27, in my last year of PhD, trying to graduate soon.

I hate to admit it but I am 66 years old. passed level 1… December 2016 exam, passed level 2 june 2017 exam…on to level3…

I need to pass level 3 while my brain is still working …Lets say time is not on my side (lol). I really wonder if I am the oldest…may start a separate thread to find out?

Wow!!! And i thought at 55 I’m the oldest :slight_smile: Yeah do start a 50+ thread. It will be fun to share seniors stories. Good luck for your L3.

Male, 32, In a relationship.

I feel like I am filling out a dating profile.

  1. Had a 8 month old when wrote level 1. Had a 2.5 year old and a 3 month old when wrote level 3. Was fortunate enough to pass all on first attempt.

LOL make my day! At least the post didn’t ask about your income. :wink:

23 here - just finished up level 3. Only 28 more months of work experience to go!

As I used to say to " younger" generations we are as a good wine we got better by getting older wink

Just turned 24.

Glad to see a big age range. More important than how early/late you finish this journey is what your job/work experience is/has been. CFA does not mean you’re great PM nor investor. Some shops in NYC/Fairfield County CT have said to interviewees ‘ok you have your 3 letters, so what? Pitch me a stock/comment on the market/etc.?’

I almost assumed that would be the next question! Ha!

My goodness! Why would you _ hate _ to admit it?

That should be a source of pride.

I, for one, look forward to congratulating you next year.

Or net worth.
