pretty sure i will fail…
<5% pass
75% sure I passed. May be the folly of forecasting.

Everyone I know is far more sure that I passed than I am. This is not a good situation to be in as I can only disappoint.
I spoke with a Schweser instructor. He mentioned that our assumptions are more often than not wrong. For example, you think you did well in the morning… Guess what, you only did well in the afternoon. So there may be merit in feeling you failed, but in a borderline sense:)

This is so true. Everyone says “I’m sure you did fine!” and acts as if passing is just a given since I studied so much.

When I told them I passed, they were like “I told you that you would. I just don’t get it why you were so worried” They have no clue what is behind a level II pass…
does anyone know what percentage of ppl that passed L2 passed it on first try?
this : “I spoke with a Schweser instructor. He mentioned that our assumptions are more often than not wrong. For example, you think you did well in the morning… Guess what, you only did well in the afternoon. So there may be merit in feeling you failed, but in a borderline sense:)” is so true. Last year, I felt that I had passed and when I got the results, found that I did do well in the afternoon but not the morning. total shock.

I know for a fact I struggled in the afternoon and physically was not feeling great as my lunch was not sitting well. I find out shortly whether I was able to pull my sh!t together or not. Also, I have found that because of the way we are taught to take tests (easy points first) we forget the layups we knocked down and only remember the tougher questions we had to put more time into. With any luck I will find that I was just honing in on thepain from the hard questions when I remember the exam.
