20 days for all EOC questions?

CFA Level III
#1

Hi,

Is 20 days enough to do and redo all the EOC questions?

Just starting with it.

THanks!

#2

do AND redo? not sure.

do OR redo? yes.

#3

Will you be doing mocks as well? 20 days is tight.

#4

No mocks. I have never ever taken a mock for Level I or 2.

Just reviewing the concepts again and again does the job for me.

However, I do want to go over the EOC questions. Is 20 days enough for that?

#5

May god have mercy on your soul.

#6

Amen

#7

Wow…no mocks… go you

#8

Guys, how would you call this bias ?

is it representativeness or confirmation ?

I would say this is more cognitive than emotional.

#9

Its neither. There is no time left for it.

#10

Lets throw in conservatism…maybe anchoring and adjustment even better…hindsight.

I mean whatever floats your boat sunpak. Good luck.

#11

sunpak, with all due respect, if you don’t at least go through some of the old AM sessions from previous exams (not necessarily taking them as “mock exams,” there is a 99% chance you will fail. i would bet on it, frankly. I am a retaker (band 9) - L3 is night and day different from L1 and L2. while it is critical to go through the EOCs, the most important aspect of Level 3 is PRACTICE. I have heard from countless people who failed L3 because they ran out of time (they spend too much time developing the perfect answers).

showing up to test day without taking a practice exam (AM session) is worse than showing up with shoe laces to a gun fight…trust me.

ps - there are a ton of biases he is suffering from. from his tone and reasoning, i would say conservatism and overconfidence…you need to do some Bayesian updating bro!

Adaptive markets hypothesis (AMH):

Better luck in 2016…

A: Yes

Q: Is Doing redoing redoing redoing EOC enough for CFA-III?

A. WAAHAHAHAHA

#15

Is there a point at which we can stop giving good advice and just let people make mistakes? After all every fail makes you statistically more likely to pass

As confucius said: “The best protection from a big bear is a slow friend…”

#16

TS listen to us and do at the very least one AM mock. You are in for a couple of panic moments on exam day otherwise. At best.

#17

Yes, you can easily do and redo the EOCs.

I’ll sit for my first am mock tonight (dum dum dum). I must admit, im feeling fairly confident given my pm scores and my eoc batting avg. Perhaps this will put me in my place and kill my confidence

#18

Where do you find the mocks?

I see three on the CFA website.

Are there any other?

Thanks,

#19

Guys, I’ve been practing the AM mock exams. But I’m quite worried that I’m paying less attention on the PM part even though I’ve done all the BBs and EOCs. I don’t want to be caught off guard come exam day. Any tips on how to prepare better for the PM part?

#20

Sunny- Stay with the original plan and focus on EOCs.

If you didn’t do any mocks for LI or LII, then your study technique ain’t broke – no need to fix it.
