Intro
Hi there! My name is Ven and I am an actuarial student currently studying for the CP1 exam which is in April 2021.
Actuarial exams are known for being really difficult and in this video I explain what it is exactly that makes them so difficult. If you intend to start writing actuarial exams, this video will help you understand what to expect in your journey.
I hope that this video will motivate you to study hard. Happy studying :)
