Violation of Standard VII-B... passing all 3 exams does not make you cooler than other candidates who have not passed the exams consecutively.

incorrect. On the CFA site somewhere, it states Charterholders, on average take 4 exams to pass. (this only takes into account people who have achieved CFA, not those who have not completed the ardious journey)

I totally agree looking good is better than having an extra 3 letters on your business card. Girls dig that more... Probably think you're part of the Cats Fancier Association, becuase I'm a CFA, but my sister is one also in the other association- she has a exotic shorthair and loves cats.
