Official June 2014 CFA LEVEL 3 Results Thread

The journey isn’t over yet. Band 10. FML.

Failed band 10. Pissed off thinking that i have to sacrifice my time again.

I am at work and get the email result while discussing work with someone in front of.my desk. I still opened the email during the discussion after that I was answering just: ok, ok, ok, agree, ok … just so the person can leave.
