It’s a grueling process.
Temporal Method?
Yeah, I got this e-mail. Psyched to see I’ll get the results back sooner - only what, four short weeks? Terrifying but in a good way.
This is hilarious! I would not have wanted to wait for an email to hit the inbox. I know it was slow logging in, but at least you knew when it was coming. This is going to be torture.

I like the email system (I was in the early distribution though).

Not only Ethics should be passed, but also all the questions considered “easy” (for which first they have to find out which questions are “easy”). Something like that. Still a long process though

Still a long > process though Each exam is also hand checked to ensure the scantron didn’t pick up an erase mark or smudge. Plus, the CFAI has to have their exam committee meet to discuss what questions, if any, should be thrown out. I always understood that it was a long process but the additional month it took to grade L2 exams was extreme.
They do not hand check every exam, they take a sample (~10%?) to make sure the scantron is working properly.
I just got my FRM results, passed. Will receive certificate in 3 months.
