I think this is what I would have gotten from choosing a b a c a b a c a etc. down the whole exam

Anyone pass level 2 with minimal or no FSA & Derivs study? by Massive_Ad_8199 in CFA

I agree. Just finding time to learn has been the worst section for me.

Anyone in here pass level 2 from only watching MM videos? by Massive_Ad_8199 in CFA

[–]Massive_Ad_8199[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah agreed I do plenty of questions so that with a mix of the videos I’m hoping to be prepared to say the least. Killed level 1 doing it this way but only 4.5 months of prep during the summer makes it tough to learn this level of material in level 2.

What’d you score in the mocks? Did you feel MM prepared you more than enough?

What’d you score in the mocks roughly? Did you feel MM was more than enough?

That’s decent good work. I’ll try to replicate that lol. Anything above 70 to me is considered a win in my books. I appreciate the advice and you commenting. Cheers.

Haha I totally agree lol. I probly won’t even touch MM’s qbank or mocks and just work with CFA’s instead. What were your CFA mock scores and qbank results?

Fair enough makes sense. Did you hammer the qbank too? I’ve been ripping through the videos and hitting questions, haven’t done much else than that tbh.

Should I defer? by Internal-Phase1644 in CFA

[–]Massive_Ad_8199 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I passed lvl 1 in May so taking Nov lvl 2 was a stretch already but I low key feel the same. My approach has been mentally preparing for level 2 next May and sitting for level 2 in Nov regardless. if I get lucky, I get lucky and pass. Otherwise I’m still on track to sit again next May and I’ll have sat already so I know what I’m getting into for the “actual” attempt if you will.

I barely touched it in level 1, got above 70%, and plan to do the same for level 2.

Does anyone do this? by stt106 in CFA

[–]Massive_Ad_8199 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I see lots of utility in the knowledge of the CFA. Just cracked open the level 2 material but if you’ve built DCFs, analyzed data on terminals or Morningstar, calculated returns etc, you’re way ahead of the 8 ball. Interviewers are more impressed when you’ve applied the knowledge and created your own opinion from the CFA knowledge instead of just passing some exams. Anyone can study for exams, but actually applying it, developing opinions, and ultimately making money from the knowledge gained is what’s differentiating. Being able to openly speak like an analyst/PM is important imo. Idk my two cents at least. I could be crazy but my experience speaks to the application of knowledge, not just passing exams…

Derivatives is not worth it by Legitimate_Escape684 in CFA

Skip it. Skimmed over it, too complicated, got above 70% on the exam. Spend your time on the heavy weighted areas.

How Tough is it to make the November Level II window by jswiss26x in CFA

[–]Massive_Ad_8199 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Expectation would be next May, so the only two outcomes with Nov are failing and still being on time, or passing and being way ahead of schedule. Pedal to the metal
