I am not teaching or grading papers, I can usually be found playing some brass instrument or another, umpiring baseball, trying out a new recipe in the kitchen, or spending far too much time on Netflix.
Satvik
AP Statistics Tutor • +68 Subjects
I am an incoming college sophomoore studying Aerospace Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. I was one of the top scholars at Carmel High School in Indiana and have various experiences teaching and tutoring through leading the Carmel High School Science Olympiad team to Nationals for two years in a row. Many of my friends consistently come to me for help with various subjects because of my willingness to help and teach in a way that makes sense to everyone. My specialities are physics, chemistry, math, and economics but I am comfortable tutoring any STEM subject, the SAT, and the ACT. Some of my accomplishments include a perfect 36 ACT score, 800 on the Physics, Math Level 2, and Chemistry SAT subject tests, and a 5 on all the physics, Calculus BC, Chemistry, Macroeconomics, Computer Science, etc. AP exams. When teaching, I focus on making sure that not only do students understand different concepts, but also that students understand why and practical applications of the different concepts. As a recent high school graduate, I have a deep understanding of how high-schoolers think, what is covered in various courses now, and can connect with my students a lot more. Additionally, as an undergraduate teaching assistant at the College of Computing at Georgia Tech, I taught weekly recitation sections of 30 students and held weekly office hours. Therefore, I have lots of experience teaching and working with students.

Frequently Asked Questions
Students typically find the transition from Exam FM concepts to more advanced actuarial mathematics challenging, particularly in areas like survival analysis, force of mortality, and the relationships between different life table functions. Multi-state models and their applications to insurance products also trip up many candidates because they require both conceptual understanding and precise calculation. Additionally, the integration of financial mathematics with mortality assumptions—especially when deriving present values of life contingencies—demands strong foundational skills that many students need to reinforce.
Rather than memorizing formulas, a skilled tutor helps you see how survival probabilities, force of mortality, and annuity calculations connect to real insurance problems. For example, understanding why the present value of a life annuity depends on both discount rates and mortality risk—and how these interact—makes the formulas meaningful instead of arbitrary. Tutors also help you work through derivations step-by-step, showing you where each formula comes from and how to adapt it when exam questions present variations or unfamiliar scenarios.
Expert tutors guide you through identifying what type of problem you're facing—whether it's a pure survival analysis question, a life contingency calculation, or a multi-state model application—so you can select the right approach before diving into calculations. They teach you to sketch out the timeline of cash flows, clearly define your assumptions about mortality and interest rates, and break complex multi-step problems into manageable pieces. This structured approach reduces calculation errors and helps you recognize patterns across different problem types, which is essential for managing the exam's time pressure.
Exam LTAM requires both speed and accuracy with calculations involving life tables, annuity factors, and present values—often with multiple steps and decimal precision. A tutor helps you practice working through full problems under timed conditions, identifying where you're losing time and which calculation shortcuts are safe versus risky. They also help you develop strategies for checking your work efficiently and knowing when a calculator approach versus a conceptual shortcut makes sense, so you can manage the exam's scope without burning out on tedious arithmetic.
LTAM uses dense actuarial notation—subscripts, superscripts, and special symbols like the circle notation for annuities—that can feel overwhelming at first. A tutor breaks this notation into digestible pieces, showing you that each symbol carries specific meaning about timing, mortality assumptions, and payment patterns. By practicing notation in context (working actual problems rather than memorizing symbols in isolation), you'll internalize what each symbol means and stop getting tripped up by variations like the difference between a̅ₓ and ä̅ₓ.
Multi-state models are abstract and require you to think about transitions between states (alive, disabled, dead, etc.) and calculate probabilities and present values across those transitions. Tutors often start with simple two-state models (like traditional mortality) before building to more complex scenarios, and they use diagrams to visualize state transitions so you can see the logic before tackling the math. This visual-to-algebraic progression helps you understand why certain formulas apply in specific situations and builds confidence for exam questions that describe unfamiliar state structures.
The BA II Plus calculator is standard for LTAM, and you need to be fluent with its financial functions (NPV, IRR, TVM solver) as well as basic statistical functions for working with life tables and survival probabilities. A tutor can show you efficient workflows for common LTAM calculations—like setting up annuity factor computations or working with survival probabilities—so you're not fumbling during the exam. Practice with the calculator under timed conditions also helps you avoid input errors and know when mental math or estimation is faster than calculator entry.
If you're struggling with time value of money calculations, annuity formulas, or the relationship between present and future values, you likely need to refresh those Exam FM foundations before diving deep into LTAM. A tutor can quickly assess whether gaps in financial mathematics are holding you back or if your challenge is truly the actuarial-specific material. Often, a focused review of FM concepts—especially how interest rates affect present values—combined with LTAM-specific instruction is the fastest path to exam readiness.
