Course Questions

 

Updated: December 4, 2009

 

Question: If we have problems with the material or the homework, how do we get help?

 

Answer: The NEAS faculty answer students’ questions about the material and homework. Post your questions in the appropriate module of the discussion forum.

 

Question: Should we use existing threads or new threads?

 

Answer: It is best to use an existing thread. The NEAS threads cover most of the material in each module; post your question in one of these threads.

 

Question: Are there restrictions on the subject matter on the discussion forum?

 

Answer: Only course material or exam material should be posted on the discussion forums, whether on-line courses, SOA exams, or CAS exams.

 

Question: Can I post a query about an SOA or CAS exam, even if it is not related to the on-line courses or study manuals?

 

Answer: Yes, all course and exam issues can be discussed in this forum.

What statistical software is needed for this course? I know excels regression add in from the regression module. Will that be enough, or do I need to get R as well?

[NEAS: The excel add-in is sufficient. R and similar statistical packages are more powerful, but they are not needed for this course.]

Will we get feedback on the homework we submit so we can learn whether we are doing the problems correctly?  I'm sorry if the response to this question is covered elsewhere. 

[NEAS: Use the practice problems in each module and in the "final exam" thread to see if you are doing the problems correctly.]
