I’m not a regular poster but I come here to surf the topics and learn from the discussion and the back and forth. I’ve followed some of these guys and they all seem like they’re like me - having a go and testing ideas out on each other. Why do you feel the need to stir shit up? Early on in the year, it’s a bit like “this guy again”, but now, when people are genuinely trying to polish it up for the exam, it’s just not helpful - you’re pissing me off.
That Magician guy - he should have a contract with AF, as I’m here reading the posts, and the ads, because of him. As a candidate, I come hear what he, the CFAfatso guy, vicky_cool400 and all the other posters have to say as I can relate to what they’re going through - I’m impressd with some of their patience.
Your stupid bullshit as above is a waste of fuckin time. I’m pissed off that I had to spend my time writing this note but you annoy me that much. I’ve seen some racist crap on here, and discussions entered into about it (eg, Jews, Indians etc) - It’s bullshit mate - grow up. If you can’t add value, don’t write anything. Or, better still (as I ain’t going to reply to anything after this post), keep writing and fail so you don’t ruin all the good material others are writing.
I don’t know how people are getting 80-90% in these tests. I saw one guy got close to 99% which is just laughable.
All that matters is that you do well and get 70%. I’m certainly not disheartened by hearing people getting 90% in the mocks. Most of those guys are retakers.
If my score can cheer u guys up: my CFAI mock2012 am score was only 45 pct
i seem unable to retain any info. Forgetting simple formulas.
Still, all is not lost. Will keep on trying. At least the score was better than 29% (!!!) schweser mock i took a few weeks back. So now done with second revision, planning to do nothin but mock/quiz till may 31
Thanks for posting. Certainly helps with the selection bias on this site. I scored a 50% on the 2012 Mock. I let AF get to me on Level 1 when I saw guys posting crazy good mock scores. Just need to keep in mind that:
You’re more likely to post results if you do well on them.
Nobody knows if a posted test result is legit or not.
The people who post on AF do so because they are tapping every resource they can for this test. They probably are not your average test-taker.
All that being said, take the 80-90% results as a kick in the ass and get crunching on the studies! 18 days will pass before you know it. Good luck to all!
I just took 2012 cfai mock the other half (am, yday was pm) though it is still bad at 60 pct, it is better than 45 Yday or 29 few weeks back. I know qs in am and pm are different, so will keep on doing mocks till may 31 to spice things up mixing CFAI, elan, schweser
