Hi again,
For those who took CMA part 1 in October 2011 (The New 2 parts CMA) , I would like to thank everybody for sharing kind and motivative words. Sorry for my late reply, but last couple of days weren't very cool. I am now over the disappointment and ready to move on.
For those who were blunt and told me a score of 310 is pretty low, I appreciate that. I heard opposite opinions about my grade as well. Who knows how good/bad my grade is. Anyways, thanks for sharing.
For those who had the same experience ( failure on the first attempt), i know how frustrating it feels. Never give up and hopefully all of us will pass on our next attempt.
For those who passed, congratulations!!
Andrew Andrich, Richard Howell, Ashraf kamal Hamed and Anas Rasheed, congrats again for passing. all of you got great scores. Would you please get in touch with me and maybe provide me with some tips here and there? I am in a desperate need of help! I can provide you with my skype ID if that would be easier way of communication if you guys dont mind.
My experience:
I am an international candidate. My background is a bachelor's degree in finance from the states. I have three years of work experience in auditing in KPMG. CMA part 1 exam was my very first attempt in any of the certificates. I appeared in October 23, 2011 and i got a score of 310. I have all IMA, GLIEM, HOCK materials. I studied for 4 months with a break of 10 days in the middle. I focused on GLIEM and used full online tests from IMA and used some videos from HOCK. I am planning to study again and review to retake it end of February. I have approx. 8 weeks.
If you can help me, feel free to message me or email me at shahlageoffrey@....
Thanks again,
Shahla Geoffrey
