FRM Cut Off Marks

[David Harper CFA FRM]

HI @ashutoshg No, there is no sectional cutoff: the result is based on the overall only. Please see this post (https://forum.bionicturtle.com/threads/quartiles-and-weights-exam-results.9883/#post-45570) where it is illustrated how "sectional" outcomes can be counter-intuitive precisely because they aggregate to an overall score. I hope that helps!

Hi David

Thanks a lot for replying very quickly. It means if someone gets 4th quartile in any of the 4 topics, one can still manage to pass provided one do exceedingly well in remaining three. Thanks a lot again. You are really helpful.

Hi Nicole
I did not get clear answer from provided hyperlink. Can you tell me? is it mandatory to clear sectional cutoff for passing the FRM level?

There is no sectional cutoff for passing the FRM exam. You may score poor in any two topics and excellent in other two, you may still pass
