There are over 550 EOC questions in the CFAI curriculem, and I am pretty sure 90% of them are pretty self explanatory or they come up in the Schweser Qbank or Mock Exam. However, there are those remaining 5-10% which are pretty tricky questions that you would never have noticed unless you did the EOC and kept them on record. I have to review my notes because I was pretty unorganized in keeping the tough EOC questions, but will compile a list here soon. Maybe we can formula it by using the following format: Reading X, EOC Question X Reading X, EOC Question X Reading X, EOC Question X Hopefully we can can a list of the top 25-50 questions (5-10%) from CFAI that are the must review before the exam. The more people contribute the better as everyone has differing opinions as to whats difficult and gone unnoticed in the Schweser exams. Thx guys,
I will go through my notes tonight. I have quite a few.
Perfect. I’ll give this thread 1-2 days and at the end I’ll write a post with a list by order of Reading # and Question # all the toughest / not obvious questions in the CFAI curriculem. Hopefully this thread will get good participation so it can be effective.
Brilliant idea, guys!!!
Soccertom9 - You (and everyone else) are the man! That would be perfect! I want to review the EOC but didn’t think it would be time-effective as I need to do the practice exams. Thanks.
Brilliant~
Not obscure, but important: Reading 48 - GIPS, Question 26
Love the idea 'll start throwing in some stuff I’ve been woking on lately on CFA books R36 ex28,31,32,37,39,43 R40 ex2,5 R41 ex1,2,3,4 Note that this selection is of course personal, and reflects more exercises I got wrong or wanted to remember that “best” problems See ya!
Global Perf Reading 47 Question 5 (remember it like the back of my hand after solving for 3 times). Reading 44 Question 10 and 11 Reading 48 Agree with Question 26, I would add Question 9 and Question 7 Reading 23 Question 4 Reading 27 Question 9-14 (based on one vignette) Thats all i got on top of my head, will add more later.
Reading 30, Question 29

Comon guys, throw in some selective exercises, that’s really worth it if we play ball there!

It’s in asset allocation.
Reading 31 - 1, 3 4
Friday by 6:00 pm I’ll compile the list of Readings and questions. I’ll try and summarize it into as little amount as possible so its easy for everyone to review them all.
thanks, thepinkman. I’m using your list for review.
To add to the discussion… Does anybody have any really good examples from the text; aside from the EOCs, that they would like to share? I’m going through all the EOCs over the next couple of days, and will contribute what I perceive as being quality. Appreciated.
Here is a list of the readings and question so far.
