PRM (Professional Risk Manager) by PRMIA

yeah even i want to know.. which one is better, riskprep or eduleap. because i do want to understand the level of questions n the type of questions asked in the exam.


@sha13 I have cleared all the exams with the help of riskprep only. I haven't tried eduleap so I cant give u a comparison but I can tell u dat riskprep was gud enuf for me.
@srujan90 happy diwali srujan.. and thank you. yeah.. i just wanted to prepare well for the exams. btw is there any preparation pointers you could give. cause the study material is quite in depth but the sample questions i have seen till now dont require the candidate to go in depth as far as the exam is concerned. any prep tips?

@sha13 Thanks!...same to u :)....the study material is in depth....and i tried to study it in depth...u shud do the same to improve ur knowledge in the field....and the questions r moderately tough....not so tough dat u wont pass....but no so easy as well....jus understand the concepts well....and u will need to know all the concepts bcoz u never know wat they mite ask....jus coz riskprep concentrated on a particular topic doesnt mean it'll come for sure...it happened to me....dats why....evrythg is imp....u shud try n understand most of it...some concepts r tough n r given in depth....so atleast try n kno wat it is bout...
@srujan90 thank you very much.. i will take the advice.. and will prepare accordingly.. sorry for replying a little late. i am planning to pay and activate risk prep today. il try and take it one paper at a time.
@sha13 All the best!! :)
@srujan90 well thank you. my email id is [email protected]. il keep in touch if you could provide me with yours

Hello srujan90, Congrats on your achievement. I am currently preparing for exam one and i find your post were extremely helpful. Congrats also vicky113. Any tips for exam 1? BTW anyone from the Caribbean doing this exam, as i reside in the caribbean.

@Hermz Thanks!! :)...well...for exam 1..its a vast portion...so read the handbook 2-3 times....then practice questions frm risk prep....in case u dont understand some concepts of derivatives or debt market....use some texts...like derivatives by John C. Hull n Debt Market by Frank J. Fabozzi....that should be enuf...
@srujan90 Thanks. Will do. I will update you on my progress. I am hoping to write the exam mid January
@Hermz Sure...All the best :)
I just gave got my prm exam 3 result.. passed 😃 😃 :)!! had taken both risk prep and eduleap mock test.. eduleap is better, questions were closer the actual exam. riskprep has more questions but mostly very simple.
@quant_riski That wil surely help the students in the future....i didnt know about eduleap....so please do post some more details bout eduleap....about how many questions r der in the question bank...the cost etc....so that it'll be helpful for others who might wana give in the future...n btw Congrats!! :)
@srujan90 The have mock tests modeled on the actual exam itself.. the prm 3 mock test i gave had 30qtns and was timed for 2hrs.. gave a good simulation of the actual exam... i got 22/30 there.. got better in the actual exam 24 u can chk it out eduleap.in
Nyone given exam 4 pls help!
@quant_riski I have already cleared all the exams :)...jus wanted u to give a detailed info so dat students in the future cud make an informed decision.....for exam 4 i didn't buy any papers and riskprep doesn't provide as well. Its quite easy, jus read the case studies 2-3 times and understand wat went wrong and wat type risks were ignored...etc....u shud be fine then :)

Hey guy, Can pl. let me know which edition of PRM handbook is valid and relevant for exams in 2013?

Thank you..!

I just had the older handbook.. and took the mock test on eduleap.. that should suffice.

@quant_riski: Thank you.

Any of you guys have the excel workbook, which contains all the data and formulae. Based on this excel workbook illustrations in the PRM handbook are worked out.

@Moneybhai No...I don't think any1 has the excel workbook....i realise that it contains the data n formulae.....but in case you want to learn a specific method or simulation technique....if you jus google it you'll get it....

hi can anyone share the total cost for writing the exam 1 prm.. including the registration fee,study material fee...
