I think that Rahul Roy will receive a personal phone call from the President of the CFA Institute and a congratulatory medal of honor for officially becoming the fist CFA candidate to ever score a perfect 120/120
Hoping for the best, but prepared for the worstā¦ probably failed Band 8, knew my stuff, but just couldnāt manage to do any mocks due to work schedule. Thereās nothing worse than that opening sentence āWe regretā¦ā Itās like a one-year prison sentence.
I am definitely predicting a fail for me, I had 3 really bad (2 correct out of 6 at best) vignettes out of 20 but the other 17 Iāll need to have nailed to pass, which is very unlikely given the nature of the exam.
I have spent sevral hours since after the exam poring over the likely outcomes of the examā¦ something likeā¦ Ethics 70+, Equity 70+, Port Mgt 50-70 ā¦ did this by trying to recollect each question that troubled me and then assumed I failed them (though I might nail it by my guess shadings), also gave varying allowances that I even fail a number of questions I supposedly solved correctly.
I keep reaching the same conclusion of a successā¦ a good number of 70+ and some 50-70ā¦ I dont see possibility of any <50. Now thatās high hopes or faith.
I felt very good leaving the exam (minus the portfolio management section(s)) but the doubt has risen substaintially in the last few weeksā¦ Iām guessing a band 9 :-/
