67.6% - Pass babe..

Who said studying can’t be fun? Now there’s a complete study solution for all 3 CFA levels that’s as mobile, smart, and competitive as you are.

Looks like they weighted morning section harder this year. Prior years if you ace’d multiple choice and squeezed by in morning, you were good for a pass.

Now, u need almost over 65% in both sections

40/60/80

Morning 60%

Afternoon 72%

Total 65.83%

Failed!

cross, you were very close, because I got 60% morning 74% afternoon under 80/60/40 scoring and passed with a 67.4

69.89% AM
60.00% PM
64.9% Total - Pass - seems near the threshold…I saw a 63.9% pass too, although something higher with a fail…obviously this metric is only a rough guideline….And most importantly, a pass is a pass…

Buck - So what u are telling me is…

the last 2 multiple choice questions I guessed on, which later I found out were the wrong answer, cost me a year worth of studying!

uggg….the CFA Institute are in their own world.

A lot of these scores would have past only 2 years ago.

maybe they put more weight on the morning section? i see that as reasonable. you actually have to know the stuff as opposed to guessing the right answer.. although a lot of the morning involved guessing an answer i suppose. i also rocked the morn and blew chunks in the aft.

40/60/80:
AM: 63%
PM: 76%
OVERALL: 69.5%
Better than L2, worse than L1, +/-3% of expected, all on 1st attempt!

WHAT’S THE MATTER WITH INDIVIDUAL 9? ALMOST ALL THE SCORES I’VE SEEN HERE WERE BELOW 50%! IT WAS ALMOST THE ONLY ONE I THOUGH SHOULD HAVE GIVEN ME 100%! (ANOTHER SUPRISES ARE EVAL. AND ETHICS).

But anyway… who cares… THANKS GOD I DID IT!

(40/60/80 seems really to be a weak benchmark for L3)

64.11% failed band 8.

65.55% and 70% morning/afternoon= pass… agree with Kostia, 40/60/80 is weak metric, but only for afternoon imho…morning i think it is more accurate.

Hey guys, big time lurker, failed last year - past this one. Also slightly drunk. Because I passed. But check this out - the questions are sets of six. Shouldn’t we be calculating our scores based on a 33.33 ; 66.67 ; 83.33 range? mine gets way closer to 70 this way
