    IMPORTANT - DO NOT POST ABOUT THE EXAM!

    Again not discussing specifics....one guy near me, left the exam within 2 hours, I got the impression that he just said no way....the looks on peoples faces leaving the hall, said alot to me. I may be mistaken however, lets see. But one further item...it was a very strict way of conducting an...

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    Agree it seems to me that to change the syllabus given the circumstances is them being tin eared.

    IMPORTANT - DO NOT POST ABOUT THE EXAM!

    Promise not to discuss the content..but if you will indulge me one item...having sat the exam in HK I was very surprised with the number of spare desks that were obviously assigned for people to sit but it would appear that they didnt show up.

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    I asked this question previously, those sitting the exam this weekend will receive their results later next month. So the January exams will not form part of the standardisation, whether this means those sitting this weekend will be tougher or easier I dont know. But if I can guess I very much...

    FAQ Exam Exam Day

    Hi, not having sat a FRM exam before I was hoping someone who has can provide me with some information on what is provided. Specifically, how much paper is provided for workings etc to answer questions. It may seem like a silly question but I have read that only minimal paper is provided and you...

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    Its an interesting question and I am not trying to focus on just how this may skew the distribution as its a distraction. Presumably those sitting the exam in October will still receive results in January as promised, and that those that are now sitting the exams in January will be sitting a...

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    Maybe a hypothetical but if the majority of sites are cancelled/rescheduled to January is there a chance that the other sites will also be rescheduled to January?

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    GARP have emailed HK candidates informing them that the exam is taking place as expected on the 24th October but now at a new location.

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    Interesting point, I would say that the situation in HK is potentially three fold given the last 2 exam dates have been cancelled...

    D Disagree with you completely

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    Agree, but try as I might I cannot begin to understand why the exam centre in HK has no record of the site being booked for the exam day if the exam is going ahead as planned. It may well be that the exam site here in HK is simply wrong, but I dont know how it can be. The only explanation that I...

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    wow 10 days leave...fortunate....but it wasn't 3 days notice, it was 1 day notice. On the Wednesday GARP said that the exam was going ahead as planned, then on the Friday morning I woke up to see an email saying that the exam was cancelled.

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    I rang up the exam centre earlier and they tell me that they do NOT have any exams/events scheduled to take place on the 24th October. I dont know what is happening..

    Dont know if reliable but the SCMP is raising the issue that a fourth wave is imminent in Hong Kong

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    Its an appropriate question...by rights I should have it all completed by now. If cancelled again I will need to seriously think if I can waste more time in studying and have these rolling cancellations.

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    Yes I looked at the website as well, I suspect that the venue is simply not bothering to update the website given that there is little activity. I would hope that the exam is going ahead as scheduled in HK, as three successive cancellations is beyond the pale.

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    Not disputing anybody on this, but why would GARP cancel the exams in HK and forget about telling its student...I will wait for the GARP message.
