Now I am taking calculus 1. My plan for exam P: Take calculus 1, 2 and 3 (9 credit hours of calculus). Take the coaching actuaries course for exam P. (coaching actuaries only, no Actex, only coaching actuaries) Should that be enough?

Passed it on my second attempt (5 on the first try, 7 on the second try). Author Posts Viewing 2 posts - 1 through 2 (of 2 total) You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
