In my past recollection with the exam, I did not recall them putting very=20
many points on the exam for current events. I would say five points per yea=
r=20
at the most, sometimes less. However, that is just a rough guess, since the=
=20
study manuals do not include past current event questions, in general.
On another subject, are any of you attending the Ratemaking Seminar next=20
week. I am planning to attend myself, and I would like the opportunity to=20
meet you if you are going to be there.
That is all for now. Good luck with the studies.

For the Current Developments section, the '98 syllabus seems to indicate
that we need to read only the three source readings. In past syllabi (I,
too, hate people who say "syllabi"), a lengthy blurb was included saying
that candidates had to read every Nat'l Underwriter or Best's Review or
Smart's Bulletin ever written, or some such thing. That blurb was removed
this year. So, should we be comfortable reading ONLY the three source
readings? Does anyone have any info about this change?
Returning to GAMBARDJI's question, any insight into how hard they test the
current events? And to dperry, I would love a copy of the point
breakdown, if you indeed create one. Yes, I'm very lazy.
Thanks and good luck to all,
Seth Ruff
