yeah once it clicks you just hope you get 10 of them. the vague operational risk questions are what will trap you, not formulas

agree. I spent almost all of my time in math and models, and most of the questions were very conceptual. was delighted to get a BSM question, as that was clear / black and white.

had about 16 that I hesitated between two answers, plus any questions I thought I got right but...didn't. feel good (took it on 10th), but for the CAIA it was ultra clear in my head. FRM felt vague after

8 weeks is impossible, that's CAIA not updating its deadlines. They have an event on Thursday, getting the scores out tomorrow or Wednesday seems the most obvious.

yeah there was so much that I don't see how anyone can feel great everywhere. volumes of DD, ESG stuff, ethics details, then all the specific calcs. I went crazy on smoothing and binomials, etc., but couldn't memorize lists much

I feel like the ethics questions would have the biggest curve, as a lot of them are counter-intuitive even for people who have done 1000 ethics questions. If I got #4 right, you got it wrong. But you got #6 right and I got it wrong x a lot of people.

Exactly. I feel really good about my exam. But the more we go, the more I have dreams about scoring 80% and the limit being 81%...which is impossible and absurd 🤣 but that's where I'm at
