标题: Failed as Band 10. Should I retablate, retake or give up? [打印本页] 作者: kseniaru 时间: 2011-7-11 18:35 标题: Failed as Band 10. Should I retablate, retake or give up?
I just failed my 2nd attempt. Feeling that I would get a pass after I finished the exam, this was very much to my surprise.
I surely did feel that I knew all the materials and well prepared for it. In fact, in each AM and PM exam, I had 1-1.5 hr left to double check all my answers.
Now, even though failing as a band 10 wasn't easy to take, I have to face the reality and make a decision.
Should I retabulate the result?
Should I register for Dec 2010 exam which will be my 3rd attempt? or
should I just give up?
Knowing that Lvl 2 is at least twice as hard as lvl 1. Maybe getting a CFA isn't right for me.

You were in Band 10!1.. don't get discouraged. I am sure the material will still be fresh for you and next time you will be well prepared if you follow above points.
I hope to see you in L2 forums in January 作者: cchang 时间: 2011-7-11 18:35
The question is, do you really want to be an analyst? Is that honestly something you want to spend your life doing? If the answer is yes, the answer to your question should be easy. If not, these exams really *are* a lot of time, and a lot of other things can get done in the time it takes to properly prepare.作者: Benjiko 时间: 2011-7-11 18:35

@ failureman
qqqbee suggests you to go for "retabulaction"作者: scr879 时间: 2011-7-11 18:35
Well certainly losing hope is something very bad, i waited for 1 year before mentally preparing myself for Dec-10 exam and my preparedness is 2 fail even 7-8 times. Dude if u have the willpower to clear, u ill definitely suceed.
