    Practice exam scores!

    For what it's worth ... BT questions seem tougher and contain multiple steps (build upon itself) compare to GARP. You only have about 2.5 minutes per question so the calculations will not be as complex for every exam question. Some questions are simply plugging numbers into a formula. Also, you...

    New FRM exam policies

    On a test like this time is important. With smart watches coming on the market it can give a candidate an unfair advantage. If the test site is in a classroom some have clocks in the back of the room only visible to the instructor. Based on the 2015 GARP Exam Policies the proctors will do an...

    New FRM exam policies

    Maybe the cuff links would mark the answer sheet so it could not be scanned. I think the answer sheets are carbon copy like.

    SN Schroeder chapter 5, pg 6

    I am not sure if this has been already discussed. = 1,000,000 ∗ √0.05 ∗ 0.03 + 0.10 ∗ 0.08 = US$ 97,467 Shouldn't .10 be .1o^2? The LR or LGD in the UL formula is squared. This would result in an UL of $47,958.

    @Nixon this is my 1st time using BT. I previously used Schweser. S provided books & power point which seem to be like the Study Notes. I was able to understand S books better then GARP. BT forum seems to be more interactive with Q&A. What I did not like about S was that so much info was packed...

    @ClaudiaM I do agree that the study planner for BT is confusing. As mentioned in other post by BT they are in the process of updating material for 2015. Do you have the 2015 GARP books?
