Exam Feedback November 2019 Part 2 Exam Feedback

[Detective]

I wish this forum had a quote button.

@Amarnadh D
From what I read there should be no bias on the recency of the experience, only the quality of the experience. Financial risk is broad and operational risk management certainly is a subset of that risk. Maybe post a draft 4-5 sentences you would hypothetically post, so we can give feedback.

@kangning0125
Can you clarify where you saw that language, in an email? Regardless I am fairly confident it means it won’t officially be available until January 2. I have not heard of them releasing results in waves. Imagine the chaos of candidates concerned why they haven’t received results if distribution followed a Poisson Process or something similar. I’m not sure if January 2nd means tomorrow night midnight EST or Thursday morning EST though. That being said, if I were a betting man, I’d wager that you can probably figure out if you passed or failed sometime tomorrow by changing Windows time on your PC.

One should have received an email two weeks before the exam from 'FRM Exam' with the subject line 'Last reminders for the November 16, 2019..'
The third last question and answer in the email reads
'When do I learn if I passed or not?
Exam results - pass or fail - will be sent via email no later than January 2, 2020.'
I’ve attached the image of the same earlier in this thread (message #126)

Seems that this time GARP has paid its IT well!

Seems more robust and less susceptible to 'date' tricks.

https://my.garp.org/resource/1577739238000/sfdcApp/js/garp.js

myApp.directive("dateIsInFuture", [ "garpTime", function(garpTime) {
return {
require: "ngModel",
link: {
pre: function(scope, elem, attrs, ctrl) {
var examData = attrs.examDate;
ctrl.$parsers.unshift(function(viewValue) {
if (!viewValue) return ctrl.$setValidity("dateIsInFuture", !0), viewValue;
"[object Date]" !== Object.prototype.toString.call(viewValue) && (viewValue = new Date(viewValue));
var unixTime = viewValue.getTime();
return 0 < garpTime.isBeforeTwoDates(unixTime, parseInt(examData)) ? ctrl.$setValidity("dateIsInFuture", !0) : ctrl.$setValidity("dateIsInFuture", !1),
viewValue;
});
},

Clearly a real life example of operational risk!

May be if you use a proxy that shows your in new Zealand (now its around 10 PM 1 Jan), so in two hours it will be 2 Jan. So it might pass the future date validity test....

 

[frmtrial2019]

the script says this:

return 0 < garpTime.isBeforeTwoDates(unixTime, parseInt(examData)) ? ctrl.$setValidity("dateIsInFuture", !0) : ctrl.$setValidity("dateIsInFuture", !1),

That means it will check the garp server time if your time is more than garp server time

So its going to be available to the whole world at the same time. When do usually they post the results what time ?

 

[chintanmatalia]

2nd Jan, 12 am Eastern Time (New York)

 

[almangour]

so 19 hours, 29 minutes and 43 seconds left

 

[Aditya Bhat]

2nd Jan, 12 am Eastern Time (New York)

what would be the time in india and date?

 

[DesNewman]

No it should be at the first instance of 2nd January in the world, as far as I know. For part 1, it was available in South Africa when I woke up that morning, which is 12hrs earlier than the 2nd in EST

 

[chintanmatalia]

what would be the time in india and date?

In India, it would be 10:30 am
