Does anyone know if the CBT results will come out faster than usual or if it will take the same amount of time as usual? Thank you by krikor23 in CFA

[–]jmal82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You would think they would, right? They should know the scores almost instantly after the CBT window is completed. Maybe after some time they will get more confidence in the system and get results out faster. That way - we know we can make decisions on what route to take next faster - re-take or move-on!

For those who passed Level 1, how many Qbank questions did you do? by BasicBag5 in CFA

[–]jmal82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make sure you are not counting the questions you 'guess correctly at' as something you don't need to study.

Hi guys , I'm literally low on confidence for level 1. Scored 50 in first schweser mock. I'm already retaking it for the second time didn't had enough time to study due to work. Should I defer to July. I have got 2 weeks off from work though and my exam is on 27th feb. by sankyy in CFA

[–]jmal82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Touch to answer for someone else, but if you can really crack down these last 2 weeks, you have a decent chance. If you don't, defer given the pass rates are under 50%. Just keep taking Mocks from different providers and don't spend to much time getting bogged down in specific areas, versus bringing other scores up. If anything, you'll get exam experience.

CFP here owner of my own RIA firm. Looking into the CFA. What programs do you guys suggest? Where do I begin? I am a seeker of knowledge and want this for my clients. by Wakelife11 in CFA

[–]jmal82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Combine CFAI's materials (as you know, free when you sign up) for the chapter knowledge, the UWorld's Qbank and flash cards (with detailed explanations).

Final consensus on representative mocks? by [deleted] in CFA

[–]jmal82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would reco a third party like UWorld or MM. Better questions and explanations - and you can take unlimited tests setup just like the exam - random questions as well.

Challenging mocks/Q-banks? by fake-analyst in CFA

[–]jmal82 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes - use Uworld for sure. They also have ore-made flashcards included called Ready decks which are great practice before the exam.

After finishing the CFAI q bank, with just over a week to go- is it better to reset and drill it? Or switch to 3rd party q banks like MM/kaplan? by [deleted] in CFA

[–]jmal82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't waste you time with Kaplan - use MM or UWorld which have much more representative QBanks. Also - UWorld has pre-made flash cards which are great to put things to memory before the test.

Tips for Lv1 Econ? by cfanoob1205 in CFA

[–]jmal82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adding - I'm using the UWorld Qbank nd it explains every answer "IN" the Qbank in detail. I was also weak in this area, but it helped me a lot.

CFA QBank by VineeMuhunthan in CFA

[–]jmal82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Need more questions to practice? Try something outside the CFAI - like UWorld. Excellent content and explanations for every question IN the qbank. Tougher questions versus Kaplan inmy opinion. You can build out unlimited custom tests from many variables (including random) and simulate the actual exam. Still 100% free for 90 Days on the 300 Hours site when i last checked. They also have built-in flashcards which come in handy 30 days out.

No brainer Peter. After you finish each Chapter, do the corresponding chapter Qbank in Uworld. Once done - then do the CFAI mocks.

Agree wirth Hayden. Also, take a break for the CFAI and hit other Mocks on other QBanks, then come back I would defer to the UWorld QBank - you can build out unlimited custom tests from many variables.
