This is the longest thread ever! I just can’t peel myself off my phone to drive myself home.
This is a lesson for us and for all future generations of CFA candidates not to start checking results early, it won’t do you any good! And now trying to come up with what to tell co-workers and family tomorrow again, this really sucks! Confidence is gone and hope is leaving me as I keep analyzing today’s tell in my head… (also had “you are not registered” while people were seeing congrats
I’m sticking with my view that if it said congrats it almost certainly was legit but if it didn’t say congrats there’s not too much you can read into it.
Hello everyone, joined AF as of yesterday, and just like y’all, was sh**ting enough bricks to build the Pyramids exactly 2 weeks back when my L2 results came out. I know most of you are nervous about the L3 results tomorrow, but as a brand new L3 candidate, wanted to get your opinions on L3 compared to L2 on the following queries.
On a scale of 10, how difficult is L3 compared to L2? (I have heard people say this is a the easiest of all the 3 levels, but statistically, 50% of the people who pass L2 trip up on L3, so the whole L3 is easiest looks a bit fuzzy to me)
Any wise advice on how to prepare for and tackle the AM session, because from what I heard, that is where people trip up the most.
That is all. Good luck to all you folks for tomorrow’s results, and last but not the least, MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU ALL!!
Same here. If this would have been a “1 box,” “2 box” tell, I would have thought it was sheer BS, but since it literally showed “Congratulations” to candidates of which I was not included. Then my hopes of passing have greatly diminished! Sad really!
Better asked tomorrow after 9am ET
You really can’t wait one day or at least start a separate topic? :’)
lol ya wrong thread bra
Band 10, did not see the “Congratulation” cause I knew about this “Tell” more than 2 hours after the fact. Who knows?
Interesting that it didn’t mention that candidates saw “Congratulations…”
yes, that was for level I/II, dated august 14th.
Hope I didn’t make that kind of oversight error on the exam! 
Here’s what I’d say. Regardless of what anyone did or didn’t see this AM, I’m pretty sure that you can’t get excited/down either way. I saw the congratulations and nothing will be worse than getting official results tomorrow to see the opposite. If you didn’t see it, I don’t really even think you should sweat it especially if you felt like you put yourself in a position to pass. Most people didn’t see it and I’d bet that plenty of those who didn’t see it won’t get a bad email tomorrow. The pass rate is roughly over 50% generally, so plenty more people will get good news.
Tommy, I did not leave any AM questions blank, I’ve seen you’ve asked a couple times. I wrote some answers though that were pure guesses, so is it even better?
Personal advice - turn off AF for the next 16 hours. Tomorrow you’ll find out officially what happened, and so will I. Best of luck, homies.
I came in Band 10 last year. My heart can’t take this!
Darn, I missed all the drama today. I came in expecting people wishing best of luck to everybody but instead saw this ugliness. Anyway, best of luck to everyone.
What time do results come out?
9:00 AM Eastern Time
Come on bro, how do you get to level 3 and not know this?
You got this, I know it. Infact, I’m willing to make a bet on it. I $1,000.00 says this guy passes, anyone?
Wasn’t in the curriculum
Ok, i’m not EVEN seeing the CFA Program when I go to “My Account”>Programs. It’s showing CIPM??? what the? I guess that’s a fail then
