Mathematics in the FRM exam is not very difficult, and many candidates will feel that there are many formulas to memorize, which are very complex and difficult to use when they hear mathematics, but in fact, when preparing for the exam, remember the formulas and their usage, exercise the ability to calculate quickly and accurately, and there is no problem in coping with mathematics.
Is the math content of the FRM exam difficult?
Many candidates will feel that there are a lot of formulas to memorize, very complicated, and difficult to use when they hear mathematics, but in fact, FRM exam mathematics is not very difficult, and some formulas involved in the FRM exam need to be able to remember and know how to use them.
There is a saying that the difficulty of mathematics in the FRM exam is to reach the number four difficulty, not more than the number three, in fact, this is difficult to measure specifically, but we know what knowledge is needed in FRM mathematics.
What math knowledge is involved in the FRM exam.
The FRM exam mainly covers the content of probability and statistics, as well as time series analysis models and Monte Carlo simulations, Bayesian formulas, full probability formulas, hypothesis testing, normal distribution, f distribution, t-distribution, open square distribution, etc. But in fact, the study of certificates is all simplistic and idealized modeling, so it is not difficult to examine formulas and mathematical knowledge.
When preparing for the FRM exam, you need to understand, memorize, deduce, master the variables, and know the impact of changes in each variable, etc., so that you can basically answer the questions freely in the FRM exam.
FRM exam preparation advice.
Whether it's the FRM exam or other certificate exams, it is recommended to do these things to prepare for: brush up on the questions, summarize, and review.
One of the important links - brushing questions.
There are a lot of math calculation questions in the FRM exam, and many people already know it since childhood, and the best way to deal with math is to do more questions, and FRM is no exception. In particular, FRM Level 2 is computationally intensive because it involves the practical application of financial risk management tools. It can be said that the number of questions to do determines the effect of revision.
The second important link - summary.
In addition to doing the questions, candidates must pay attention to the summary, because there are a lot of knowledge points during the exam review, and it is also very miscellaneous.
Many candidates will be confused, anxious, confused and other states in the later stage of preparation, in fact, they usually do not summarize when reviewing, and they feel that they are not reviewing enough in the later stage, and they don't know how to review.
The third important link - review.
Reviewing the textbooks, especially in the final sprint review stage, some candidates simply gave up the books completely, threw themselves on the questions every day, and did a lot of questions. But in the end, the results were not ideal.
Because this is ineffective, the content of the book is the content of the book and the topic is the topic, and the two are not combined. The purpose of doing questions is to consolidate Gong Hui's knowledge points, not to pursue the quantity of questions, if you don't pay attention to the quality of the questions, no matter how many questions you do, it will not help.

In the FRM Financial Risk Manager exam, we need to be able to use a variety of risk measurement tools. This requires a certain foundation in mathematics for candidates. Even if var is calculated and checked, it is necessary to use the vector product of delta gamma sensitivity and historical shock, and the Greek value is the first and second partial derivatives, and the basic probability and statistics common sense should still be there.
Some FRM passers say that the FRM requirements for mathematics will not be higher 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.
To put it bluntly, FRM mathematics is applied mathematics, and more directly it is statistics, and many candidates also think that the mathematics requirements of FRM are not high, and they feel that it is just a set of formulas. For example: Bayesian formulas, full probability formulas, hypothesis testing, normal distributions, f-distributions, t-distributions, open-squared distributions, etc.
Can you pass the FRM if you are not good at math?
This question is a question that candidates often ask, and we have said above that the FRM exam math is actually not very demanding, if the examinee's math is not good, we can:
1. Try to register for a class, having a teacher's tutoring will help you a lot, and Gordon FRM online class will have a precursor course to provide a comprehensive tutorial for candidates' financial English, mathematics and financial foundations, so that candidates can master the basic knowledge before the exam!
2. Candidates with good self-learning ability and sufficient time can familiarize themselves with the mathematical knowledge involved in the FRM exam and understand the formulas in the FRM exam after registration, and then start to review and solve problems in time!
Although the calculation of the FRM Level 1 exam is very large, it does not mean that these questions are difficult, so even if the mathematics is not good, it is not difficult to pass the FRM Level 2 exam after effective review!

Hello classmates, I'm glad to answer for you!
The exam mainly covers the content of probability and statistics. However, the specific requirements for mathematics for FRM registration qualifications are not high, so the requirements for mathematics for candidates for FRM registration qualifications are generally four difficult and not more than three. Therefore, candidates who mainly understand the use of tools can meet the requirements of FRM registration for mathematics.
Gordon wishes you a happy life!

Advanced mathematics is almost not involved in FRM, the quantitative part is mainly probability theory, statistics and a little measurement of things, not very difficult, this part of the handbook and notes will definitely be able to pass, in fact, it doesn't matter if you haven't studied in college, it's OK under the assault.

Hello classmates, I'm glad to answer for you!
Mathematics is mainly the basic knowledge of probability theory, inference and estimation in statistics, and then the time series analysis model and Monte Carlo simulation, if the foundation is good, it can be done in two weeks. Of course, we have to do more questions in the future, as long as we understand the theorems and methods of mathematics, it is relatively simple.
Although the foundation of economics and accounting is helpful for understanding financial theory knowledge, 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, does not involve economics and accounting knowledge, if you want to pass the exam within 4 months, it is recommended to sign up for a tutorial class, For example, Jincheng's intensive class is specially aimed at candidates like you who have a certain foundation but need to improve in a short period of time, and I believe that you will be able to pass this year's FRM exam through the guidance of Jincheng's famous teachers.
Gordon wishes you a happy life!
The requirements of RM for mathematics are higher than those of CFA, and the difficulty of the FRM exam does not exceed the number three, mainly because the content of probability and statistics is too much. It is especially good if the candidate has a multi-industry background (business background), and the most important thing is that the candidate must have the determination to study and the perseverance to keep learning.

Learning mathematics is to be able to apply it in real life, mathematics is used by people to solve practical problems, in fact, mathematical problems arise in life. For example, when you go to the street to buy things, you naturally need to use addition and subtraction, and you always have to draw drawings to build a house. There are countless problems like this, and these knowledge are generated from life, and finally people are summarized into mathematical knowledge, which solves more practical problems. >>>More
