Prepare for GARP's 100-question, four-hour FRM Part I exam with structured review across risk foundations, quantitative analysis, financial products, valuation, and risk models.
FRM Part I is the first exam in the Financial Risk Manager certification path. It tests the core tools and theories used in financial risk management through 100 equally weighted multiple-choice questions delivered by CBT.
Part I is a broad tools exam. Candidates need concept fluency, calculation accuracy, and four-hour endurance.
GARP lists 100 equally weighted multiple-choice questions delivered through computer-based testing.
Candidates have four hours to complete FRM Part I.
The exam covers foundations of risk management, quantitative analysis, financial markets and products, and valuation and risk models.
GARP offers FRM Exam Part I in May, August, and November, with seats scheduled after registration.
GARP frames FRM Part I around the tools used to assess financial risk: risk governance and foundations, probability and statistics, financial markets and derivatives, valuation methods, value-at-risk concepts, stress testing, and model risk. Candidates should be able to explain, calculate, compare, and apply rather than only recognize formulas.
The 100-question CBT format gives candidates an average of 2.4 minutes per question. A practical study plan should include timed sets, calculator drills, skip-and-return strategy, and review sessions that separate conceptual misses from calculation errors.
Passing Part I is required before Part II can count toward certification. GARP states that candidates have four years from passing Part I to pass Part II, then must submit two years of relevant full-time risk management work experience within the required window.
