I’m in a different time zone so the results are posted at 3pm my time…needless to say I have no problem being more than a few beers deep @ 19h30
Where do you see bands? I keep seeing failed band 10 etc
« To Cosmos1 »: I wish you the best and hope you are ok now!
Thank you s2000!! Your website is amazing and was absolutely critical in getting my head around derivatives. Looking forward to using it again for L3

LET’S GET HAMMERED! (after work like responsible adults).
Lol. Currently opening my 2nd bottle of vino and it’s not even 2pm. Perks of taking the day off (in true school girl fashion)
Awesome! haha. Second bottle implies there’s a fourth right?
Here’s my breakdown, passed on my first attempt but it was a close one. Having my CAIA definitely helped - Alts/Der & Fixed Income saved my ass. Congrats again to those who passed this time, and best of luck next year to those who did not. We’re all in this together.
Alts & Der > 70 (90th percentile line)
CF > 70
Econ 50-70
Equity 50-70
Ethics 50-70
Fixed Income > 70 (90th percentile line)
FRA 50-70
PM 50% (on the line)
Quant 50-70
hmmm Kinda sweeter than expected, 70 up in all whew!!
Passed level 2 on first attempt, 1 year after my first attempt on level 1
> 70% in Corp Fin, Econ, Ethics, Fixed Income, Portfolio Mgt and Quant Methods
50 to 70% in Alt and Deriv, Equity Inv (these 2 ones barely above 50%) and FRA (this one just below 70%)
That is a much better score than L1 where I had barely passed.
Thank you!

Passed
Congratulations, Merseyside.

You’re quite welcome.
No bands this year. The institute changed the format in which results were presented.
Passed!!
A real big « THANKS » to S2000. Not only really kind but also devoted to explain complicated things simply to others for free with a kind of passion that I wish I had.
Thanks again and I am sure that this is not the last time I thank him.
Passed.
>70%: Quant, Equity, FI, Ethical Standards, Corp Finance
50 - 70%: Alternative & Derivatives
<50%: Econ, Accounting, Portfolio Management

This year was my second attempt. Last year I was at band 9. And this yeat I did not pass again.
I am not sad but I am fueled with anger and annoyance after looking at my scores. This completely unacceptable. I am not going to give this exam again anymore. Even after having the below scores if I have failed, then what more of motivation is left to prepare again next year.
Alternate & Derivatives - 70+
PM - 70+ (on 90% line)
CF - 70+
Fixed Income - 70+
FRA - 70+
Quant - 70+
Equity - between 50 to 70
Ethics - between 50 to 70
Economics - less than 50 and even less than 10%
I don’t have any motivation to give this exam anymore.
How the heck do those scores translate into a fail? Econ’s weight is very low. There’s no way it dragged you down that much even if you scored 0% in Econ.
I really don’t know. I am not even sure if a Retabulation is going to be of any help. This score should have easily sufficed.
Thanks Bill !

Passed!!
