Cleared Exam IV

I'm now a PRMIA certified Professional Risk Manager

128

I just took my first test, exam 3. How do they notify me if I pass or fail? By email? Or on my account online somewhere? The print out I got after the test says my score will be reported to me via the PRMIA mail system in the next 15 days. What is the PRMIA mail system???

129

First u will have to register as a student from a low income country by paying 50$....then u will be eligible for the for the low income country fees which 146.25$.....but this is not a full membership....as in der will be some features like getting invites to seminars and stuff missin.....but i don think that is really required....so register for 50$ and that will be valid for a one yr....so if u clear all the four exams within the yr....well and gud....if not u will hv to register again for 50$......to avail the low income country fees....hope u understood... 😃

Yup got it. So its better to register with 50$ fees since India is also considered low income country and get the discounted exams fees. Thanks dude..I guess being working or non-working doesnt really give any exemption.

So have you cleared these exams/ or going to attempt? If so did u use any external exams material? Also why are many opting for the Exam 2? ANy particular reason?

Any tips for newbies would be great.. 😃
132

lol....dude....i'm a newbie too....plannin to attempt exam 2 in jan....the thg is exam 2 is maths....simple stuff....jus calculus algebra n probability....n a lil statistics....including regression n stuff......exam 1 has a huge syllabus....trust me....its really big n its full of finance....n u cant give exam 3 n exam 4 widout knowin the basics of exam 1 n 2....atleast dats my opinion....n i hv downloaded dis 2004 handbook....its available on the net.....the actual material is too costly....so i'm refering to dis 2004 material n wateva new stuff is der....i'm tryin to get it frm different textbooks....supposedly some syllabus has been changed....so i downloaded the syllabus frm the PRMIA site n referring to it to check wat has been changed....if u hv some newer material...plzz do let me kno....maybe we cud help each other coz all the others seem to hv finished their PRM n not replyin anymore here.....

133

here's my mail id.... ......u can contact me here directly....my name's srujan....wat bout u??

134

Sure surjan...I';m actually considering buying those notes...but due to hectic work schedule...haven't really got time to research to my satisfaction...but shall share them with u ...

I actually wanted to know though...the digital format mentioned on the site...what is it.? Will it be in a pdf format for downloading or..will it be similar to CFA where u need an external software to view it?

Also after the (low income country discount) what would be cost of the material?

135

Im actually planning to appear for CFA level 1 in the coming june.....i think i'l be ordering the printed material for it.....n i think the prm material which they r givin wont be in a pdf format.......its more of a online thg....n there r different materials to choose frm.....prmia has tied up wid organisation....those guys give some material in the form lecture videos n excel sheets etc. n the actual material given by prm is around 290$ but wid discount it comes to 217.5$.....but...this is a lil confusing to me as well......coz der r different materials...not sure if they r same.....or if we need both....or thgs like dat....jus chec out the site...maybe u'll understand it better....

136

Hey try4jay, I found out that if u buy the material u don get it in a pdf format. u will hv to login on their site evry time n read it but u can neither print it or save it offline.

try out Riskprep - PRM Exam Preparation, PRM Test Qustions, PRMIA Sample Exams for practice qs, it will cost u 20 USD. for exam 2 handbook is fine. but when u do practice qs if u see some concepts u dont know or u hvnt seen in handbook, just find it out on net and also follow the prm syllabus closely

Hi Puys,

I have a couple of doubts about PRM membership, it would be great if anybody here can enlighten me about them:

1 The PRM Membership fee for low income country is one time payment or do we need to pay the 50$ for both the years (2 years during which we will have to complete the certification) ?
2 These 2 years needed for certification begins from the day when you obtain sustaining member certification or from the day when you register for your 1st Prm exam?

Thanks in advance!:)

Cheers

142

the two years start from the dat u register by paying 50$.....n yes the membership is only for a year....so if u take longer than a yr to complete the 4 exams u will hv to pay the 50$ again the next yr.....but i advice u to complete it in one year if possible......

143

The two years are counted from the date you appear for the first exam
