please can you tell me what do you mean by writing on upper of your home bage that the pass rate is 73%? because I know that the pass rate is less?

@hellohi That pass rate represents the average of three surveys (aggregated) conducted of our (BT) customers; the actual exam pass rate (of all test takers) is lower. Thanks,
thanks dear sir

that mean when the pass rate of GARP FRM part 1 candadates is 45% your (BT) average customers pass rate is 73%, this make me optimistic because I am now one of your customers :)

thanks again

Hi @hellohi it's actually a fully aggregated (ie, no stratification), cumulative (i.e., over three trailing years), blended number (ie., combines responses to P1 and P2). However, we didn't break it out because we didn't get a big difference between our P1 and P2 passing rates (compared to the exam's historical tendency to run about the P2 pass rate +10% (+/-) above the P1). So, it's just an overall P1+P2 average, but I still think it should give you confidence :)

I like your language "historical tendency" :) , let say part 1 (BT) pass rate is about 60%, it is far better than 45% or 42% , and I really got a real push when I begun use your material for studying in addition to GARP official books, thanks

dear David

I asked about the FRM part 1 BT formula sheet, and Nicole answerd me that it is not up dated with the new changes in 2016 material, but when I read some bages of this sheet I find it very useful and written in a professional manner, so I liked to use it, so can you help me with some tips how to fill the gap to be full document with all updates?

best regards,
Nabil

Hi @Nabil I have the formula sheet on my list of items to update this semester (ie, before the exam). But I am happy to assist with any question (however, can I request you start a new thread only because this thread is specifically for May 2016 Part 2 Exam Feedback). Thanks!

Hello @Tipo

For the November 2015 exam, they said the results would be released January 5th. The first post on our forum stating that a member passed was on January 4th. https://forum.bionicturtle.com/thre...t-2-frm-exam-feedback.9165/page-13#post-39324 ;)

Could that just be due to the time difference between US and India (or any other country). For US ET - it was 10:30PM of the 4th when it was 9:00 AM in India of the 5th of Jan; it was 7:30 PM of the 4th in California.
