I had a question David. Kindly help, in the morning exam I had made a mistake in circling my id number 87933 but I could not correct it as there was a copy below that sheet and erasing won’t help. I hope that didn’t impact my result. Can you please help me check this out with GARP as I am pretty disappointed with the results.
I will appreciate your help.

Vivek,

My GARP contact did say I could forward special issues. I have done that with your post. I *assume* my GARP contact will get back to your directly on your issue.

Hi David,

I did also pass the exam and to be honest I was so afraid to open the mail!

I worked hard for it with your help as well. To listen to your videos was not always such a pleasure but it helped me a lot in the Dutch traffic jams!

Bionic turtle is so useful to learn risk management and meanwhile try to pass the exam.

I like to follow the forum and see I can help in the coming year.

Thanks a lot David!!!!

Hi David,

I would like to thank you for all your help as well.  I had a short period to prepare and didn’t think I would make it without your help.  Thank you.

Hi David,

I have cleared my FRM examination. Although did not subscribe to Bionic Turtle [as would be evident i am a none too frequent poster on the BT website], i did keep self posted through the fortnightly updates you posted. I congratulate you and your team for a fabulous job in dissecting complex concepts and making it understandable through your excel sheets. Man, you and your team have got the concepts absolutely crystal clear.

I just have one recommendation though that you may want to consider. it immensely help if there is a recap section at the end of every forecast / subject matter which summarises the top key concepts for that area. Further i found the exam posed many problems / practical questions - It will help the prospective candidates if a few more questions as well as reference books from the GARP core readings which may be referred to by a candidate just in case he wants further reference materials.

I shall keep myself abreast of the latest developments on your website for further professional development.

Great job, guys ... keep up the good work

Best Regards,
Brijesh Negandhi
