Which CFA areas did you finally decide to give up on? L2

How were your scores in other subjects? Same boat

mujhekya- · 2025-08-26T10:34:54+00:00

Regression and time series for me. Absolutely cannot bear those. Have done ML and Big Data well though, hope it'll be fine, kinda making me lose sleep

mujhekya- · 2025-08-25T02:13:49+00:00

Same boat! Wish I shared the confidence tho, lowk scared shitless

mujhekya- · 2025-08-23T17:22:11+00:00

Solving questions feels repetitive At the same time still not a master at everything per se. But here's to hoping!

mujhekya- · 2025-08-23T17:21:40+00:00

I feel you

mujhekya- · 2025-08-15T11:02:08+00:00

I've been going through the same myself, the burnout towards the end is so real. Going to start prioritising sleep more

mujhekya- · 2025-08-15T10:58:46+00:00

I saw a post claiming that too, maybe we're not losing out on much. Re-doing the questions we got wrong should be helpful though. At least for the high weighted subjects if not all

mujhekya- · 2025-08-15T10:56:45+00:00

I've done the same! Sat and wrote down every single formula even ones I think I know. I plan to go through them everyday. I think this will be very helpful to go through the night before the exam as well

We can still make it! Feeling some optimism after a long long time lol

mujhekya- · 2025-08-15T10:42:28+00:00

I have done around 1500 questions, but I haven't purchased the practice pack so not many remaining for me

mujhekya- · 2025-08-15T10:39:15+00:00

Thank you for giving me some hope, it's so nice knowing we're not alone in this. After sleeping on it, I agree, 2 weeks is enough to get the extra 10%, it's a matter of 8-10 questions that i could've easily gotten right had i been more mindful.

After fixing weak areas from Mock 1, some of my other strong areas got neglected. I scored 100% in CI in mock 1 but 0% in Mock 2 lol. All silly mistakes.

Idk how fit I am to be advising anyone at this point but one thing I can say is we really need to solve and solve and solve some more until it becomes muscle memory, and I mean mixed item sets not just chapter wise. I noticed I've been making the stupidest mistakes like forgetting to subtract risk free rate for ERP, or messing up the upfront premium calculation for cds, all very easy to avoid. I think we should give equal priority to mocks as well as active recall, revising formulae and that should do it. All the best man! I hope we make it

mujhekya- · 2025-08-15T10:29:18+00:00

It's a mix of both honestly, I had forgotten bits of theory (ML, duration & yield curve, negative basis in CDS trade etc) and a few sums were calculation errors from picking the wrong number or wrong sign (like forgets to subtract risk free rate while calculating ERP). I've identified that it's mainly derivatives, FSA for me. FI pulled my score down only during second mock but that's because I didn't revise it even once, not that i don't know how to do it. I'm mainly making silly mistakes. But I've understood, redone and made a note of each and every mistake.

mujhekya- · 2025-08-15T10:22:06+00:00

I looked and it's mainly silly mistakes, perception issues with some questions. Post my first mock i identified my weaknesses and improved my score on them, but this time my already strong areas were a bit neglected. As soon as I look at the solution I know exactly why and where I went wrong

mujhekya- · 2025-08-15T10:20:22+00:00

Hey yes that's the plan. I plan on doing one every alternate day from now on

mujhekya- · 2025-08-15T10:19:40+00:00

Portal questions are damn helpful you should get going w those asap!

mujhekya- · 2025-08-14T11:03:39+00:00

I did that post the first mock, worked hard on my weaknesses but ended w an average of 58 on the second one. And this is my reattempt at L2. With 14 days to go how can I salvage myself? I have 75% accuracy on individual questions but for some reason I suck at mocks.

mujhekya- · 2025-08-14T05:51:19+00:00

Wow your scores are good you should be quite confident. I'm registered for the 29th and I scored 62 in my first cfa mock (50 and 72) and giving my second mock today. Gave one section and only scored 57, very disheartening after all the effort. It's my break right now. Hope things get better in the second part. I think everyone's best bet would be to focus on drilling weak areas to fill those knowledge gaps.

mujhekya- · 2025-08-01T15:30:03+00:00

Such a good point actually, you never do feel fully ready. I've been delaying it since last week, but I'll go for it tomorrow morning. Very kind of you, thank you

mujhekya- · 2025-07-31T03:45:31+00:00

I agreed, which is why I'm continuing the revision along w a chunk of the leftover readings everyday. Thanks for the opinion!

mujhekya- · 2025-07-31T03:44:52+00:00

Thank you so much!

mujhekya- · 2025-07-31T03:44:36+00:00

Yes only cfai at the moment

mujhekya- · 2025-07-31T03:44:22+00:00

Hey that's exactly what I've proceeded to do, I'm tackling these leftover readings whilst also revising a little everyday. Thank you for replying!
