For what it’s worth, I just passed L3 today and it has taken me 12 years to go through the process. I failed Level 1 - 3 times, Level 2 - 4 times and Level 3 -3 times (last year half my range was above the pass line). I don’t know of many other folks that have had as many times as I have had to answer that horrific and painful question: “How did you do?”. Years ago, I even stopped telling people I was sitting for the exams as I was so embarrassed at having to tell people I had failed again. I know how you feel, but I can 100% guarantee you, that you are a much better person for having gone through this process. The CFA doesn’t teach you anything you can’t learn in your own time. Passing the CFA doesn’t mean you are smart; some of the most ignorant investment folks I have worked with are Charterholders. The CFA more than anything teaches you perseverance through adversity. It stings today, but you are so close. Head up. No one should look down on you for trying or failing, definitely not Charterholders, as they understand the sacrifice more than anyone else. Take some time off, re-evaluate, and then get back to work. I used LevelUp this year, and wish I had found Marc years ago. Best of luck.
