Assessment: The final grade is based on four assignments, and a final exam. The assignments questions are multiple choice, constructed to help students verify that they have achieved all of the learning objectives. Students may complete the assignments at their leisure – anytime before the final exam is written.
Final Exam: The final exam is a comprehensive, two-hour, closed-note and closed-text exam. Exam questions are multiple-choice, similar in substance to the assigned practice and graded homework problems.
Proctors: Students are responsible for finding a proctor. Students can choose to use our online proctoring service, ProctorU (details below), or find an outside individual. Exam proctors must be approved by ACTEX. Acceptable proctors include:
- Credentialed actuaries
- CFA or a member of management unable to sit for exams, such as an HR manager or university professor
- The proctor and candidate may not be related
If you have selected CBT Final (computer-based test) the instructions will be emailed to your proctor (see Student Responsibilities below).
Individuals with disabilities are eligible to receive necessary testing accommodations. Please contact onlinecourses@actexmadriver.com prior to registering for this course if you require an accommodation.
Students are allowed to use SOA approved calculators.
Computer-Based Test (CBT) Final Exam: ProctorU

Great course, the instructor is able to explain the concepts without any complicated examples or words.
Very helpful and descriptive video lectures.
The course was great, and Dr. Perry made the concepts very easy to understand. The assignments with each module were also very helpful.
