last year for level 1, i did it at my desk at work. now i am thinking i should go out to my car, and just check on my phone, my anger if i fail band 10 would surely get me fired作者: zbird2134 时间: 2013-8-11 17:48
I’ve got a dentist appointment at 8. Planning on leaving my phone in the car, and checking when I get out. If it is not there yet , I will try to avoid looking at it while driving as I don’t want my fail to incite a road rage incident. WIll just wait until I get into the office.作者: cfa10yrplan 时间: 2013-8-11 17:49
you could be out in your car for hours dude. what if you don’t get the result until like 11? at least TRY and be productive. it might help take your mind off of it.
last resort - when you get the email run out of the room and into the hallway or out to your car and check it there.作者: kingstongal 时间: 2013-8-11 17:51
i’m also considering not checking my e-mail all day and save it for when I get home around dinner time, but i’m pretty sure i’ll be way too anxious to hold off all day作者: cfalevel2011 时间: 2013-8-11 17:53
Last winter for L1 I didn’t check until I got home at night. It wasn’t that hard to not check it at work because I’ve seen this girl burst out crying when she got her fail email during work, which taught me a lesson to never check at work. I’ll do it when I get home, in a safe environment where I can scream or cry or whatever and not feel bad. Then I’m heading to a weeklong biz trip so if I fail I don’t have to face my coworkers for a whole week.
The most annoying part is that everyone at work knows when results come out so I’ll be asked by a lot of ppl tomorrow… just want to be left alone.作者: IAmNeil 时间: 2013-8-11 17:55

I took vacation days from work for every results day. I still think it was the best avenue…if you fail you can wallow/drink it away early in the day and not have to deal with the world. If you pass you can celebrate all day and revel in it rather than having to refocus on work. I can’t imagine going back to normal in 15 minutes either way…so best to take the day and hope you are drinking champagne instead of whiskey by 10a.作者: NakedPuts 时间: 2013-8-11 17:57
I’d suggest that crying over the exam at work is more illuminating to Sr. Management on your upward mobility than passing or failing a level. Limited ability to deal with stressful and perceived high stakes situations which is imperative depending on what capacity you are working in the industry.作者: joehogue 时间: 2013-8-11 18:01
You all are still better off than Asians coz here in India we have to be in our office work with a restless mind and get back evening checking for the result atleast for you guys its in the morning the wait is long as its midnight here and tomo morning will make me crazy like anything….. Thanks CFAI for today’s sleepless night作者: lucasg85 时间: 2013-8-11 18:02
Dumb mistake on my part: I packed the day with internal activities in the morning, a client outing in the afternoon, and a dinner to top it all.
It seemed like a good idea at the time to make sure I would not wallow in self-pity if things don’t go my way. But now that results are merely hours away, I realize it’s incredibly unrealistic. No way I’ll be able to put up a good front if I fail. Even though I half expect it, it will still be a hard blow.
Oh well - better brush up on Stoicisim 101.作者: brazilatz 时间: 2013-8-11 18:04
have to commute to a remote work site for disaster recovery testing starting at 8am; client conference call at 10:30. it’s shaping up to be a pretty rough day!作者: profil 时间: 2013-8-11 18:05
I will probably be at home, but if it takes for ever like last year I will be in front of my desk…or who know, I can be on my way to work or in the parking lot…作者: BelalM 时间: 2013-8-11 18:06
In my bed when I wake up tomorrow morning before work. At least the softness of my mattress and covers will provide comfort for my pain…作者: luda002 时间: 2013-8-11 18:07
Lucky for me the results will be out when I am done work. They come out In the evening our time.作者: Analyze_This 时间: 2013-8-11 18:08
I’ll be at home as the results will be out after 10pm Japan time. I think getting the results (good or bad) is best after work as opposed to during or before work.作者: wake2000 时间: 2013-8-11 18:11
At work and every1 is already asking abt the results. Ooh Lord what is l gonn do, if l fail.作者: Colum 时间: 2013-8-11 18:12
why dont you guys check after work? the result will distract you for the rest of the day especially if it’s a failure, you won’t have the drive to continue the day anymore…
check it when you are about to do something exciting… the pain will be less painful, and the joy will be less joyful.. it offsets each other, you will have a neutral feeling afterwards…. then you can go to sleep easily作者: BC_MBA_student 时间: 2013-8-11 18:14
I have a long, intense day at work with several meetings. I wonder how long the email will be in my inbox before I get a chance to check it.作者: Zestt 时间: 2013-8-11 18:15
At work! Have installed an automated refresh plugin for my mail and set the alarm to get the notification when the actual mail comes #nerd作者: Zestt 时间: 2013-8-11 18:17
Currently in the departure lounge. I think I’m going to find out whether checking email during take off really causes planes to crash.作者: Analti_Calte 时间: 2013-8-11 18:18
At home. I decided to watch a movie (due to different time zone) with my wife before i check the result .
