    FRM certification

    That's interesting...So they don't look at submissions on a FIFO basis then maybe different people look at CV's by last name or region? I wouldn't worry yet, they still have time before the end of this week. You should get it anytime now! The best part for me yesterday was seeing the...

    FAQ Before Exam FRM exam and study summary

    I wouldn't say FRM is not popular, there are a lot of job postings saying 'CFA or FRM preferred' at least in NYC metro area and there are a lot of different size companies asking for FRM. I am also looking at CFA as a possible next certification. What I find interesting is why do you have to pay...

    FRM certification

    I submitted mine last Saturday, 01/17, I am also curious how long it will take - the site says up to 60 days. When submitting my job descriptions I was getting error messages - invalid characters, basically the website didn't like any characters such as ', -, etc. Though it says "no more than...

    Exam Day Tips

    I would like to add my couple cents for girls. Do not defer the exam if you are pregnant. I worried that with my six month belly I will not be able to sit for four hours. I remembered P1 and how my back was killing me after sitting on the metallic chair for so long. I even went to see if GARP...

    Exam Feedback FRM Part 2 (November 2014) Exam Feedback

    In my opinion, BT questions were extremely helpful and in line with P1, but too easy for P2 (I reviewed them three times, practiced GARP 2011-2014 and end of books questions which were also easy!) It felt after the exam that BT drilled down 100 feet and FRM questions yesterday were a mile...

    Exam Feedback FRM Part 2 (November 2014) Exam Feedback

    It was very difficult for me. I solved all BT problems published here but was quiet surprised to see 95% of qualitative questions on the exam. I wish I had spent more time rereading books instead. There was an error on my paper (I think) with finding number of exceptions and given n=2500 instead...
