Is it cocky/bad karma to...

Wait, so the charter is only 17x22? The way everyone talks about it on here, I thought it would be at least like 24x36 or something.

A guy that works on my floor walked out of 2011-L3 feeling like he owned the world. He passed L1 & L2 on his first try (Dec 09, Jun 10). He thought the exam was reasonable and had one hour left over in both sessions. He was also scoring super high on his mocks. Honestly, he’s a standup guy but was definitely acting a little cocky. He failed band 5 that year and retook/passed in 2012. He was much more humble about the exam the 2^nd time around.

Another guy at my company had become famous for failing L2 4 times and passing on his 5^th try. He took L3 in 2010 and I remember he was sweating it as soon as he left the test center. He ran out of time in the morning and didn’t finish one whole problem and only half of another. He (along with everyone else) assumed he failed but he ended up passing.

Way to piss on my parade pal!

You’re welcome. And my urine is extra stinky due to my ADD meds.

Some other joker a while back wanted rings but he deleted his own posts after a few people ragged on him.

The oversized certificate they give you is bad enough, and you want to add a ring to it.

My manager has his diploma from b-school (Kellogg) and his CFA certificate on the wall in his office. The size difference is ridiculous considering that his b-school diploma is worth 10 times the charter yet only a fraction in size.
