They are due to be posted on the results website at 10.00 BST. But the server is down - it's always too busy at 10.00, so I was trying to kill time by watching The Ring. But it's now 10.15, and still no results.

The wait is killing me !!!!

Actuary neither do I

yay congratulations 1p1p!! simon!

that's a tough exam, isn't it?

congrats!

i just got my results yesterday too... an ordinary BA. but i'm still happy 'bout it.

Congratulations 1p1p1i3, those exams are really tough.

For those who don't know, an actuary is the person who calculates the risks an insurance company can take on, and is responsible for setting the premium rates.


1p1p1i3, you should really brag about this a bit, it's a major achievement.

Actuarial exams have one of the highest failure rates of any profession, they are notoriously difficult and even the cleverest of people tend to have to do a few repeats along the way.

College places for Actuarial are extremely difficult to get, ranked up there with medical and vetinary. Actuarial (in Ireland anyway) is known as the most difficult profession to succeed in.

So congrats once again 1p1p1i3, you done good!
