Hello Everyone, Wanted to check if anyone has requested for deferral of their exams in Jan 2021 to May 2021 owing to COVID19 situation in their city. I read on some tweets about some folks having received approval for deferral without any additional charges. Did GARP folks respond to your calls...

Oops! Now you know I haven't cleared Level 2 yet:D However, that's informative and nice to learn that. But I wonder why people will opt out ? Due to privacy :eek:? Even CFA has the same option to search CFAs out across the globe.

I had like to think so, but do you think there is any way to opt out ? GARP states that only after one receives the charter, one can claim to be an FRM and merely passing Level 2 isn't enough. Now there might be folks who clear FRM Level2 but don't score the charter which needs additional...

@Nicole Seaman I remember browsing through one comparison sheet that compared the FRM course for Level 1 in 2018 versus 2019. Can you please share the link of the similar sheet related to Level 2, comparing the topics in detail for 2019 vs 2020. That would be of great help! Thanks!

Hi @Sixcarbs I think there is a 'tedious' way to calculate the number:cool:;) but we can only get the total number of FRMs and ERPs combined . Steps: 1. Log into GARP website and use the search functionality to search for 'certified FRMs+ERPs'; we can't distinguish based on program. 2. Select...

Hey @Branislav, I am quoting some pointers i looked out for the part 1 exam: 1. After writing once, one must have already gained a clear understanding of where one is faltering via honest introspection. Once you have identified that start going through concepts once again and try to solve...

I think quartiles are just indicate range of scores of individuals but the pass/fail decision must be based on a definite cut off or plethora of other sub-cutoffs. Now, even if 2 people have same quartiles, they may have different totals marks which might have been crucial in determining the...

Cleared Level 1 with 1312. Thank you @David Harper CFA FRM , Thank you @Nicole Seaman and a Big Thanks to the BT community:D 1 thing that GARP must have realized after going thru this thread is to beta test all their website related changes through BT community:p Wish you all a Happy New Year 2020!!

I guess they were able to check from 26 June as per the link below:confused:: https://forum.bionicturtle.com/threads/may-2019-part-1-exam-feedback.22457/page-7

makes sense...subjectively the probability of the price drop near the 'current market price' will be higher than that's far off...don't know what thoughts plagued me to land at 62.5%:eek:

It was stock price as per my note that i made immediately after the getting out of the exam venue. Considering a 'uniform, linear decline' emphasized in the question, i felt the question was worded in a tricky way to confuse candidates but since the assumption was 'linear and uniform decline' ...

I think both BSM and BinoTree assume constant volatility, don't they ? Don't remember this option being there in the redbooklet qs

I did the exact opposite while marking the answers:confused:

1-.375=62.5% P = 1- (15 - 0) / (40 - 0) = 0.625 i.e. assuming it's decreasing from 40 to 16. Please let me know your thoughts.

I also thought that to be the answer initially but how it can 'decrease' from 0 to 40 ;) ? Forgive me if I am mistaken

Absolutely, I even remember the question. The ask was 'volatility' => sqrt( variance of today) but the answer was nowhere. I wasted some time on this before being sure that I am not goofing up somewhere. However, it's best to wait check the feedback of the community as exam pressure can make one...

Hi Guys, I had the red booklet. I felt 2 questions had incorrect answers listed. They are the Q1 and Q2 in the list below. Please let me know if anybody else also faced this same dilemma. 1. EWMA related Lamda=.89 Return = 4.02% Volatility = 2.07% Ask: volatility of today?<Error in options...

Context: Black Scholes Merton Model for put option valuation Hi David Considering that the N(-D1) and N(-D2) values aren't provided in the question wrt FRM PT1 exam and we need to decipher than from the Z table (http://learn.bionicturtle.com/images/2018/forum/082718-t4-815-1-zlookup.jpg ) , I...
