**People have been making a big deal about what effect would the Indian problem have on pass rates if they couldn't take the exam. Maybe this will help you in determining the impact.
 
looks like the germans are killing our curve. first the holocaust now this? jeez, i need to sell my b-mer and stop supporting this madness. ;)

pass rates for level 1 have hovered around 39-40% for the last year or 2... it most likely will be a number around there. somewhere on the CFA site they post pass rates- too lazy to check right now but you can find it if you search. i want to say last year was 40% in june and 39% in dec.

as for india, i hope they do well considering the stress they just went through.

amen, i hope they do consider the confusion about cancellation and then travel to some other country!
by the way, i can bet this year the passing rate of india would be the highest as the underprepared candidates opted not to take the examination.
 
seriously. i'll i've read is about how china is killing the curve, but it looks like its germany is doing it more so... and the UK pass rate is as high as china.
 
We need to promote CFA in Africa...I know my buddy across the lake (Bill Gates) does a lot of work in Africa...we need to include CFA promotion on his agenda. We can use higher # of candidates from there.
but seriously its amazing that the pass rate is what it is over there considering the number of probs they face
 
I'll bet a huge percentage of Africans who take the exam are from South Africa where they have well-developed capital markets and relative health and stability now. I'll bet nobody takes the exam in Kampala, for instance (but I would like to be wrong. Anyone here from Kampala?).
