To me practising morning mocks was the deal breaker. I smashed both AM and PM - though my focus was only on AM mocks. Spent last two/three weeks touching base on Ethics and GIPS. My advice dont spend too much time trying to cover all the curriculum material, rather get started with AM section of the exams as early as you can - preferably after each study session. Get into a study group or get someone to mark your mocks - i found the services of these guys very helpful - http://www.level3.analystninja.com/. Simple advice like not spending too much time on relatively low-point questions and showing calculations as graders assign partial credit for correct procedures/partial answers, really helped. Arif videos were a good time saver………
