2022 Spring

Note: Thank you to everyone who submitted their grade report. The number of grade reports now seems credible and the statistics aren't changing with the inclusion of additional grade reports.

The following estimate is based on currently available grade reports submitted from unsuccessful candidates:

Estimated %-score required to pass Exam 6U in 2022-Spring 69.2%

Exam summaries as provided for 2019-Fall and earlier are no longer available because the CAS has stopped publishing exams and providing detailed grade reports to unsuccessful candidates. The grade reports currently provided to unsuccessful candidates now show only a 10% score range for each major learning objective. For example: Section A: 60-70%. Here are the average scores for each section across all candidates from whom we received a grade report:

Section Learning Objective Average Score
A Regulation of Insurance and U.S. Insurance Law 88%
B Government & Industry Insurance Programs 68%
C Financial Reporting & Taxation 60%
D Professional Responsibilities 75%
E Reinsurance Accounting Principles 44%
