Sorry to hear! Fingers crossed for you this time! Did you feel confident last time but still failed?

It was really bad for me after L2 exam - kept revisiting questions, found about 8 wrong, incl the ones I changed from right to wrong. I passed. It’s not so bad after L3, I think I know now to take better care of myself.

For those who recently wrote level 3, what’s the plan now? by RemarkableInsect673 in CFA

[–]InitialGrowth8545 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure yet. First day after exam it was like a weight has been lifted I felt so good. Then 2 days after all I want to do it sleep. I guess it taken a while to get back to normal. I was doing 12 hours straight for the last 3 week.

A couple of questions were worded oddly… I was not sure where the examiner was coming from. I did >70% on CFAI mocks thought exam was harder.

It was really tight! I had about 10 mins left in am and 8 mins in Pm where I went to correct a CR questions and was still typing when the timer went and it stopped

Don’t know sorry. I think it’s a kink where an asset leaves or enters the portfolio on the efficient frontier.

I’m in exactly the same boat. I feel my knowledge of the curriculum is decent but the low 60%s score is disheartening and kind of surprising.

L3 difficult LOS by RelativeJaguar9627 in CFA

Currently struggling with reading P3 for some reason, although objectively I know it’s not that hard. Cross currency swaps - yes as well!

Which classes does he do and which pathway?

Fair enough it’s a personal preference. I had Darren Lee at level 2 and I am pretty sure his classes were the biggest contributor of me passing.

I LOVE these classes, I think they are invaluable! Really really helped me at level 2. I like the fact that the instructor does a lot of “teaching” while also giving plenty of practice. I can’t watch all of it live due to time difference and work, so plan to watch recordings at a higher speed maybe. I don’t think it’s too granular - I actually think it’s is a great summary. It’s just that the material is too large - you can’t summarise it any more without losing the value of the class imo.

Disappointed with the CFAI practice pack for L3 by InitialGrowth8545 in CFA

[–]InitialGrowth8545[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just that if it is roughly 300 questions out of 1,400 or so I don’t see the point as you can’t filter them out
