Planning my studies

Hi

CT2 is one of the 3 courses I'm about to study in time for September.

I'm not in actuarial work so haven't got any friends to ask these question.

To help me plan my studies, could someone say please:

Which chapters of CT2 are more difficult than most?
Which chapters of CT2 are easier than most?


CT4, 6 are the others I'm studying

Thanks
 
You sure u wanna do three this September? Especially CT4? When i sat for this exam under the old syllabuse (104) it was the toughest! If they have chopped some of the parts then it may not be too bad. Then again if you are confident you can handle and you get enought time off work you might as well have a go.
I am ok with the other two subjects
Good Luck
 
I think it would be considered unusual for anyone to sit 3 CTs in a September sitting.
In CT2, the last 4 chapters are the hardest (in my opinion). The first 6, except possibly chapter 1, are probably the easiest, though if you've done any accounting before, you'll probably fly through those chapters.

CT4 is a very long subject, much longer than CT2 or 6.
