Yes, under you hypo I would use |1.99| for a two tailed (null equal to zero).  What do you mean by “variance”, exactly?

There was an incident a couple years back where posters here had their results voided by the CFAI for discussing exam questions so it seems stupid to try to use weasel words to try to discuss answers. 

The exam is done so chillax. Imagine getting sanctioned after all that hard work.

I only hope that if they are sanctioned by the CFA that they remain in the exam takers pool so we all have a better chance of passing …….. I need all the help I can get frankly. So Miss Cleo - fire away!!

I don’t understand why you are risking it. It happened in this forum where people got their results voided. If you need answers to pressing questions, stop being so lazy and go back to the CFAI books. I’m sure if you look closely you’ll find your answers.

People got their results voided?  Are you kidding me?  None sense friend.  There is no way for them to do that.  Really no one can do that, even AF here.  The only exceptin is law enforcement… *and* even then that can only occur under very lengthy coordination efforts subject to loads of international agreements and disagreements.  I’m not suggesting that one violate the code of ethics, just commenting on the part that they find out and void the results.  It just doesn’t work that way.

Disclosure of Exam Content

Following the exam, two Level II candidates, Anurag Jain and Nana Kweku Nduom, used Analyst Forum, an internet chat forum, to contribute, solicit, and compile June 2009 Level II CFA exam content. The information was compiled into a spreadsheet and further offered to other candidates via the internet forum and other internet sources. The Professional Conduct Program investigated these matters and found that the candidates engaged in the conduct, thereby compromising the integrity and security of the CFA exam in violation of the CFA Exam Rules, Candidate Pledge, and the CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct, specifically Standard VII(A) – Conduct as Members and Candidates in the CFA Program. Both Mr. Jain and Mr. Nduom requested a Hearing Panel. After consideration of the evidence in each respective case, the Hearing Panels determined the candidates’ conduct of compiling, soliciting, and distributing CFA exam content violated the CFA Exam Rules and the CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct and imposed the sanction of Five-Year Suspension from Participation in the CFA Program and Voiding of Exam Results on each respective candidate. 

Following the exam, a Level II candidate, Randall Lucas, posted on his blog regarding his experience at the CFA exam and mentioned topics covered and material not covered on the exam. At the time of the blog posting, the CFA exam was still being administered around the world. The Professional Conduct Program investigated the matter and found that the candidate engaged in the conduct and thereby violated the CFA Exam Rules and the CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct. The candidate accepted the sanction of Public Censure and Voiding of Exam Results.

Right. Don’t cheat with CFAI with playing with words. They’re not that stupid. The risk is just too great to justify the return. What is done , is done.

Fine delete this thread, even though for my own personal knowledge, if someone could clarify about calculating the variance based off of standard error I’d appreciate it.

And don’t forget, when u register AF using ur email address of university, find out ur identity is just a breeze!

It’s either they have law enforcement power, which is doubtful and tedious, given that CFA exam candidates come from all over the world, making it hard to believe CFAI could have legal agreements with international service providers.  Or, which is the most likely case, that those two candidates used the *same* email address for Analyst Forum as that for CFAI registration.  In that case, it was quite easy for CFAI to ask AF for the email address of the candidates, and matching it to CFAI records.  I work in this area and I know that it is not possible to get it from IP address.  Again, my point is not to say it’s ok to go against the pledge you signed, just questioning the ability of CFAI to get the required information and legally proving it.

Right, not through the university, but through CFAI records.  They don’t need the school’s help.
