Seeking advice on SOA preparation from experienced CAs

本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛I have now started my SOA case writing since mid-April, and am encountering various issues. And If you have any spare time and energy, please kindly share with me your SOA prep experience. I am totally failing on all the cases I have attempted.

1) I did my first case and got Densmore marked, however, I went over the time limit by about 30 minutes. Though the overall marks indicate a 2% decile, I know it needs to be discounted to 8 or 9 decile because I have totally failed on the time requirement.

2) I have been doing one case each week in the past two weeks. For both cases, I tried to stick to the suggested time list, and found myself run short of time again, regardless of whether I did planning or not at the beginning.

3) I did a case without sketching an outline, I missed one key requirement and mixed up some key case facts and reached wrong conclusions. Maybe an outline is necessary? I shall never omit it in the process?

4) I did debriefing after each case write-up, which takes a long time. I read the perfect solutions, sample student response, evaluation guide, and rewrite the whole case based on the perfect solutions for the purpose of reviewing my technical knowledge. Am I doing the right thing?

When I was studying CKE last Sept to December, I kinda misinterpreted the degree of difficulty. During the exam, I came to realized that it focuses on breath instead of depth. Overall I spent a lot of extra time preparing for the exam. As I am preparing for SOA, I want to listen to the sharing from experienced CAs who have walked through the whole process. Your time and help is really appreciated. Please feel free to leave me a PM if you want to give me more personal suggestion. Thanks a million!更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
