This was new to me until this weekend. Anyway, you get scores in 3 bands. Assume the worst is 40%, middle is 60%, and the best is 80%. Then, you can estimate your overall score. cfafa Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > can someone explain the 40/60/80 concept? or post > a link to help me understand?

67.6% - Pass babe…
Thanks echason!
Looks like they weighted morning section harder this year. Prior years if you ace’d multiple choice and squeezed by in morning, you were good for a pass. Now, u need almost over 65% in both sections 40/60/80 Morning 60% Afternoon 72% Total 65.83% Failed!
cross, you were very close, because I got 60% morning 74% afternoon under 80/60/40 scoring and passed with a 67.4
69.89% AM 60.00% PM 64.9% Total - Pass - seems near the threshold…I saw a 63.9% pass too, although something higher with a fail…obviously this metric is only a rough guideline…And most importantly, a pass is a pass…
70.83 - PASS
68.2778% - Pass
67.0% fail (Band 10)
AM - 56.8 PM - 68 Total 62.44 FAIL this with better than 70% on ethics. I could puke…so disappointed in myself, and yet I already printed 2010 LOS. back on the horse.
72.9% pass
Buck - So what u are telling me is… the last 2 multiple choice questions I guessed on, which later I found out were the wrong answer, cost me a year worth of studying! uggg…the CFA Institute are in their own world. A lot of these scores would have past only 2 years ago.
63.39% Pass

cannot believe i did worse on the pm than am: am: 71.2 pm: 62.0 total: 66.6
AM: 65.9% PM: 80.0% Pass
63.11% morning, 78% afternoon. Thank you mulitple choice for the 70.55% and the pass.

WHAT’S THE MATTER WITH INDIVIDUAL 9? ALMOST ALL THE SCORES I’VE SEEN HERE WERE BELOW 50%! IT WAS ALMOST THE ONLY ONE I THOUGH SHOULD HAVE GIVEN ME 100%! (ANOTHER SUPRISES ARE EVAL. AND ETHICS). But anyway… who cares… THANKS GOD I DID IT! (40/60/80 seems really to be a weak benchmark for L3)
64.11% failed band 8.
65.55% and 70% morning/afternoon= pass… agree with Kostia, 40/60/80 is weak metric, but only for afternoon imho…morning i think it is more accurate.
