I´ve passed, but I don´t have the 4years requirement (will have in a few months, though). How you would update your CV / Linkedin profile?
I was thinking in “Passed CFA Level 3 Exam (june/2013)”. Is this correct, according to the ethics guidelines?
 
I can’t remember, and don’t have my books handy.
Isn’t it something like “Passed CFA Level 3 exam.” Is there anything else?
 
For the definative read CFAI

For those of you already regular members or with your 4 years experience you still need to wait according to the CFA Institute bylaws (the relevant part below being “acceptance by CFAI”)
3.4 Charterholder Members.
(a) Each applicant seeking to become a Charterholder Member of CFA Institute shall:
(i) be an individual who has satisfied (1) the requirements to become a Regular Member and (2) the requirements of the CFA Program as established by CFA Institute and achieved the minimum passing score; and
(ii) complete and submit any additional application procedures or requirements established by CFA Institute.
(b) Upon satisfaction of the requirements in Section 3.4(a) and acceptance by CFA Institute, an applicant shall become a Charterholder Member and be granted the right to use the Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA®) designation.

You have passed Level 3 and you still need to ask us this?
Yes. I don’t have the books in front of me and it has been over 2 months since I cracked them. I know there was a certain way to write it, but I want to be doubly sure. That’s why I am on here.
“You mean you don’t remember the formula for finding the effective annual rate on a loan with an interest rate cap? You passed Level III and you still need to ask this? What are you an idiot?”….
 
General rule is that you can state things that are factual. Just don’t be misleading in saying that it means you’ll get better investment results or whatever.
 
So “Passed CFA Level III - smartest investor ever” would not fly….
 
I just found out I passed level 3, I am a regular member. Am I all set now to use designation or do I need to wait for something?
