How would I put this on my resume?

I'm finishing up my CFP classes now and looking to take the test after that. Even if I pass the test, I won't be able to use the CFP credentials until 2015 because I don't have 3 full years of experience just yet. So, once I pass the test, how would I put that on my resume? I'm looking for jobs and also looking at MBA schools and I think the fact that I passed the classes and CFP test would be something positive, considering my lack of background in finance. So, how can I put this on my resume and get some credit for it without using the CFP marks because of the experience issue? Thanks!

Those who can, do. Those who can't, post threads about how to do it on WSO.
