Exam information about time and location can be found here.

Comments: it is customary to allow the use of an approved calculator during the exam. However, the exam does not require a calculator for its completion at all. So if you don't have one, don't worry!

I also uploaded a selection of earlier exams.

I hope you enjoyed the course and learned useful concepts on life insurance and finance.

Good luck!
