@Nirushan1990 Yes, we are allowed since 5 pm EST yesterday. Current discussions at: Part 1 Part 2

Please refrain from posting details about the exam. We posted about this in another announcement. The exam is given around the world so there may be some who have not taken it yet. We will be posting feedback threads Monday morning for discussion. Thank you Nicole

We would like to ask that you do not post information about the exams this weekend (at least until Sunday at midnight EST). I will be posting Exam Feedback threads in the forum on Monday morning around 8:00 a.m. EST, and you will be able to post and discuss information about the exam at that time. It is important to remember that the FRM exams are being administered around the world at all...

Hello @onion Please note that I moved your post to this thread, which already discusses our publishing process. We post this thread at the beginning of the year to ensure that our members know that not all materials will be published in the study planner in time for the exam. Please make sure to read the original post in this thread for a more detailed explanation, but in short, it takes a...

Hello @Rohit No it is not possible to download the entire study planner at once. Please keep in mind that we publish materials throughout the exam period and not all at once. We have found that most of our members go through the study planner and download the readings that they are currently studying and check them off once they have completed them. If you were able to download the entire...

Hi @Linghan Yes, at approx 03:40 UTC (11:40 EST) the site crashed due to unusually heavy traffic. We were down for 9 to 10 minutes; we have crashed before, but usually LiquidWeb gets us back within 3 minutes, so this was above-average downtime. We have our own high-end dedicated server and they are investigating. As usual, we'll follow their recommendations if needed (eg, increase capacity) to...

thanks a lot Nicole

Passed Part-1 in 05/2016 with Q4,Q2,Q2,Q1. They passed me with a Q4 !!

Thanks for the support ! I don't feel I did well (FRM part I) as I lacked the time to prepare properly but I definitely couldn't have done as good without the videos, BT exercises, formula sheet and this forum. Thanks !
