Default MFE/C question

I passed P a while back and was planning on taking FM in Feb; however, today I realized I missed the registration deadline. My question is would I have any problem taking C in Feb and MFE in May? It seems like some FM material will be used in MFE but does order really matter? (I know it doesn't for FM and P...)

Thanks in advance.

You may want to post this in the MFE and/or C forum, but that sucks that you missed the deadline.

Doing C by February would be absolutely painful. If you don't have a job, it may be possible, but even then it would be tough.

C only requires P knowledge, and MFE does require some FM knowledge (from the Derivative Markets portion). MLC takes heavily from FM and from P.

I'm not really sure what path to take, hopefully others will chime in. Good luck in whatever you choose to do!

A bit of studying will fix that, though.
