One more week until the CFA exam!

Correct:  One more week until this "CFA charterholder candidate" gets my life back after taking the "CFA level I examination"
Incorrect: I'm getting me my C next Saturday, so that I can be a C-FA!
CFA Institute Guidance: Standard VII: Responsibilities as CFA Institute member or Candidate: Reference to the CFA Institute, the CFA Designation, and the CFA program: "The Chartered Financial Analyst" and "CFA" marks must always be used either after a charterholder's name or as adjectives, not as nouns."
