SOA recommended to take FE first then FR. What is your recommendation? Does it really matter?

Yes, it is better to do so because the FE can give you the fundamental concepts and ideas about the finance/investment world. The FR module will be quite difficult to understand if you do not have enough financial background.

If both modules were a research paper, the FE module would be an introduction and the FR module would be like the body of the content.

Hope this information helpful =)

One more thing: the FR module is very practical. I meant you will learn many ideas and concepts about your daily work from it. Thanks SOA for putting such a high quality material here.
