Hey Guys
I'm currently enrolled for Level II in June 2012 and I'm considering the FRM. I have a few questions:
1. Is it too late to start studying for the 1st FRM exam in November?
2. How does the volume of work for the 1st FRM exam compare to Level I CFA?
3. Does the 1st FRM Exam overlap with Level 1 CFA Material?
4. Will I find it hard to balance doing the FRM study and starting the CFA Level 2 material? Will I jeopadise my Level II result by studying for the FRM instead of starting preparations for Level 2 earlier?

I did FRM level 2 and CFA level 2 during Nov - June year cycle.
I found some overlap between FRM level 2 and CFA level 2. It helped a little in fixed income, derivatives, portfolio management, alternate investment areas of CFA level 2.

Why not clear L2 and then do both FRM L1 and L2 at one go in Nov-2012 ?作者: segalm 时间: 2011-8-10 10:06
I might as well do them now then? Unless i start studying for frm1 and 2 right after taking level 2 in early june作者: jbaldyga 时间: 2011-8-10 10:22
yeah thats what i mean, you can start immediately after L2 and then try to clear it. Atleast that is what i plan to do.
I am just afraid that in order to do too many things at one go i might end up screwing both.
Anyways depends person to person, you can do it if you feel you can do it :-)作者: therecruit 时间: 2011-8-10 10:38

I should mention that when I wrote FRM1 in Nov 2010, only 39% of us passed... meaning that the "average" candidate failed.
So if you're planning to write FRM1 in November, you should probably start studying fairly immediately.
