just took my cfa AM mock after 3 schweser tests and scored 52%. Was scoring around 60-65% in schweser AM and around 70 in schweser PM tests. Is it hopeless for me? With only 4 days left?!
Of course it’s not hopeless. Just work through the ones you got wrong and make sure you understand them. Rinse and repeat- that’s all any of us can do at this point (practice, revise, practice.)
FWIW- there is little to no value in looking at practice/mock exam “overall” scores- frankly,my scores have always seemed to be about +/- 10 pts (anywhere from 60-80, depending on the day and topics covered.) I might be worried if I get 2/6 on an MC (or less than 50% on a written question) but I’ll just work through it and get it next time. No point in getting excited/depressed about a “pass” or “fail” on mock exams… they don’t count, and there are no participation awards for the real thing!!
PS I thought the AM multiple choice was pretty tough.
My AM CFAI was 15 percentage points lower than average from 6 Schweser PM. It’s misleadingly straightforward with lots of traps. My PM was way better - try it before giving up
Thank you so much guys! Took a quick break, will review now and try the PM. I was seriously considering giving up. Thanks guys!!
The misleadingly straightforward way of testing us all is pretty frustrating. Would rather it just be outright difficult…
