Questions

Hi, any advice is appreciated!

Q1) I presume that a pdf document of the exam paper is provided. Say, there is a large data table in the pdf document and we need to perform calculations based on it. What should we do if the whole data table appears only in 1 cell when copied to Excel?

Q2) Is it acceptable to include a technical term with some explanation in the written section?
Example: Longevity risk (risk that the insured person lives longer than expected in the pricing assumptions)

Thanks :)
 
Hi Shinmo

Regarding your first question.
Try to copy a table from pdf into a plain text file first, and then in Excel use Data -> From Text button to upoad it into a worksheet. It might be the case that you will need to do some corrections, but anyway it is a quick way.
