Default New exam format for course 3
In regards to the new exam format for course 3...

To the best of my knowledge:

If you take SOA MFE and MLC, you get credit for SOA exam 3 and CAS exam 3.

If you take CAS exam 3 you only get credit for CAS 3.

Is this true?

The SOA no longer has an exam identified by the number 3 so in that respect you don't get credit for SOA exam 3.

If you're being technical, neither organization gives any credit just for taking exams, only for passing exams.

I just realized Gandalf was getting more technical about the OP and not mine.
