Have you come across companies wanting to look at detailed grades / quartiles while trying to select a person (except maybe campus interviews from a college)? Once the person is selected, it becomes a mere HR formality to submit the Certificate or Gradesheets. Most of the time, I find...

Does it Matter? Short Answer - No Long Answer - It's all in the mind Relax and feel happy. Now you have to just exhibit the 2 yr relevant work ex to get your Certificate.

Similar. L1. I was initially planning for Dec2012 but my wife would have killed me. :) So now it is June 2013.

Which Level will you be appearing for? I am thinking about L1 - but not yet decided about Dec or Jun.

Great! Any plans for CAIA? :) It must be frightfully costly to maintain so many certifications / memberships. Or maybe you are charging them to the employer?

Congratulations Hend. I also started after 40. Family does require more time and there are deterrents that only age will tell :) but on the whole, the feeling is good.

Aleksander. Congratulations. Considering your responses and contribution here, I would say this was expected and well deserved. Congratulations on the personal front also.

I second what Aleksander says. Do not presume that just watching videos or reading brief notes is enough for you to understand the detailed aspects of Risk Management. Try to alternate between watching videos and reading in detail about the topic to get a hold onto the basics. If you are facing...

Rule is - if only one circle is filled, that is taken as your answer. - if more than one circle is filled (2 or 3 or 4), the letter on the side is taken as your final answer. - if you need to change the written letter, blacken it and put another letter.

Relax... proctors do try to explain. Eg: If you have blackened C and then want to change your answer to B - do not erase. Blacken both C and B and write the letter B (the correct answer) in the space provided at the side of the circles.

Precisely :cool:

I had used HB in India - In fact, nobody checked what type pencils anyone was using! Do they check the pencil types in other countries?

I read some of your posts and found that you are a CFA and pretty good at it also. I am planning to appear for CFA L1 this Dec or next Jun. I need some help and advice. Would it be ok for me to mail you? No hurry - you can reply after your FRM exam.

Correct - L1 in Dec, L2 in next Jun and then L3 in the following Jun (Not counting the preparation time for L1 and assuming first time clearance)

This, in fact, is a very good idea. Try to bring your body to the clock as required on the exam day. In addition, try to study during the time scheduled for the exam - for a few days prior to the exam day.

Theta for a long call is always negative. True. However, Theta of a long put always exceeds the theta of a call by a fixed amount. Hence for out-of-money puts, the theta may be positive also. Another concept to be aware of, theta is measured in terms of "time remaining to maturity (T-t)" in...

Hi David, I am a member of BT since 2009 (not a paid one though) and I have benefitted immensely from the forum and practice questions. I cleared my FRM Part2 in Nov 2011. I would still like to be an active member of the forum and would infact like to be part of the forum of paid candidates...

I wanted to share this on this site because it might landed one into a tense situation at the last minute with their site acting up. Please do not leave the registration till the last minute and especially take care if a weekend is towards the last few days. There may be some technical...

Hi David, What is the plan to release content for the Nov exam. Will you be updating the videos or the May exam videos will hold good? Further, how about the supporting material like notes and spreadsheets, what is the schedule? Please publish the schedule for the Nov 2011 exam. Thanks.

I called GARP, US. Problem is now solved.
