So basically you can get the entry level certification with just your bachelors but to move up you would need to continue taking upper level exams to gain a higher level of income is what your saying? 5-10 years to complete all exams?

That's the gist of it from what I remember. A bachelors, a good GPA (this might vary by major) completion of an exam or two seemed to be enough to get you an interview. However, this was around 04-05 so things might be different now.

I also remember being able to take the first two exams in any order. I believe exam one was "financial risk management" or something like that. Exam two was mostly math I believe, so a lot of people without insurance/finance backgrounds seemed to opt for exam two first.
