      When the SOA announced changes to their exam track, the said people who took the ILA LAM exam would receive credit for the new CP351. Naturally, everyone assumed CP351 would be pretty similar to LAM, with maybe a few tweaks.

      Turns out CP351 is a completely different exam. LAM is gone. And if you failed LAM, you’re just out of luck? You don’t even get the chance to apply all the hours you poured into it.

      Personally, I put in hundred hours of studying and sacrifice for the LAM exam I took in May. I barely missed passing. It felt like I was right there. Now that exam’s scrapped and CP351 is something entirely new, which I now have to start from zero. Honestly feels like the SOA misled us. We deserved better communication, and fairer transition.

      Does our time and efforts mean nothing? Like the hours of studying are just gone now? Curious to know how others feel about this. Am I the only one frustrated?
