Last two weeks ethics and GIPS strategy ?

CFA Level III
#1

hi all, i have mainly been focusing on the morning sections and topics besides GIPS and ethics, I wonder if anyone can give me some constructive advice about the massiv ethics section and incredibly annoying GIPS section?

I am also struggling with all the tedious small calculation and details in other sections too, maybe I have been too overwhelmed by those to focus on the bigger idea, should I just mock mock and do all the morning real questions over and over?

Thank you and good luck everyone

GIPS, watched the Schweser videos, took notes. Focusing on the main issues, required things and if applicable required things. For ethics, just tons of EOC questions and Topic Tests.

#3

anyone else?

#4

I am relying on questions in mocks to help me prep for ethics and gips. Also I plan on reading through their summaries the previous evening before the test. Checkout summaries like Kroko’s on GIPS. I have not read a single page from schweser and curriculum but still scoring 4/6 thanks to them.

For the second thing, I think again mocks is the answer.

I’m in the same boat mostly bc they are so ambiguously worded for ethics… they love to trick you with ethics instead of just making sure you understand not to act irresponsible …

#6

I am going through it and wanna Stab myself mostly because it’s so long and dry

#7

while i really think both are easy part of the exams, in the sense it`s way easier to get points than other parts…

#8

I’m just hoping GIPS will be an item set if at all. Not too focussed on these 2 as it’s just a lot of memory work and just going to get the gist of it. It’s the essay part that we should be worried about and how we answer.

At least read these. I would look at presentation at least because that is relatively easy.
