OK, we already knew this so it is a bit of a non-event, but receiving the actual email somehow made it more real for me.
Thoughts? Renewed fears and/or hopes? Plans to celebrate or to drown your sorrows?作者: Kapie 时间: 2013-8-8 12:41
Saw the email and my heart jumped. Opened it and scanned for the word “congratulations” but didn’t see it so I smashed my computer. I’m writing this from a public one - what was the email about? It wasn’t results?

Do some sports, try to keep adrenaline low, or it will eat you作者: dyga 时间: 2013-8-8 12:43
Oddly enough I haven’t been quite as obsessed so far as I was waiting for Level 1 results.
After L1 I felt like every day / week was costing me since the wait would only leave me with 4 months to study for L2 or for L1 again (December session). This time around, the best part is knowing that, come what may, I won’t have to crack a book open for months. That definitely takes the edge off, although I’m sure my blood pressure will start creeping up a few days before July 23…
For now, I’m following Drago’s advice and doing some sports - plus catching up on all the (fiction) books I had to put on hold for months, dining out almost every night, seeing friends, staying late at work, etc. Amazing how much time and energy we suddenly got back.作者: malbec 时间: 2013-8-8 12:43
makes sense.. its usually 7 weeks after the exam and always on a Tuesday for some reason.作者: king_kong 时间: 2013-8-8 12:44
I didn’t get any emails from CFAI since the exam day.作者: random_walker47 时间: 2013-8-8 12:44
I haven’t gotten an email from CFAI either.作者: MiniMe7 时间: 2013-8-8 12:44
If I were you guys I would log into my CFAI account to double-check the email on record is still the right one (and the one you are checking). If it is, I would wait a couple of days and reach out to the CFA Institute if I still had not heard by the end of the week. The email some of us received is not critical or time sensitive, so there is no real cause for concern - and you have a month to get things sorted out before results are actually communicated.
PS: you may also want to check your spam filter to make sure it wasn’t mistakenly held up by your firewall.作者: dmrktrading 时间: 2013-8-8 12:45
you are right, Gottasay,
it’s spamed.
Weird, I put CFAI sender in safe list, I didn’t have issue this Jan receiving level 1 emails though.作者: bolligerallstar 时间: 2013-8-8 12:45
I was stressed after level I and eager to know my results, but for this one? meh, I’m just happy to have a break from it and do other things.作者: pimpineasy 时间: 2013-8-8 12:46
Not in my spam. ugh作者: smuggycfa 时间: 2013-8-8 12:46
Same thing happened to me…it got spammed and I thought I had put it on a safe list. Never had that issue before with CFA emails.作者: ap0258 时间: 2013-8-8 12:47
i never have the courage to open the email.
Longest i went was 3 days after Level I. I hope it is quicker this time around, but i probably will revert to my old tactics of getting a friend open it and convey the news. That way, I am not alone and get a hug if it’s bad news.作者: AndyNZ 时间: 2013-8-8 12:48
The long wait has a silver lining: except for the people closest to me, most folks will have completely forgotten by the time results are released.
Right now the guy at my favorite coffee spot, the girl at the gym - everyone keeps (nicely) asking, and I keep telling them I won’t find out for a very long time. Come July 23rd, I’ll have the option to lay low or brag obnoxiously…作者: busterbluth 时间: 2013-8-8 12:48
After Jun 1, I almost forgot these stuff. But since I receive this email, I started to worry again. Now each time I think of it, my heart beats heavily.作者: profil 时间: 2013-8-8 12:48
You have the right to work only, but not for the results of work. Do not let your motivation for action be influenced by reward, and do not become attached to inaction.

I would have preferred if we were not informed ahead of the scheduled release date. They should just send out the email on a random afternoon, would have been a lot better, that way i don’t have to die twice!作者: chandsingh 时间: 2013-8-8 12:49
bloodline then u will die perpetitlly作者: hw0799 时间: 2013-8-8 12:50
Someone just added a meeting to my calendar on July 23rd at 10am. I already know that they will only get 40% of my attention, at best…. At that time I’ll either be crestfallen, euphoric or on the edge of my seat.作者: busterbluth 时间: 2013-8-8 12:50
In my more rational moments I try very hard to remind myself that no matter the outcome I won’t be a smarter or dumber person on 7/24 than I was on 7/22.
But I know I will be hard pressed to remain zen on 7/23….
