GARP has posted a list of changes to the 2012 FRM Study Guide.
This is a list of new, deleted, and updated readings from the 2011 FRM Study Guide.
This would be especially helpful for people who have been preparing from the 2011 readings / material or who have not yet got the 2012 material.
I attach the comparison.
FRM Exam Preparation Handbook (This is a new feature)
The FRM Exam Preparation Handbook is designed to assist FRM candidates in their preparation for the FRM Exam by suggesting strategies for completing the reading material outlined in the FRM Study Guide and FRM AIM Statements documents, which together form the blueprint for Exam topic coverage.

I want to join investment giants like Goldman, JP Morgan, Credit Suisse etc. Is the FRM certification enough to atleast get an interview call from.
Seems like no one wants this 
... In case no one is expressing interest, I can dispose these off.
I have the following Schweser material 2011 (hard copy) for FRM L2 with me
- Market Risk
- Risk Mgmt and Invstt Mgmt
- Practice Exams
Anyone willing to take them in person in Bangalore from my place is most welcome to come and collect them.
I do not require any payment.

Try to find an answer to the question why you want to enter Risk Management? Do not be swayed by the "perceived value" or if someone tells you that studying for 400-500 hours and clearing two papers will land a 7-digit salary job.
It never does.
My suggestion is that you concentrate on getting yourself some good experience and into a Tier I B-school. In case you decide on Finance as your specialization, then later, try to boil it down to RM if it really interests you and if math does not scare you.
FRM will only add value in a Risk Management career - that too if you have experience and qualification.

However, in case your question is whether FRM will help you get into a Tier I B-school, that is open... :)
