Fixed Income and Asset Allocation

CFA Level III
#1

Hi All,

I’m pretty much done with the TT for FI and asset allocation and my scores are not great on these topics. I’m “Proficient” in all areas except these two which are the new readings. Any thoughts on how else to practice? Anyone else struggling with these? I did EOCs for readings #22 and #23 twice and the second time scored way over 80%. Overall I’m close to 70% in TT though I have to do derivatives and I worked on TTs over a long period of time.

My score on mock tests was also down because of these topics.

Thanks

Believe me, I am in the same boat. It took me more time to do FI this year than everything else. I am still not confident. I am redoing BB and eoc’s as many times as iI can and item sets. That’s the only thing we can really do.

Thank you. Not that I want others to suffer too but it makes me feel a bit better. Yes, I guess I’ll keep doing blue boxes again and again.
