[rant] God I hate people who tell me this exam is easy

I had this guy at work. While I was studying for level 1, he told me that someone else at work had apparently “failed” Level 1 even though he was “Brilliant”. Well, with all that negativity, I managed to clear Levels 1 and 2 and shut him up. Whereas these days, whenever I come across someone who knows I am not employed and studying for Level 3, keeps saying “I’m sure you’ll clear it” or things like “I’ve heard Level 3 is easy, you should be fine”. I’m like “you think?” :-w

Hahaha thanks for the rant. I needed that.

I told someone off before for saying ‘you’ll be fine’ one too many times. I think I was a bit irrational, perhaps, but i was seriously annoyed.

I feel CFA is just one of those professional exams. No one can really understand what you have gone through unless they have given the exam themselves. Only a CFA can understand what it takes to clear the exams, and what it means to the candidates.

hehe mine’s worse. “you’ll be fine, you’re not working anyway, tons of time to study” = double whammy

I was like: Thanks for telling me I’m jobless

There’s a lot of mind games going on at work as well – don’t let them psyche you out!

Just cranky, I’m sure he/she will forgive you
