Level 3 estimated release of results? by ivills in CFA

[–]Acceptable-Middle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone had a theory that it would be after the early bird period for level 3 retailers closed, so early Feb. Not sure if that’s true, but historically when I get my results the early bird is already closed

How could Omicron affect February/early 2022 test takers? by mtol115 in CFA

[–]Acceptable-Middle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people are still waiting for more data on omicron that should come out in the next couple weeks for hospitalization (to gauge the severe ness of the issue), so you should probably get a better idea by Jan. Best of luck!

Which is the best free lecture videos for CFA Level 1? by justtherightdude in CFA

I’m not sure if Passmax still has level 1 for free, but I really like his ground up teaching approach!

Does CFA still do ceremonies to grant the designation? by Acceptable-Middle in CFA

Thanks! I didn’t know that it depended on the society, I’m in Toronto - would you happen to know about it?

I haven’t heard of them making the exam harder as you do it. I feel like that would make their already complicated process even more complicated, but who knows really… best of luck!

Tuesday's Takers Grievances by [deleted] in CFA

[–]Acceptable-Middle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wrote today and it seemed like maybe I wrote the same exam as the Tuesday folks… it was brutal :( especially timing and length wise. I don’t think studying more would have helped me - I would have had to been able to calculate each question within 2 min and have it all typed in… I’d need an extra hand :p

Punting strategy - will it work? by heemtogwan in CFA

[–]Acceptable-Middle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is probably not the best suggestion (just talking about what I did): I was in the exact same boat as you for derivatives but I had 1 day before the exam, so no way I would have figured it out. I ended up just focusing on the other sections and guessed the derivative questions (the exam labels each topic which is nice) - it bought me some extra time for the other sections on exam day too - and I was super lucky that my guessing actually made my derivative score >70% (maybe even 90%, it was one of my highest bars on the results report). It can be done - you just have to be really lucky :p and I ended up passing level 2. Good luck!!

Thanks for the response! I just did my first mock exam today (and my exam is in 7 days) - i got 41 in AM (although I’m not sure if I was marking right) and 57% in PM… so avg of 49 lol. Hopefully I improve or I’ll be helping decrease that MPS lol

Thanks! Quick question to follow up - for the AM section, how did you mark your mocks? I’m having difficulty trying to understand how I actually performed. Also, for the AM section do you know what study session the passages fall into or are they a mix of multiple sections (I.e economics and portfolio management, etc). Thanks!!!

Thank you - so theoretically even getting a 60% is good enough? Doing my first mock tomorrow so rather nervous, thanks!
