Math is generally not bad, is it easier to take the FRM test?

Generally, it is a number four difficulty, not more than three. The main reason is that there is a lot of content in probability and statistics.

Financial Risk Manager FRM is an authoritative certificate in the field of global financial risk control, in the financial industry with "risk control" as the core, having FRM certificate has gradually become one of the standing certificates of public financial practitioners, in China, with the specialization of risk control, FRM has become a must!

At present, we are in the early stage of registration for the FRM exam in November 2018, and in the face of many candidates who want to register for the FRM exam, here is to understand with you whether the FRM is difficult to take and how long does it take to pass the FRM exam?

Is FRM hard to get? As one of the very high gold certificates, the difficulty of the exam will definitely not be so simple, otherwise we will not only have about 7,000 FRM holders. In the FRM exam in May 2018, our test takers also mentioned that many test centers also dropped out of the test.

Of course, there are a thousand reasons to abandon the exam. However, the difficulty of FRM is definitely one of the main reasons.

1. All English exams, a new knowledge system.

According to the official website of the GARP Association, as a global candidate, the FRM is currently an all-English test, and for Chinese candidates, English textbooks and exams are a big challenge, especially for those who are not good at English.

Generally speaking, we think that the English proficiency requirements of the FRM test are between CET-4 and CET-6, and the relatively difficult thing is to understand and memorize financial vocabulary.

At the same time, the FRM exam is a new knowledge system developed based on the modern financial risk management system, which is not very well understood by Chinese candidates in many aspects, which is equivalent to relearning a new knowledge system, which undoubtedly increases a lot of difficulty!

2. There are certain requirements for mathematics, and the examination is closely related to the practice of risk control.

Financial risk management also has certain requirements for mathematics, and we need to flexibly use various risk measurement tools, and the main mathematical knowledge involved in the FRM exam is the relevant knowledge of probability and statistics.

The real difficulty of the FRM exam lies in the fact that this is an exam that is closely related to the practice of risk control, most of the questions are practical problems in the industry, and there is no full-time question writer in GARP.

How long does it take to pass the FRM?

After reading the above introduction to the difficulty of the FRM exam, do you feel that it takes a long time to prepare for the FRM exam? In fact, the GARP Association also recommends that candidates have at least a 15-week revision plan. Usually our candidates may take a little longer to prepare for the exam than this.

And due to family and work reasons, the actual effective revision time may be less, so it is recommended that FRM candidates can choose to study the new smart FRM online course. Make effective use of time to learn efficiently.

Hello classmates, I'm glad to answer for you!

First, the difficulty of the FRM exam lies in the constant change in the body of knowledge. The risk management methods of VAR and stress tests, on which the difficulty of the FRM exam is based, are changing and developing rapidly, so that it is difficult for books in the domestic textbook market to cover all the test content, which greatly increases the difficulty of the FRM exam.

Second, the difficulty of the FRM exam lies in its close connection with the industry's risk control practices. The difficulty of the FRM exam is due to the fact that the content of the exam is mostly specific questions in practical work, and the difficulty of the FRM exam is also related to the purpose of the examination of the questions designed by the proposer, which makes the difficulty of the FRM exam increase a lot.

Thirdly, there is also an uncertain factor that affects the difficulty of the FRM exam. GARP does not have a full-time examiner, which makes the difficulty of the FRM exam fluctuate greatly. Therefore, in order to adapt to the difficulty of the FRM exam, it is simply impossible to cultivate good and effective test-taking skills and techniques by only doing some old real questions.

Jin Cheng wishes you a happy life!

FRM or CFA is easier to take.

Divide people. You learn more. Take the test.

It's a little hard, review well and believe in yourself.

The FRM exam requires a number 4 difficulty for the mathematics level.

1. The FRM exam mainly involves the content of probability and statistics. The specific requirements for mathematics are not high, so the requirements for candidates for mathematics are generally four difficult and not more than three. Candidates who primarily understand the use of tools will be able to meet the requirements for Mathematics for FRM enrollment.

2. Mathematics is the most difficult and the fourth is the easiest, including calculus, linear algebra and probability theory.

3. Mathematics in the FRM exam is mainly the basic knowledge of probability theory, inference and estimation in statistics, and then the time series analysis model and Monte Carlo simulation.

FRM (Financial Risk Manager) is a qualification in the field of global financial risk management, established by the Global Association of Risk Professionals (GARP) in the United States.

GARP is one of the financial associations, mainly serving more than 5,000 banks, companies, academic research institutions, management institutions, asset management institutions, insurance companies and non-financial companies. Its main function is to raise standards in the field of financial risk management worldwide through the exchange of information and the implementation of educational programs.

The FRM exam began in 1997 and is divided into level 1 and 2 (part and part).

There are many opinions about the difficulty of the FRM exam, some say it is easy, some say it is difficult. Some people say that they will pass the exam by flipping through the book before the exam, and some people say that they have read the book several times and done a lot of questions, but they still have no bottom in their hearts for the exam. The FRM training teacher of Pujiang Finance pointed out that the FRM exam is difficult as a whole, and the difficulty is increasing year by year, especially the direction of the FRM exam is difficult to grasp.

Candidates who are preparing for the FRM exam on their own need to have a good foundation and sufficient time to prepare for the exam. Since FRM candidates are mainly in-service personnel, many candidates are full of confidence at the beginning of the preparation process, but various problems in the preparation process of FRM, such as lack of preparation ideas, poor grasp of the test center, and lack of targeted practice questions, eventually lead to the waste of time and money for most candidates. What if I run into these problems?

You can go to Pujiang Finance to try out a few lessons, which will definitely benefit you a lot.

Teaching faculty: Must have a full-time faculty because studying the FRM exam is their profession;

Number of teachers: Fewer teachers will lead to a large number of teachers, and the quality of lesson preparation cannot be guaranteed by the teaching teachers;

Learning platform: Without the bearing of the learning platform, it is possible that you will only stay at the level of learning, without consolidation and breakthrough;

Data system: Whether it is handbook, notes, or the original book of the association, it is not good to meet the needs of the examination, and the needs of the training institution must be combined with the above information, and must develop review materials that are more suitable for Chinese candidates, so as to better help you improve your learning efficiency and pass the exam.

Few of the people who take the FRM in mathematics are math majors, and the vast majority of them have only taken advanced math courses in school, which is completely sufficient.

The FRM does not require more mathematics than the number three in college, and if you are a business, economics, finance or engineering major, you don't need to worry about mathematics at all. Mathematics is mainly the basic knowledge of probability theory, inference and estimation in statistics, and then time series analysis models and Monte Carlo simulations, if the foundation is good, it can be done in two weeks. Of course, you have to do more questions in the follow-up, as long as you understand the theorems and methods of mathematics, it is relatively simple.

Although the foundation of economics and accounting is helpful for understanding financial theory, the FRM exam also involves market, credit, operation and investment in addition to the quantity, and these professional financial knowledge is generally not of much use if you have only studied accounting or economics before, because FRM is different from CFA Chartered Financial Analyst and does not involve knowledge of economics and accounting. Therefore, there may be relatively few technical terms, and relatively less pressure to disperse in the language. If candidates feel that they are still unreliable and do not want to sign up first, then take some time to read some foreign financial classics, etc., on the one hand, to increase their financial skills, and on the other hand, to increase their English ability.

The FRM Level 1 exam is 100 objective questions, and the Level 2 exam is 80 objective questions, with no subjective answer part, and the requirements for English proficiency are greatly reduced. Generally speaking, as long as you pass CET-4, you don't need to worry about not being able to understand the FRM test paper. The real difficulty in understanding the test paper is not the grammar, but the key financial terms in it.

If you want to get the words right, there is actually no better way to do it, so you can only make up your mind to memorize them.
