Anyone else is sick of waiting for this damn thing to get released…seems like time is going slower as we get closer to the DAY!!
the wait is killing me… dubya tee effff!
Ditto here… this is a miserable week of waiting. I guess we will have the results soon enough…
I feel your pain.
Not to quibble, but I’d think that if you don’t like waiting for the results, then by definition you do not have them soon enough.

It will all be worth it when… -You go to the cfa website at around 9 am on tuesday -Your heart is racing -You cant believe its tuesday august 18th - You forget your username and password -Have to reset your password - Your heart is pounding even more - You finally log in - Click on “Your L3 Results” - The way your monitor is set up, you have to scroll down to review the outcome - I physically place my hand over the actual outcome and briefly scan my ranges - I am short of breath - I remove my hand quickly and i see PASS - I yell out a scream, slam the desk and have a huge smile on my face - I immediately take a screen print and email everyone I know in BCC with submject line " Passed Level 3" - I will go and make a comment on my facebook page that the CFA is over !!!
nope!

Why do you do this? I am honestly wondering, not bashing you at all.

I am honestly wondering, not > bashing you at all. I was thinking the same thing. I could care less about all the other stuff, the first thing I want to see come up on the screen is a big bold PASS. The rest would just be torture for me.
because i want to know if i have to be prepared for a fail. i don’t know. maybe its habit. i used to do that in school. look at the answers, see how many i got right, then guess what i got conservatively and i often got higher. maybe i did it to make myself feel better about doing well b/c i never did poorly. its nice to think, i’d be happy with a 90 and get a 95. same goes for this, i feel confident based on the ranges, so its okay to feel like i should see pass. or the other way, its in the air so i should be prepared for a fail. i’m never prepared for a fail.
Yeah, no question, it’s now pretty tricky to play the strange, solitary guessing game you’ve described rather than just looking at the results one has been waiting more than two months for. CFAI should definitely do something about that.
