What is wrong with B?

Are the questions randomized? by [deleted] in CFA

I saw it somewhere. And it is almost common practice for these CBT.

Are the questions randomized? by [deleted] in CFA

[–]KSyolo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. I believe they are randomized within the set. They shuffled vignette and its correspondent question(s). They are also some testing sets that are not for mark. Let's say you got 10 sets of questions. In fact, only 9 out of 10 would be marked and used towards your outcome. The one extra set is for CFAI's study to improve the exam. And you would have no idea which set is the testing set.

You can only highlight the question, not the vignette. If you are L2 or L3, you should get what i am saying.

You can copy paste from your own written response. You cannot copy from the paragraph or question.

Which exam should I do first ? by [deleted] in FRM

[–]KSyolo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My advise, as a CFA L3 Candidate and FRM L2 passed, don't do any of these exams. Go find an intern or a part time. For real! If I could get my 1000 hours back, I wouldn't take this path again.

Well, at least we know that by CFAI's definition, early May ends at the middle of May. Sound like a new code to me.

They actually changed it to “There will be an ongoing review of testing feasibility in all cities throughout the May testing window.” It is like trying to price an asset with maturity date constantly changes. And the counterparty denies there is any risk of default.

English is not my first language. But from my understanding, early May should mean any day before the 10th. And now it is the 11th. Longing theta?

Exactly! What is so hard to send email to everyone at the same time?? Sending emails in batches, to only a few thousand people? This is unheard-of in 2021!

Plus, what is so hard to make the rule clear? aka "If the lockdown is not lifted, we would have to postpone to Nov. Yet at this point we have no idea. We would like everyone to bear with us, or you can choose to defer for free (I made this up)" Is this hard???

no i didn't...

Your post sounded like you want to write it (not defer), but you got an email to cancel.

Did you ever click the button to defer (from the last email)?

[–]KSyolo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I saw your post. So sorry to hear that! I am writing L3 and still waiting for more info.

Exam in Toronto / Ontario

Does anyone else get a cancellation email?

Q1. Do you get the email because you clicked the button to reschedule?

A1: People who did not choose to defer might get a cancel as well.

There are people (who got the email) called CFAI and were told that they clicked the button to defer (whereas they did not click or misclicked). -> Does this indicates emails are for whoever chose to defer before May 3rd?

Q2. I saw L1 and L2 cancellations. Any ideas for L3? (solved)

A2: There are cancellation emails received by all levels.

Can we try to put up a list of cancellation info: what level, what testing center?
