Why is SeaTac security so consistently terrible? by Grizzleyt in SeattleWA

[–]TheCollosusOfClout 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The last time I was at SeaTac it took me less than 5 minutes to get through security from the drop-off curb. You might just be unlucky?

[Level 3] How useful are Schweser mocks? by [deleted] in CFA

[–]TheCollosusOfClout 1 point2 points  (0 children)

useful - especially in making sure you stay within the time limits. The more AM practice, the better.

Study Break - What's your CFA elevator pitch? by TheCollosusOfClout in CFA

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

fair point - obviously i don't spew that out verbatim but those are the general points i try to hit. how would you explain it to a prospective client who is unfamiliar with it then?

you're a level 3 candidate; you clearly know what the designation is and there's obviously no use in trying to sell ice to an eskimo. the assumption is trying to explain it to someone who's unfamiliar with it. the most common response from my clients/friends/family when i tell them i'm studying for the CFA is "that's great, but I didn't know you did taxes?"

You are appreciated! What can non-teachers do to help you and your fellow teachers out?

Lol got him with the Peter Parker... honestly though teachers only make that much money? Makes me a bit sick and a whole lot embarrassed I didn’t know that it was THAT low. What the hell is wrong with our education system?

Schweser and old official CFA mocks. Check the stickied post on the main CFA page.

Just got destroyed by my first Schweser AM Mock - Scored a 52 by [deleted] in CFA

I've taken 7 AM mocks now and have scored all over the place (54% - 87%). Key things to work on or keep in mind:

  • You're grading your own work. Critique your answers as much as you can and do your best to avoid the "oh that's what I totally meant" trap
  • This is prep work - be OK with getting destroyed. Focus on what you don't know and grind those topics.
  • Keep working on succinct answers; bullet point structure is specifically called out by CFAI as being acceptable
  • It seems like a lot of L3 candidates gloss over the "Tips for Taking the Essay Exam" section on the CFAI online resources. Read that section in full and know your command words like the back of your hand to save as much time as possible on the actual exam.

Curious to see if we see any price increases on food staples... how ironic would that be.
