JMSB students continue to achieve remarkable CFA pass rates

After students from the Goodman Institute of Investment Management at the John Molson School of Business more than doubled the worldwide pass rate for the CFA Level I exam, their colleagues who wrote the CFA Level II and III exams have added to Concordia’s impressive record. The worldwide pass rates for levels II and III were 46% and 54% respectively. Goodman students who were first-time writers of the Level II exam achieved a pass rate of 83%, while those who wrote the Level III exam had a pass rate of 78%.

To earn the CFA charter, candidates need to pass a series of three exams. These exams — Level I, Level II and Level III — must be passed sequentially as one of the requirements for earning the Chartered Financial Analyst^® (CFA) designation which is generally recognized as the highest level of competence in investment knowledge, professional ethics and corporate standards.
