      Would anyone object to me wearing one on Exam day? 😀

      LOLOLOL not at all! How would a design look like though?

      I like it. The idea of a bunch of candidates swarming the exams in the same outfit is really funny. Kinda like in The Matrix with their sun glasses.

      @MattJuniper excellent.
      How expensive is expensive? And I have to factor in shipping….

        I had a quick search today. Best I could find (within reasonable quality and delivering to everyone’s locations) was about USD30, including delivery. Thoughts?

          I’ll have a play around t-shirt designing this week. Feel free to suggest designs, and I’ll probably put a poll up later 🙂

          I’d like one that says “Please do not ask me about questions in the exam, or I will punch you in the face.”

          You should have the picture of a badge hunter one you posted some time ago. That was hillarious.

            @diya hail?

            It’s getting quite warm here in London. Dare I hope…?

            Right, here is my first attempt. What do people think?!?

            The site I used for this came out quite expensive, so I’ll do some searching as I know it can be done quite cheaply!

            Why do I get the feeling that some proctor somewhere is going to consider this to be a violation of Standard 7A?

            This did actually cross my mind, however having thought about it I don’t think it’s a problem. The design doesn’t make any reference to ‘CFA’ or ‘CFAI’, and there is no dress code for the exam (as far as I am aware). As Schweser states, 7A is not designed to prevent anyone expressing “an opinion or belief concerning the CFAI or CFA Program”, and really all this is stating is that I’m a member of a study programme/community.

            On the flip side you could argue why risk it? Maybe I’ll just wear a jumper in the actual exam part 😀

              Wow, that’s really expensive. With shipping, it would come to almost 2900 Indian Rupees 😐

                Check out some of the stuff I’ve been experimenting on here: http://www.printfection.com/300hourscommunity. You can order any item directly from them, and the prices are the lowest I’ve been able to find that delivers to most countries we’re interested in.

                @christine I had a look a few days ago and you can design custom t-shirts on-line and have them printed and sent for around £15. Seems pretty easy really. 😀

                I’d be interested.

                @MattJuniper that is EXPENSIVE. In Canadian dollars that is $53.

                Thanks for the credit. In tiny font my signature should appear. :))

                        Hey @Zee. Love the layout. Would it be costlier to print these on collared polo type of t-shirts?

                          I was gonna get some pics of me at the venue that you might be able to use, I think it will take my mind of things on exam day!

                              @mattJuniper you are definitely onto something! The draft looks great. Regardless of whether or not I would wear to exam day, I would sport that shirt in my studies and elsewhere.

                                              T-shirt is coming out at £27.99 (ZAR 385)

                                              UK shipping is free, but international shipping is £5.95 (ZAR 82)

                                                I think VistaPrint does it for much cheaper. I’m not sure about the quality though.

                                                Awesome design @mattjuniper!

                                                Did a quick check on vistaprint. It’s about £13-£17 delivered to various countries:
                                                UK: £14
                                                US: £13
                                                CA: £15
                                                ZA: £17

                                                Will continue to search, then we’ll have a t-shirt design comparison!

                                                @Sophie only problem with in being on the back is that during the summer the buildings crank up their AC to “freezer level” and living in Canada I wouldn’t be surprised if I’m wearing a sweater and still feeling chilly…

                                                And I dunno but my body temperature drops when I concentrate, is that normal? I tried googling it but didn’t find anything interesting.
