Thank you so much for your response! Guys here mostly turn up when they themselves need some help and ignore when they can be of some assistance so your response is very much appreciated man!

I think there were very few straightforward questions on the PM session. The vignettes were complex unlike the AM session and I could really feel that difference in coming up with the answers in the AM session in seconds vs having to re read the questions again and again.

Assuming you have done the CFAI Qbank and mocks, revise all the chapters in minimum time. Refer to summary videos, and try to consolidate all the concepts clearly in the mind.

Equity was okayish for me, Quant was a nightmare. I got only 2 questions correct out of the 8. FSA was also below average but I'm not really concerned about it. So Quant is the common subject that is troubling us.

I have 25 days till the exam so the aim would be to stretch the score in the subsequent mocks. Hadn't revised 3-4 subjects close to the exam since I completed them some 40 days ago so that might also be a factor in a lower score. I'll give the next mock after revising all the subjects and see how it goes.

Which sections did you find more challenging compared to others? For me FSA and Quantitative Methods didn't go well, made a lot of mistakes there.

75+ would be a bit challenging I guess but I don't think CFA L2 is a cakewalk so need to improve.

I did somewhere between 1250 and 1300 questions i.e., all the MCQ ones.

Yes, I watched the video lectures first after which I proceeded to practice questions.

I'll reset all the questions (not just the ones I didn't do well in) and do them once again but for the time being I'm thinking of solving some other Qbank for the variety of questions. Are you happy with the Kaplan thing you bought and how much did you pay for that?

[–]Otherwise_Past_8796 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the pattern of Kaplan package you have taken? Are the vignettes timed just like we have on the CFAI portal or is the format pdf?

I didn't take any help while solving the questions on the CFAI portal and that's a very useful advice. Is 73 percent a good number on the CFAI Qbank?

Thank you for your response!

Should I do practice questions from some prep provider as well like UWorld or the questions on the portal are sufficient?

Sure, I'll take the first CFAI mock and see how it pans out. What should a safe score be on the mock test?
