GARP® Introduces A New Expanded FRM® Program
Starting in the May 2010 exam window, the FRM® Exam will transition into a two-part format. Both Part 1 and Part 2 will be available semi-annually, in May and November. Both exams will be offered on the same day and at the same exam site. Candidates who choose to sit for both exams on the same day must pass Part 1 before their Part 2 exam is graded. Candidates who fail Part 1 must re-register for Part 1 and Part 2 because their Part 2 exam will not have been graded. To prepare candidates to pass the FRM Exam – The First Time, Kaplan Schweser's FRM Exam Study Solutions will be updated prior to each exam season.
