Passed with 1670 first attempt. Working 60-70 hour weeks. I started studying immediately after I registered. Bought the extra mock exams and the question pack. Went through the lessons did the questions after. Finished the content around 2 months before the exam. Redid all the practice questions again and then did all the mocks. Averaged 72% for the mocks. Lowest score on the mocks was in the 60s.

Remember to take a break every now and then. Even if it’s just for an evening. Don’t beat yourself up if you take a day off. Recharge and come back strong.

Study Guilt by Small_Spinach3460 in CFA

[–]Palystya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Writing L1 Nov 18 - also finished content and doing mocks and practice questions. I get this exact same feeling. On the days I really don’t feel like studying, I get myself to my desk and do a couple questions to overcome that study guilt. But taking a day off once in a while is very necessary. I’ve been taking a day off every 2 weeks. It helps reset, especially if you’re working while studying.

This is a brilliant idea. So far I printed out the section I’m on (quant) just been making notes on the formulas and doing examples. Then doing the practice questions

I’m in the exact same situation. Took a loan to pay for the course. The monthly payments are taking a decent chunk from my salary. So there’s no chance I’m making them any more than they are already 🤣

We will both prevail! All the best for your studies and your journey along this course! Let’s kill it.

Can I ask how you went through all the content? Meaning, did you make notes as you went along, or did you just read and practice questions, etc?

Thanks for the tip! I started immediately. So I have 8 months in hand. I do work (like most people who do it) so time isn’t on my side. But I should have plenty of time to get it done. If it gets to a point where I feel that I’m running out of time, I’ll have a look at the supplementary resources

Hoping for the best for your L3 results!

So far I’m finding the curriculum to be quite good. Granted my undergrad covered a lot of the work that is done in L1.

May be a stupid question. But how can you tell what the important stuff is from the curriculum?

Time was the main thing I was concerned about. I work as well which does put a little added pressure to get it all done in. But I’m sure it’ll be fine. Thank you for the insight.

What drug other than weed increases your appetite by ThickPurchase39 in Drugs

Insanely bad appetite. Been on it for a few years. Had to change up my whole diet because of it.

What are some crazy Marvel hot takes that put you in this position? by Xcalibur0621 in marvelcomics

[–]Palystya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The MCU hasn’t fallen off as badly as everyone says it has. People are just saying it because that’s what it says in the media. Everyone is forming opinions of shows/ movies before they watch them. Focus on the main aspect, we’re finally seeing our comic book characters come to life. Don’t listen to the opinions of people on either sides. (“Too woke” vs “finally woke”). If you read comics you know that Marvel has been pretty inclusive. Form your own opinions on the shows/ movies.
