I passed level II! I was so worried that I would not. Market Q1, Credit Q1, Operations Q1, Investment Q3, and Current Q2 Thanks so much David & Suzanne! I could not have gotten through this without Bionic Turtle!

Oh and one more thing. There was this one question asking about the Basel Committee's opinion of the Herfindahl–Hirschman Index (about its usefulness). I was like "are you serious?" So needless to say, I guessed on that one lol

Yeah, recently finished L2. It was for sure harder than I thought it would be. I dare even say that it was equally as difficult as L1. I felt like GARP was going out of their way to ask round-about questions. Oh well, we'll see. I'm just glad to be done studying!!!

Yes, good luck! Level 2 tomorrow and have been studying pretty hard. My brain feels like a ripe banana that needs to get eaten before it turns to mush lol.

Alright, so I've watched all the videos three or four times now. Same thing for the study notes and I'm on my 3rd time going through the (BT) practice problems. I went through and seriously did the problems once and now am just sort of looking at the answers this 3rd time around. In addition to...

Hello all, I recently finished the book "All the Devils are Here". I have to say it's one of the better books on the Financial Crisis. IMO, better than Too Big to Fail and The Big Short. I was surprised to see so many things in the book that I've studied for the FRM. If others have read...

I passed woot!!! Q2 Q1 Q1 Q1 Crazy how I got Q2 in supposedly the easier section, but who cares! David you are awesome! I travel so much for my job and there's just no way I could've passed without your help and this site. Congrats to all!

Yes, thanks David. GARP would be better served to under promise and over deliver (but those are academics for you). They are definitely being irresponsible when saying the results will be released on July 6, 2011 and apparently not considering the differences in time zones. It would have been...

It let me register for Part II, but I didn't get any kind of message confirming whether or not I passed. The "why" is just speculation. Anyways, I've been waiting over a month so no biggie to wait a few more hours. I need to pass bc I don't think I have the will to study for Part I again...

I used my AMEX by paying through Paypal. Just have to set up AMEX as a payment source through paypal. It worked for me. Hope that helps.

I'm kind of scared to say this, but I thought the exam was "ok". Ditto on the UL question because I had that formula down cold and wasted a good 5 min on it. No surprise, but I couldn't figure out the swap question with the series of 6 month libors plus the 1.25%(?). It took me a while to come...

I think what will work for me is 25 questions per hour. I'll check the clock when I'm around the 15th question to make sure I'm on track and speed up or slow down accordingly. Of course skip and come back to (if I have time) whatever question seems like it's taking more than 2minutes to figure out.

Thanks for posting. I think it goes back to what David said in one of his webinars. That the questions are much more quantitative than what you would gather from the readings. I started doing practice problems a couple of weeks ago and man it was a rude awakening (especially Hull's chapters on...

Even though I have definitely paid for this service, I received this message last night: The Webinar organizer has denied your request to join the following Webinar: "2011 (February 12th) FRM Level 1 Live Webinar Review (1 of 2)" Saturday, February 12, 2011 9:00 AM - 11:30 PM EST
