CFA Level III
#121

2012 December CFA I passed

2013 June CFA II passed

2014 June CFA III failed

i am still digesting it

truth is too sad to accept I have never failed any exam in my whole life.

I wish I were in a dream

somebody please wake me up

…

27 female and married, I thought I could finally get my family life back.but no, another year of work/study fatigue.

you guys can study while have babies but I don’t think that’s an option for me.

congratulations to those who passed.

by the way I said I felt bad about PM

i was right.

sorry I’m too embarrassed to post my results.

If you failed it’s not the end of the world. My history was like this:

Level 1 - failed twice

Level 2 - failed three times

Level 3 - failed twice

Finally passed in 2013. So if you really want the charter then keep at it.

#132

Keep your head up! As hard as it sounds: Failing is part of the CFA experience for most of us. You are still young and you can delay exams. You have a lot of options! Don’t give up!!!

#133

Failed Band 7 - Congrats to those who passed - those who haven’t, heads up, there will be a next time.

Failed. Not even close, not band 10.

My husband managed pass all his at his first attempt at each level and with flying colour… we used to work in the same bank same department. At the moment I feel more sorry for him than for me… It must be pretty depressing to watch me failing not only the first time for Level III

#135

Passed! email at 9:25am EST:

Pass :slight_smile:

#137

hugs… l hope we can both make it next year…

#138

PASS! I could not be happier right now…

For those who didn’t make it this year…keep your head up. I was band 3 last year and was able to make it back and pass this year.

“But it ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward.”

#139

Failed, band 5. I’m not as bummed about failing as I am aboutit being band 5. Like I really feel helpless and hopeless. Any of the people in the lower bands feeling this? It’s like I don’t know if I wanna retake this thing because it wasn’t even close.

Anyway I’m genuinely happy for those who passed. Congratulations.

#140

Passed … AM was much better than expected … PM slightly worse … Overall broadly inline with expectations

Was amazed by wife’s reaction … was happier than me …realized how much it meant to her … She has been a big support in my completing the program in shortest possible time.

Thanks to everyone on AF for all the help … especially S2000magician … You are just amazing Sir … Please continue your awesome work

Cheers to everyone who passed today … and Best wishes to those who would go at it again next year
