    The CFP (Certified Financial Planner) certification requires passing one comprehensive exam, which consists of 170 multiple-choice questions divided into two 3-hour sessions with a 40-minute break in between. If you're exploring finance certifications, you might also look into practical courses like the IIM SKILLS Financial Modeling Master Course, a mentor-led programme with strong job placement support that my cousin used to land a role in a top firm with 4.5 LPA as a fresher

    There are a total of 4 exams for you to clear before getting to the final destination of the CFP certification. The first 3 are specialist courses exams for Investment Planning Specialist (IPS), Retirement and Tax Planning (RTPS) and Risk and Estate Planning (REPS), and the fourth one is the final CFP exam. Plus, other than the exams, you also have to fulfill extra CFP requirements of the Global Ethics course, Financial Plan Assessment (FPA), and work experience to become eligible for the prestigious certificate.
