2 is around same, we know one thing, it won't drop to 50%. 80%*80% > 40-45% therefor statistically one would be more likely to fail before passing 5 exams rather than getting ASA.

But I guess that data would give an upwards severity bias on failures, so it wouldn't be useful.

Hey Bruce. How are you today?

What do you think the average age for someone completing their first exam is from the data you used to determine average age of new FSA? I mean surely it can't be higher than 26-27, but you never know :lol:.

I have always gotten between a '4' and '8' inclusive. Been fortunate enough to never fail an exam twice.

Might be a good analogy.

I studied for one exam 4 times (in part due to job changes & student program changes), but only took it thrice to pass.
