CFA

OK ... by some miracle and an obvious marking error, I passed CFA level 1 exam. I've been trying to ignore it as I was certain that I failed. I've been trying to be a bit blase about it too.

But truthfully, I was there on the website, 10 minutes before the result was released and refresh my web-browser exactly at 2pm London time. OK yeah I admit it I was a bit anxious to find out about the result.

It took me at least 5 minutes to login. It timed out initially but it went through the second go. For a few seconds I can't believe that I see the word "PASS" there. Phew .... I guess all that hard work didn't go to the drain after all.

The incredulous feeling soon turned to joy and a few seconds later turned ugly, because you know what this means? I have to do Level 2 now! Arghhh ....

Well I can't really complain now, I'm rather happy that I passed. Yeah it's not all >70 like some people did, but I pass alright. I even got >70 in Economics of all subject. That is the one subject I was absolutely certain I will fail.

Turned out that I failed in Portfolio Managed (<50) and so so in Alternative Investment (50-70). The rest are >70.

Good times :)
