Im studying actuarial science in UK currently. well to be exact in Heriot-Watt University.. they offer full exemption if u get 1st class which is not easy.. Here just some additional info about good uni for actuarial in UK:

City Univ
LSE
Southampton
Warwick but the course is known as MORSE

Ya u dun really need an actuarial science degree to become actuary. xD!

well if im not mistaken u get exemption from all the CT exam.. hmm maybe more i cant really remmber about it.. So there is still other exams that u need to take later.. This is provided that u get 1st class or the minimum mark/score which is set up by the uni and the FOA for the modules.. btw qualified AS as in? to get job?

yup since the board have like 2 section (not sure how many exactly xD) of exemption.. just an analogy

1st part ; 9 test
2nd part ; 8 test

some university will tell u that u get full exemption.. well they actually means exemption from the 1st part.. not all the exemption offered by the actuarial board

well if i still remember the 1st part is called CT right? Core technical?
