Hi Reader,

We hope you've had a great first month to the New Year and are off to a strong start studying for your spring exam.

One way to keep on track is using a study hours tracker to help measure your focused study hours. The more consistently you can get good studying done in January and February, the easier March and April will be.

In our latest blog post (below), Building an Effective Study Routine for Actuarial Exams, we share tips on how to study more effectively this sitting.

Exam News & Information

Here's what you need to know:

• The CAS will be launching a new CAS Portal soon. In the meantime, there is a temporary exam registration process for the spring exam sitting. Here's the key announcement:

Make sure you register for the exam and schedule it with Pearson Vue as soon as you can!
