Advice for students studying ST6

Subject ST6 has moved away from the traditional "Core Reading" approach. Instead, the majority of the Core Reading is replaced by references to two textbooks:

  • Options, Futures and other Derivatives by J C Hull (6th Ed) ISBN 0131499084
  • Financial calculus: an introduction to derivative pricing, by M. Baxter and A. Rennie, ISBN 0521552893

As a result ActEd's Course Notes are not intended to be used as a standalone course. Instead, the notes aim to summarise the key principles and results and to explain in more detail the most difficult topics in the syllabus. A Question & Answer Bank and a set of Series X Assignments have been produced as normal.

ActEd's Combined Materials Pack in Subject ST6 will include both text books as well as the Course Notes, Q&A Bank and X Assignments. However, all of these items may also be purchased separately, please click here for price details of ActEd material.
ActEd's individual price for the Hull textbook is £49 and the Baxter & Rennie textbook is £39 (excluding despatch costs please click here for details).
