Retabbed and no errors found, my band 10 stands so back to the drawing board. I will start earlier, do more practice papers and turn this band 10 into a pass next year.
Can’t believe I will be in this progran for a 5th year but ya gotta do what you have to do to get ahead.
No giving up here for sure
 
Bad luck mate. I like your attitude. Good luck this time (although it sounds like you won’t need it).
 
Sorry to hear that mate.. We will kill this in 2014 together..
I am a band 10 too!
 
rumor on the street is that some of the retabs are being looked at hard for possible changes broski.

That is the spirit You can do it!!! As I’m sure you know, a band 10 doesn’t mean that you can let your leg off the intensity throttle. Go at it extra HARD and cover all topics, and not just those you didn’t do well on in 2013’s exam! As you know, things change - a true random walk :)
 
I called them up to follow up on my retabulation results, I was told that there is some issue with my retab and I need to wait a liitle longer….. They refused to give anymore details.
 
You know what you have to do and you just have to find the fire somewhere and do it again.
You have made it this far to band 10 and honestly sometimes all it takes is better luck on the exam day!
Try to take the weight off and not think about how many years or times you have done and just start this L3 journey like it is your first time!
Best of LUCK ^_^

Considering they just re-add the section scores and ensure all responses were graded, I don’t know how “hard” you can really look at a retab.
5+5+4+3+1+5=23… all writing marked? Yes? Done.

Nana how come Japs peak at baseball when theyre 11 years old?
I have no idea, i don’t play baseball.
There are alot of professional baseball players but i guess once we get into highschool we have less time for sports and many kids stop playing (or play less of it) after 11?
 
Has anyone ever heard of someone passing as a result of retabulation? Just curious if this has ever actually happened.
 
oh it has happened good sir. If youve ever read the book 1984, it gives you a taste of how the CFAI erases the past from peoples memory so they have no recollection of the retabulation.
 
For those who believe CFA institute don’t make grading errors , see the above link
 
One of my colleagues at office closely works with CFA and she has told me to horror stories about marking errors
 
This year a small number of Level 3 candidates who narrowly failed the 2012 exam were informed in January that they had in fact passed.
Soneone brought it to the attention of the CFAI that one of the questions could reasonably be interpreted correctly in two ways, so they had to remark that question for all failed candidates. Something like 0.6% of candidates were passed as a result.
 
One correction , they did not remark to all candidates , they only remarked to candidates who were very close to the MPS , but this makes the score band of failed candidates incorrect , although may not be material

I thought that was a Jim Carrey/Kate Winslet movie.
 
2004? So in the past decade there has been not one instance. Seems like a massive profit center. I doubt they even look at the card.
