Dear David,
I could not believe I managed to pass the FRM Exam! All credits go to your support and your materials - I am so happy that I did join Bionic Turtle
. I would like to share my experience to other people who is considering taking FRM in 2009.
Profile: I have been working as a risk consultant in a Big 4 for slightly more than one year (it's my first job). My background was Accounting.
Preparation: Because I have very little experience/financial knowledge, I religiously followed your advice!
- I read most of the core readings (probably around 70% of total readings)
- I watched all of your movies and did most of the practice questions
- I read your notes as soon as they're publised and read them again during 3 weeks before exam.
- I did 2008 and 2007 practice exam questions
- I also looked at some of your Excel sheets - only the topics I need further clarification.
Time: I studied since the beginning of 2008, mostly on weekends. I think It took me longer than most people due to my limited experience and knowledge.
My Score: I managed to access the analysis once this morning and my score is quite funny!
Qant, Credit Risk and Operational Risk - 1st Q
Market Risk and Investment Risk - 3rd Q
As you can see, I have 2 3rd Q so I think I must be one of the last few ppl to pass!
Basically, I don't think I was smart or knew a lot about risks. I just worked hard! For ppl thinking the exam in 2009, I would recommend you to follow David's suggestion religiously. It's really really important!
David - I would like to send you something as a token of appreciation in your support as I could not have done it without your help. Could you please email me your address?? Thank!
Regards,
