![]() I think it took a few days until a received an email notification letting me know that I could choose the city in which I would be taking the exam. I know for a fact, however, that that email never came on the same day as I paid for the exam.

![]() I just took an adapt exam (EL 5.9) and it had 19 questions over level 6. This doesn't seem realistic, does it? There were so many tough questions that I took 4.5 hours to finish.
Am I better off just practicing at EL 5 and focusing on staying within the time frame?

I have also been struggling with EL 6 exams. For now, I'm just focusing on quizzes and the official sample questions.

![]() I've heard the same, but I wonder if mine may have been a little more difficult (or just crappy luck of the draw on questions/poor exam day performance). I had a 4.64 EL the first time and a 5.9 the second, but still didn't pass.
I'm going every other exam now - actual EL then back to a level 5 so I don't get too discouraged.

![]() I took it in June with an earned level between 5 and 6 (don't remember exactly) and passed with a 7. I feel like the real exam was a solid 5.
The hardest part of the exam for me was the way it "feels." Like when you use coaching actuaries forever you get used to a certain style of question, and then wording on the real exam felt pretty different. For this reason I'd recommend studying up to level 6 questions, although the real exam didn't feel that hard. autobot, sounds like you were unlucky. You'll definitely pass this time!

Yes, it says on the syllabus there will still be pilot questions. Thank goodness for instant results. The whole idea of take an exam, wait 8 weeks, then cram 8 weeks of studying in was TERRIBLE.
