If you purchased the CFE study package (study guide, manual, app, online materials) in 2021 can you request the exam in 2022 or do you have to repurchase the package to take the exam? Thanks!!

If memory serves you have a year (but it's been a while).

You don’t have to repurchase! If you buy the 2021 materials, you’ll be given the 2021 version of the test regardless of when you take it (though there is some time limit on that - I don’t remember how long). For your reference, I bought the study materials in October 2020 and got lazy and didn’t take the tests until this summer and everything went fine. Good luck!

It was super easy! Passed all 4 within 10 days. What I did was study for each section fully then went back and re-studied for each one right before taking it (since you have to pass all 4 in a 30 day window). Personally I read the entire book but it was in no way necessary. If you do all the MCQs like 5 times each you would pass.

Thank you!

I applied to Amazon before for a highly senior position and made it to final interview so I think I would have a better chance for a new grad type role.
