Just wondering if everybody got this email?
And how does this work? If I apply even if I fail do I still pay the anual dues?作者: segalm 时间: 2013-8-21 15:39
I was going to post a new topic about the email which I just received .. I didnt receive such an email last year and I dont have high hopes of passing this year too.. So yeah i got this email and it has my ID on it.. any other guys received it?作者: IAmNeil 时间: 2013-8-21 15:41
Yup I realized that my ID number’s on it as well…
I doubt this means anything.. but I’l be curious to know if anybody else recieved this.作者: bbtomato 时间: 2013-8-21 15:44
I got it and I thought they do this every year to rope people into paying dues and money even though they may not pass the test. If CFAI wants my money, pass me first.作者: mp3bu 时间: 2013-8-21 15:47
you guys don’t make me feel special at all. I got two years of work experience to go so whatevs CFAI, whatevs.作者: BC_MBA_student 时间: 2013-8-21 15:50
Anyone who failed last year and remembers to have received such an email last year ?
I just received the email with my ID too.作者: laurab 时间: 2013-8-21 15:52
I suppose everyone sat for level 3 exam got the email, my heart stop beating for 5 seconds….作者: SeanWest 时间: 2013-8-21 15:55
this is a slap in the face if I failed.作者: mar350 时间: 2013-8-21 15:58
I don’t think I received this email last year when I failed…作者: KungFuPanda 时间: 2013-8-21 16:01
did anyone who passed last year get this email? I doubt it, must be a new thing. If there was a canary this big in the coal mine people would know about it.作者: rohitdoshi 时间: 2013-8-21 16:03
First time sitting for Level 3. I got the e-mail with my number on it.
Anybody at all remember seeing it last year? (pass or fail)作者: Unforseen 时间: 2013-8-21 16:06
I guess the good news is that they implicitly gave us confirmation that they have our exams … “Now that you’ve sat for the CFA Level III exam and are awaiting your exam result”…. I wish it means we all passed!
I wonder if people that have PCP investigations got the email?作者: mdfb79 时间: 2013-8-21 16:09
I got the e-mail, too. Didn’t receive it last year when I sat for Level III, and I also didn’t pass.
I don’t believe that a MPS has yet been established for this year’s Level III exam. Reading another post, it appears as if that is being done in the next week or so according to CFAI calendar of post-exam steps.作者: yospaghetti 时间: 2013-8-21 16:12
I think we should wait for others to post their update on this email. I failed last year however I dont remember anyone mentioning this email on here as I was an active member too. Therefore, i believe we should wait for someone who is sure that he/she sucked big time this year and way too sure of a fail.
I also dont see the logic behind CFAI asking us to register for a regular membership knowing that there’s a possibility that we might fail ..作者: tikfed 时间: 2013-8-21 16:17
^^ exactly but I dont think CFAI is that desperate for money at this stage where people are waiting for their results. I dont think its a smart way to make $$ too, it is tempting I must admit but everyone knows that there’s a 50% chance of passing this exam so I believe that this email goes for those who are so damn sure that they are going to pass to encourage them to register early.作者: Iginla2010 时间: 2013-8-21 16:20
Wow thats gr8! I always had this question that how much time would it take to have the CFA charter given you completed the requisite work ex. requirements and passed all 3 levels. As I have just lately fulfilled my work-ex criteria now I know I dont have to wait for more that 6-8 weeks.作者: Analti_Calte 时间: 2013-8-21 16:23
I was about to do this (did not get the email but think I passed).
Then I saw it asked for two references (preferably a supervisor). The last thing I want to do is have my supervisor fill this out only to tell them in 4 weeks that I failed. AWKWARD.
I’ll bite the bullet and register along with the other thousands who pass.作者: therecruit 时间: 2013-8-21 16:25
I received this email as well. I spoke to a guy in my office who grades them and they haven’t even set the MPS yet from what I understand so it likely doesn’t mean anything other than a way to get people to pay dues before the results are emailed.作者: giants2010 时间: 2013-8-21 16:28
^^ what if they fail?作者: jbaldyga 时间: 2013-8-21 16:31
They may not have set MPS yet but if you have 75% of total points, MPS is moot.
That said, I read about this on a blog somewhere so as much as I would love to think it means something, I was expecting this. CFAI is just trying to balance the amount of work they have to do in August by getting a few weeks head start.
I agree though that it is a total slap in the face to send this out, have people pay up and get references, and then fail them. Cruel.作者: Kapie 时间: 2013-8-21 16:34
i REALLY doubt that I’d score +75% lol ..作者: Chuckrox8 时间: 2013-8-21 16:39
Until someone says they did not get the email, it means it went out to everyone作者: meghanjackson 时间: 2013-8-21 16:42
1) Did anyone who failed last year also get the email last year?
2) Has anyone who sat for the exam this year and is not under some sort of investigation not received the email?作者: John10 时间: 2013-8-21 16:45
1) I failed last year and I did NOT get this email HOWEVER no one on this forum mentioned receiving any email like the one we got.作者: bodhisattva 时间: 2013-8-21 16:47
guy guys guys (and ladies) Calm down. If there was a magical July email that foreshadowed passing we’d already know about it. It must me a new thing and it must go out to everyone.
Commence worrying about what your results will look like作者: mar350 时间: 2013-8-21 16:50
Well Said Fraser !
Enjoy the summer guys… Cheers!作者: strikethree 时间: 2013-8-21 16:53
Hi Guys!. I was excited to see this email andreally thought it was an expectation to pass.. I did not get such email last year when I failed. actually, I think its a good idea to register early especially if you have gained the pre-requisite experience already.作者: lucasg85 时间: 2013-8-21 16:56
sure a not……
maybe its just a new thing for CFAI to send out emails to L3 candidates to join as members
dun read too much into it……higher hopes = greater fall作者: BC_MBA_student 时间: 2013-8-21 16:58
