Results tomorrow!

I have to say I felt super confident coming out of the exam, really thought “yup, I nailed that!!”…however with the passage of time your mind starts to play tricks on you, so now I’m thinking “what if…”

But yeah, overall I feel relatively confident (at the risk of looking very silly tomorrow), but just want to get my result now…sick of waiting.

Best of luck @simply_complex2‌ @Stuj79‌ and all Dec 2014 candidates!

i’m in the same boat as @Stuj79, whenever I have doubts about the results I go to my quiet place and think for a while over every section in the exam and tell myself I’m over the 70% hurdle…annnd then 10 minutes later I start again. frustrating. The only upside for me is, since I’m not eligible for the L2 exams in June, I get two more chances (which I prefer not to take) before I take the L2, so…but all in all I won’t be sleeping tonight (whether or not I pass or fail) since the results are emailed to me at 1:00am local time.

Hey everyone! 

I am just trying to keep myself as busy as possible, so that I don’t keep on obsessing about the results till they finally hit the inbox! But I guess what we all need to do is, be calm, be positive and be prepared to face whatever is written in that email. I am sure that we’ll reap the fruits of our efforts!

All the best to everyone! May the force be with us! (following @simply_complex2‌’s lead)

Jessica 🙂 

Good luck everybody!!!!!   <3 <3 <3 <3

Well less than 4 hours to go now. Tried to sleep as much as I could so I don’t need to obsess over the results. Now I’m just playing video games to take my mind off it. The sad part is that knowing that I’ve passed will only give me relief rather than make me overjoyed because there are no marks. But if I fail I will feel shattered … 6 months of hard work and all that money is just too much to accept failure.

Good luck @RoyD‌! What game are you playing? 🙂

FIFA 14 :# 2.5 hours more to go.

Slightly less than an hour to go!

Also, I received  the rare little good luck charm badge from 300 hours! That did make me feel lucky and slightly relaxed. 

I’m taking that as a sign that good things are about to hit the inbox in sometime… 

Absolutely cannot wait any longer!

*fingers crossed*

Jessica 🙂

Pass rate of 44%, up from June 2014’s 42% 🙂 A good sign already people!

Fifteen minutes up. Not that I’m obsessing  or anything  either  😉

Awesome, well done guys (on average)! Hopefully the pass rate continues to increase in June 2015 🙂

wohoo!!! I PASSED  🙂 I WAS SO EXCITED I PUT MY HAND ON THE STOVE WHEN IT WAS ON BUT I DONT EVEN CARE!

LOL that is a great reaction. Congrats @simply_complex2‌!

@simply_complex2‌ I laughed out loud in the office – but congrats, well done, and hope you see a doctor about that hand!

25 mins gone … still no mail. God this is killing me!

I’m with @RoyD‌, almost 30 minutes with no email. Just a minor freak out session going on here at work waiting…

Failed. Band 7. Damn.

@dphauser‌ I’m just trying to do whatever I can to calm my nerves right now. This forum, Facebook, reading movie reviews. Just so freaking out right now and every minute’s just adding to the pressure.
@simply_complex2 I don’t think mine will be in junk because all emails I’ve ever received from the institute arrive directly in my inbox.

such a relief! I passed!  @simply_complex2 congrats! Hope your hand is fine now 🙂

That email seems to be crawling from New York to Mumbai  😐 I’m beginning to flip now.

btw sorry I for ignoring but Congrats @simply_complex2‌ and @Jennifer‌.
@edmundbp83 I feel for you.

Didn’t get the mail either. This shit is creepier than a horror movie. 
If I ever meet a ghost, ill probably  say, ” Gave the cfa bro.  You don’t scare me. ” 

No offence to any ghosts out there. Please treat this as a friendly joke. 🙂 

Is it ok to cry??? Because after all those months of hardwork, stress and madness I have actually freaking PASSED! Thank you all, I love you all!

I am part of that 44% 🙂 Gonna go drink a beer or five!!!!

Congrats @RoyD‌, @simply_complex2‌ and @Jennifer‌! I’m still waiting. You’d think NY -> Charlotte wouldn’t take this long…

70+ in everything except FRA (50-70). Stress? What stress?

I am excited for 5 o’clock to hit so I can go grab a drink as well to celebrate passing! Way to crush the test @RoyD‌ 

Yayyy passed! Got my results after a 30 minute excruciating wait…but am I anyone to complain? Soooo excited!!!

Awesome results everyone! I’m so proud 🙂

whew, what a relief! >70% in 5 sections, 51% – 70% in the other 5

Amazing @RoyD‌! Did you check on where you stand comparatively in our reader database? You can check here: http://www.300hours.com/level-i-results.html

wow….such a relief. I think I haven’t been more excited to receive an email than today :smiley: Congrats to all others who passed!!

Wow, seems like most people (if not everyone) did well! CONGRATSSSSSS!!!!!!

🙁 

Congrats to all those who passed! Got 70+ in everything but Ethics (50-70)!! Does that mean I am unethical? Could not care less 😉

Band 10. Wow.

Band 10. Wow.

So close! 🙁 Sorry to hear that @jessmat.

>70% on everything except Derivatives…I bombed that with <=50%. I am surprised I did much better in FI and Quant than I originally felt coming out of the exam.

Well, after months of EOC scores in the 70 to 85% range on every topic, I got exactly what I expected… Fail, band 8.
Memory retention issues strike again. Oh well, there’s always June.

Havnt received email yet :@ Does it signify any thing.. like why havnt i received it :'( 

Congrats everyone who passed.. 
Sorry for anyone not qualifying but I am sure next time you all will be more strong and will be successful

@jessmat‌ Gotta say that’s the toughest pill to swallow. So close, yet so far. But at least you’ll pass it in June for sure. All the best.
@maverick You must be feeling cheated by your own memory. But that’s pretty close so don’t stress.

@christine I did in fact check it out earlier. It averaged at 76%, min 66.4%, max 94%. Apparently I scored higher than 91% of the candidates in this forum.  😀

unfortunately failed..

Hey Roy.

Nah, I’ve had 17 years to get used to my memory failings now. I’ll just have to repeat and repeat until it’s ingrained by June.
It is irritating to go from 70+ to fail in a few short months though.

Mav

Failed. Band 9. :disappointed:

Congratulations to those who nailed it. I am now torn between retaking it on June or December, or something else.

I agree that I messed up with the concepts during the real test. The calculation part was really simple (I nailed Quants + Port Mgt, but the rest….)

If I go with June14, that gives me 4 months and 1 week to reinforce my conceptual understanding. Won’t lie that I feel kinda sad now. :'(

@wm247‌ It’s ok to feel sad. We’ve have all put it a lot of effort into this. I think you should go for June 2015 because Band 9 isn’t bad at all and you just need a little more effort in key areas.
