Anyone able to apply for the 2018 scholarship? I am able to, is that telling?

1 box and this is my second time taking it. not super confident.

That’s what we’re here to figure out haha :slight_smile:

same here, second time as well. not super confident either. like i said, left a whole subsection blank worth 4 or 5 points. and that one “undercover” section in the PM that I was originally so reliefed wasn’t there was back to haunt me when i got to that section. Ya’ll know what im talking about :wink:

haha we are the 1 box wet blankets. sorry guys. um also i know which section you’re talking about and i wouldn’t call it undercover. think about what book its in

hahaha that’s clutch :slight_smile: yeah i was chugging along, and then i saw it, and i was FML…oh well. At least we know our weaknesses :slight_smile:

Why are you guys doing this to yourselves? At least the guys last year waited until the day before release day to go absolutely friggin bonkers. Also, there’s a reasonable chance the MPS hasn’t even been set yet (it’s on the timeline for this week) so without an MPS there’s no way the results have been loaded to our accounts.

Week 7 (current week): Board sets MPS for Level III

Week 8: Final QC conducted on Level III

Week 9: Process Level III results internally and QC

Week 10: Release Level III results

My guess is Week 9 is when the exam results are loaded into the account system when they “process Level III results internally”. Yes the scholarship thing was a tell last year but not 3 weeks before the release date.

dude speaks the truth

Well I apologize in advance. Legend has it that some performance matricies were released on L3 alongside with L1 and L2 in 2015. Can’t confirm but that’s what they said. So if history repeats itself, then it could be possible that it is in the system? But you’re right, we’re probably all freaking out over nothing.

2 boxes. I studied a lot. I would probably be more surprised with a fail than a pass, although it’s hard to say with any real degree of certainty. I left nothing blank for whatever that is worth.

Not legend, it actually happened. Agreed that the scores could already be in the system but also agree we are freaking out (and really shouldn’t be). Sorry to add fuel to the fire, guys.

Applied for Scholarship and now withdrawn, 2 boxes showing (previously a 1 box).

Feelings on exam are 50-50; felt like I shot a birdie on the AM and a bogey on the PM.

Logic would suggest 1 box would be the pass. Think this has a weak chance of being a true tell but fun to speculate :stuck_out_tongue:

give it a few minutes. i feel like this weak site has to be “stabalized” lol

Yeah I remember that, and found the discussion thread about it (https://www.analystforum.com/forums/cfa-forums/cfa-level-iii-forum/91344537). Definitely not a legend.

But this incident was still over a week from where we are now (late July 2015).

Agreed - just fun to speculate. Unless anyone has insight into when the actual board meeting occurred (is that announced / published?), I’ll maintain that they (in all likelihood) pick a score release date that they know they’re going to achieve so they won’t disappoint or have delays. The timeline is likely overly conservative so they don’t disappoint.

Yeah I agree. Well (since it’s not a legend anymore) apparently they have it already in their system for L3 candidates at the same time as L1 and L2 so I guess that counts as pretty conservative. Plus you can’t expect them to be working on the weekends so Wednesday (today) is from my thinking, a good indicator of them having at least something in their databases since you can’t count next tuesday since results will be released in the morning.

They also release the pass rates a day or two before the actual release so it’s definitely in the system for sure before then. But man, I’m just speculating too :slight_smile:

I can still see the access scholarship box on my program page. It says status registered even though I’ve withdrawn. Am I doing this correctly?

I was reasonably confident I had passed…until now!..I scored 80+ on both AM / PM multiple choice mocks from CFAI and wrote tons of old AM exams.

Feel terrible now after checking this, wish I hadn’t!

Retaker here.

Last year I failed (2 boxes was a tell the day before, it was heartbreaking).

Checked this year - I had 2 boxes, when started/withdrew an application and now have 1.

Add me to your list

You can add me to the list too. Feel like I will be right near the MPS, just hoping I land above it.

Meant to specify… I no longer have the “Access Scholarship” link
