I don't think there's one right answer to this question. My guess is that it was probably much like the other ones.

Whether that means it was hard or not is a function of prior knowledge and mastery of the subjects underlying the exam, as well as productive time spent preparing for the exam.

I say 'productive time' since you can be productive and do the Bionic Turtle questions, or you can be less productive by doing the Kaplan practice questions instead.

Honestly Nabil, what answers do you expect to your question here?
Those who studied well, practiced hard on questions, and have more quantitative backgrounds will tell you it was easy...those who didn't won't.

Sorry, but if you're searching for solace you won't find it by asking this question.

Besides, it's over now, and the subject has been over discussed through the past week. All that could've been said has already been said over the other thread.

Think positively, and I wish you good luck.

It's an open-ended question but I would say (I had the P1 exam last week) FRM candidates must have been WELL prepared if they used BT materials thoroughly, especially BT practice questions.

Personally, there is no way I can find out whether I will pass or fail until Jan 2 but the best thing I can do for now is to start preparing Part 2. P2 topics seem to be VAST... so it is time to conquer these topics slowly, but surely...

It seems that my question is not appropriate, and also as dear colleague Hend said , I am looking for solace, Hend despite your judgments is harsh somewhat but mostly you say the truth, dears Alexander and RiskNoob I am very grateful for your answers, hope later to find better subject to discuss about.

Sorry Nabil, didn't mean to judge you.

Be optimistic, God willing the results will be in your favor.

thanks Hend, you know that i respect you, I am optimistic somewhat, the last time I was sure the lack of success despite I think I was near of succeed (3323), but this time I am optimistic cause I could find the right solutions for more than half of the exam questions and i was sure about the answers.
