It would be a violation of the Standards of Professional Conduct if the CFAI doesn’t take reasonable efforts to ensure that anyone subject to their supervision or authority complies with the Code and Standards.
Sounds like Standard IV, C??
I’m in Singapore, and I had 2010 AM and 2011 PM…

I knew fixed income really well so I was ok with it in the PM, I also found derivatives easier in the PM than AM. With that said I had studied the PM derivatives stuff really in depth because a friend who wrote the exam a couple times before had told me he got questions exactly like what we got a few years ago on consecutive exams. It didn’t show up on last years so I had a strong feeling it might come up again so thankfully for me that study time paid off. I struggled with econ and quant, never have done well on that stuff. And alt investments I only know forsure I got the last question correct, the first five questions I think I maybe got 2/5 for a 3/6 total on that item set.
Based on what I’ve been reading on here it seems almost 100% there are different versions of the test and my guess is that the form numbers that they get you to check on both the bubble sheet and the booklet are what identifies the different versions of the test. I think ours were 2010 in the AM and 2011 in the PM? I’d be willing to bet that other people in different time zones had different form numbers.

Yeah I believe that was are form numbers. I would also say we had an orange book. Hopefully mentioning that the exam booklet was Orange is not a violation
