L3 Grading over? Let's guess the pass rate.

CFA Level III
#1

I would guess that the L3 grading is over based on this link. http://events.linkedin.com/CFA-Institute-Grading/pub/89744 Anyone want to guess the pass rate will be? Any guesses on the pass rates being higher (i wish) or lower? I guess 50% +/- 5%. sh34

#2

You think it could be as low as 45%? It hasn’t been that low recently, if ever. I’d say more like 55% +/- 5%, but who knows.

#3

for those who are wasting their time guessing what will be the pass rate. I hope you all fail.

I think you can apply the same forward-looking logic on the pass rate. My ‘projection’ (do you like that term better?) for L3 pass rate is upward trending given: Lowest ever pass rate in 2008, (lots of seasoned retakers) 2009 material virtually identical to 2008, meaning retakers should cruise Many unemployed people, likely will do well People study harder during recessions

#16

the average pass rate of last six years is 61%, but this number of 2008 and 2007 is 50%\53%, so I guess this year is 58%-64%.

#18

CFAI has decided everyone passes this year…they think we have seen enough harship due to the market and job losses so they are going to be nice and pass everyone… NOT
