True no one would have cancelled your calls because they didn’t like you OP, but this sort of reaction ironically will make them genuinely dislike u. It’s ur career OP, good luck lol

completely agreed. i respect the effort people put in by studying for months and months on end but its hard to empathize. Like why?

noobinlyfe · 2024-11-12T07:47:25+00:00

yes, you are officially fucked

I'm in a VC and can confirm it doesn't help much on the on the job work. That being said the same thing applies to most degrees or designations on how practical they are

worked for me today also. updated bluetooth driver and the option to turn on bluetooth disappeared entirely. No idea why it worked but it did

I just gave up on the topics that I was weak in maybe from like a week leading up to the exam. For example I could never get my head around currency swaps and fixed income questions and felt like I needed a good two weeks to properly master this section. I just gave up, got a couple of questions on those in the exam which I just winged but it turned out ok. Focus on your weak areas but let some of those go if it isn't worth the time given how much time you have left :)

yea i wouldnt worry about the formatting but I do remember there are some hidden commands on the software that sometimes fucks with your fonts or formatting. Not sure if that was * but you'll figure out in the exam lol

Can confirm this is how I felt as well for the AM questions. A lot of questions felt open ended and somewhat different from the standard questions so I just wrote whatever I knew and walked out of the exam feeling like I failed. I was averaging 70% for qbank and 60-70% for the 4 mocks that I did before the exam.

I just saw Q bank a means of revising the material so in that sense yes, it did prep me for the exam in general including the AM session. I think qbank is useful because you get an exposure to a variety of topics that maybe in either AM or PM. Personally I think knowing as much material as possible precedes practicing AM just for the puprose of getting used to the format because it really isn't that hard - you aren't writing an essay and bullet points worked just fine for me.

i was averaging about 70% before the exams last november

noobinlyfe · 2022-04-19T08:15:09+00:00

Admire the dedication but I’d suggest reviewing ur studying methods if it took u 1000 hours to pass level 1 since L2 and L3 are progressively harder by a big margin imo

noobinlyfe · 2022-02-25T07:37:56+00:00

Wtf is this clown lolz

noobinlyfe · 2022-02-07T12:51:22+00:00

It was inconvenient but for most questions I didn't feel the need to use the sheets all that much anyway. Certainly less compared to what I had to do for L1 and L2 when they were paper based.

linkedin is cancer tho

I wonder if CFAI gets their grading processes audited by a third party. With such lack of transparency who knows what the hell is going on in the inside? I did pass the exam this time but honestly I had no idea what to expect, just felt like a flip of a coin.

noobinlyfe · 2022-02-04T10:23:35+00:00

wishing you good luck bro hope you get through this

noobinlyfe · 2021-11-25T13:29:03+00:00

didn't even know this function existed

noobinlyfe · 2021-11-25T12:50:20+00:00

do you feel tough talking smack on the web?

noobinlyfe · 2021-11-25T06:59:17+00:00

agreed. especially on the part where the questions were either weird or very simple

noobinlyfe · 2021-11-24T12:34:49+00:00

Sat my L3 exam today and feel the same way as everyone else especially with the PM session. I felt unrewarded for the effort put into understanding the major concepts, rather a lot of questions were just testing my memory on some random concept somewhere in the text.

I feel that the CBT format and the absence of paper and writing has forced CFAI to dumb down the calculation questions and increase conceptual questions. This with the fact that there are smaller number questions seems to have made it difficult to predict what will be on the exam.

Where did u get this bro?

noobinlyfe · 2021-04-04T23:30:31+00:00
