Results June 2012: Calculate & post your 40/60/80 results here!

When reporting your results, would you please include your profession? I figure it would help to understand whether those who work as Financial Analysts (equity or fixed income analysts) are ahead of the pack in terms of pass rates. Actually I think it would help to provide:
1. which attempt this was
2. how many hones hours you spent studying
3. your profession, i.e. which topic areas you use the most on a daily basis.
Thanks
