In Reply To: I still would say congratulation, because I think you know the most valuable thing - persistence. That is what I always remind myself. I remember my first finance course. My prof. gave us a piece of paper, which stated that nothing can beat persistence. He also says there are full of educated fools around. I truely believe his words. I believe you will pass all of them. I am looking forward to your good news. I found our conversation are shown in the bulletin, which make me a bit nervous.
Message: Thanks davis! Now the big headache is to fit this exam into my tough schedule. I'll keep drilling it. And you're ....right about persistence! :) By the way, what do you think about this easy one - CFM? Just one miserable part to grab this one. One question here is that you must have qualifying experience. If you're in public accounting, then it's ok. If not then, you have to check before you take it. Then if you still plan to take CFA, you can waive this part (CFM) by passing CFA exam. Kind of coooool! :) Try to "drill into" a small CPA firm, work a year-two then - jump into bigger CPA firm. American market is in a nnnnnnnnnnnaasty shape now, we all should wait. Good Luck
