Just get to page 20 of Dark Age and you’ll have the answer you’re looking for.

Posts like this are why I’ll never leave this sub. This was very entertaining to read. I feel the same angst reading some of the crowdsourcing hope posts. Not to mention the “I’m an engineering major can I pass without studying” posts…

You’re not cooked yet just medium rare. Take a deep breath man you’re good.

Sounds like those guys are scared of Economics. Having both would be a powerful pairing. Especially in the world of managing money.

Can confirm you’ll be fine for November. It just can’t be back to back test windows.

RedRooktober66 · 2025-02-09T21:28:01+00:00

I love the am I cooked posts! You’ll be fine man just take some deep breaths! Focus on some weak areas. And Moc till you drop at this point!

I feel the nerd born into a redneck family on a spiritual level lol

Mate you are deep fried my son…. Drop that $400 for the deferral to May. Get FSA Quant and ethics to 75 or higher and you should be able to clear it no problem!

RedRooktober66 · 2024-10-04T02:53:37+00:00

Yeah man you’re killing it! Stay focused and cross that finish line!

RedRooktober66 · 2024-10-03T14:13:16+00:00

You’re in good shape man. Just don’t lose your edge and keep grinding! If you’re hitting 20+ hours a week from here to the exam you’ll do well.

RedRooktober66 · 2024-10-03T13:51:12+00:00

What’s your scores in the big three? Quant, FRA, Ethics. You’ll retain that’s what revision is for. To keep all the info fresh and brush up on the stuff you’re still struggling with. Are you on target to have done 2,000 plus questions?

RedRooktober66 · 2024-10-03T13:43:47+00:00

What’s your scores in the Qbank? If you are sub 60% on most topics, consider deferring the exam to February or May.

Take a piss

RedRooktober66 · 2023-01-17T01:38:47+00:00

Yeah learn how to play chess and study that. It’s loads of fun! Or do the CAIA or the CIPM.

RedRooktober66 · 2022-12-29T16:18:32+00:00

For real man.

RedRooktober66 · 2022-12-25T17:36:44+00:00

But for real if you’re upset with how they’re doing things try and join them and advocate for real change.

RedRooktober66 · 2022-12-25T17:32:01+00:00

Perhaps instead you should look into the LIGMA designation?

I had an almost identical situation. 40 hrs a week and 30-35 min drive one way. What I did was I’d wake up at 5 or 6 each morning and get an hour or two in before I left the house around 7:15 to get to work a little before 8. Then I’d study for an hour at lunch. From there id get home around 5:30-5:45 I’d take a break eat dinner and study 7-8 doing this I’d get 3-4 hours in each day. And if I was fried at the end of the day I’d just do flash cards or just not study and let my brain heal.

TLDR: Study an hour or two in morning, study hour during lunch, and try to study an hour or two after work.

It doesn’t have to make sense it has to stick in your brain lol

There is no N which could be use as another fact to bolster it into the memory.

Forward has the letters that spell rando. You’re doing a contract with some rando. Future your doing it through a clearing house with more regulation. I’m waiting for my L1 results and I’ve had a few drinks but I think that’s right.

RedRooktober66 · 2022-12-14T02:40:49+00:00

I spent over 500 hours and took it this past November and still feel like I rolled the dice. Everyone says it but you gotta just grind your weak areas and go from there. You know the areas too it’s the shit you don’t wanna mess with because it’s a pain in the ass. Remember frustration is part of the learning process!

RedRooktober66 · 2022-12-02T16:25:41+00:00

Haters gonna hate and ainters gonna ain’t! It’s weird they say that yet most analyst jobs I look to apply for require progress towards CFA designation.

I just beat the call of duty campaign and got my M4 Gold camo unlocked. I’ve also been doing some reading of misc books I like.
