Putting "on first attempt" on resume

I also indicate when I wrote each exam as a subtle way of referencing the 2/2 (hopefully soon to be 3/3!).
What may actually come off as cheesy is the <50/50-70/>70 score breakdown for each test that I also include…

Just put down something like:
-Passed Level 1 on June 2009
-Passed Level 2 on June 2010
-June 2011 Level 3 Candidate
People should get the idea and its less d’baggish

I think a L3 candidate is a L3 candidate. It does not matter how one gets there. IMHO

lol of course!
 
when i crushed L1 with >70% in every single topic you had better believe i attached it to my resume
call me a dbag…but guess who changed jobs recently and got 2x old base
 
ok, same consensus as in general forum but you guys answers were funnier. thanks guys.
 
it matters. someone who finished all 3 exams in 3 years is, on average, going to be better at the job/more motivated/more intelligent then someone who took longer. you can bring up legitimate excuses that some people may have for taking longer, as iteracom did, but you can’t deny that on average this is true.
