Hi there! I'm preparing SA3, had past SP7, but haven't looked at SP8. Regarding the knowledge of pricing required for SA3, could I acquire relevant knowledge by reading the book "Pricing_in_General_Insurance" suggested by the IFoA website in the column of "Resources for SP8", rather than reading the notes of SP8? I don't have any exposure of pricing in working context. thanks! Smith
No, the Core Reading for SP8 is required knowledge for SA3, and has often been examined directly in the SA3 exam. Reading around the subject will of course help though.
