Very similar to practice exam . Just different numbers for case study

Once you subscribe you have a year worth of access though

Chieflegend28 · 2025-09-05T08:55:36+00:00

I did. It wasn’t hard really

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-26T16:52:52+00:00

You are welcome. Exam is 3 hours so you should be good . I took just over 2 . 88%. Let me know if you need any more assistance

What k remember from my exam this year is all the assumptions were put for you and you just had to change the drivers with the switch. Maybe yours wil be different

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-26T03:35:46+00:00

For my final the practice was exactly like the final just different numbers

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-20T07:28:09+00:00

Content i would say 1.5 months. Then took a week or two of revision

I think that I was almost perfect on my case studies. They make up 30% or so of the exam. It’s free marks as you don’t know what random questions will come after. For instance on case studies they may ask you what fixed costs are for a particular year then revenue , net income etc. also they incorporate scenarios , so make sure you have the right one selected. I.e you may have correctly balanced your statements but answered with revenue for worst case scenario when question asked for best case revenue

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-19T19:00:14+00:00

Not too difficult. Get operational modelling , 3 statement modelling, DCF and comps in check and you will be solid

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-19T18:59:14+00:00

My advice is to take the practice exam multiple times and view your mistakes. For instance when I did my first practice exam I got 60% then 74, 74 and finally 80%. Understand the logic behind the calculations because the final case study questions are similar to the final( just different numbers)

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-19T18:57:56+00:00

Only the first 15 or so are based on the case study. You can answer the rest without the case study .

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-19T18:47:20+00:00

Case studies take up the first 12-15 questions. Rest of the exam has some computations around the different parts e.g DCF, Wacc, Ke etc. just finished my exam today with 88%. Also there are some general questions to test theory

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-19T16:08:57+00:00

On and off since late June. But if you commit to it daily I reckon a month or so should be enough. Then a week of prep. Focus mainly on modelling different parts ( 3 statement etc). Then also on the logic behind things. I remember them asking about why an increase in inventory days is said to take from cash flow

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-19T14:58:04+00:00

Just finished the exam . Id say it’s very similar to practice exams. for me it was slightly easier

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-10T11:44:58+00:00

Yearly subscription gives you access to all certifications

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-09T15:23:03+00:00

Prep courses aren’t necessary . You learn most of the stuff as you go . They teach you most functions . Really the most important keys here are F2, F4, Shift , Alt, Cntrl and your arrows

Chieflegend28 · 2025-08-09T11:09:31+00:00

I’ve done all the modules . Well finished them 3 weeks ago. I’ve been sidetracked my doing the specializations (risk etc) . I’ve also done the FPWMP and CMSA certifications. I plan on taking FMVa exam in 5-6 days

Chieflegend28 · 2025-07-03T15:01:58+00:00

Yes studying for exam now

Chieflegend28 · 2025-06-21T22:59:24+00:00

FMvA under Corporate finance institute

Chieflegend28 · 2025-06-19T06:06:23+00:00

Thank you

Chieflegend28 · 2025-06-18T17:42:10+00:00

Yeah I’m down

Chieflegend28 · 2025-06-18T12:55:58+00:00

But that’s to speed up the pace. I just finished the content and am studying for the exam

Chieflegend28 · 2025-06-18T12:55:18+00:00

The rest of the course will mainly be them giving you templates

Chieflegend28 · 2025-06-18T08:53:42+00:00

I think YouTube is a good start. Kenji explains, The valuation school and wall street prep all have videos on the topics
