CFA Level I
#1

thx.

#2

at the end of the day… does it really matter?

#3

book 6

#4

Personally, and my opinion is based upon only having taken one CFAI exam, I found Book 6 more difficult.

#5

CFAI because of the way it is administered.

#6

agree with ttouchst - the fact that it was a CFAI administered test itself was good enough to give me butterfiles in the tummy. btw, on a related note.what are yall going to have for breakfast. i am going to be staying at a hotel -but still will stick to my comfort food in the morning,however sumptuous the breakfast spread might be

#7

hmmmm not sure, im never that hungry in the morning… its lunch that im more worried about…hmmm

#8

I always have just fruit for breakfast, but I think I’ll go with something more filling on Saturday. Proteins are good, nothing greasy though b/c it makes you sluggish (unless it’s polyunsaturated). Carbs are also good but just for a short period of time. Maybe complex carbs + proteins.

#9

how bout coffee and redbull?

#10

how about cofee and an pack of cigs… BTW…im pretty stoked right now. just popped off an 80% on Book7 exam2 PM…WooT! from what I have read…that is equal to a 100% on the real thing… haha jk

Dubs, you don’t want to write the exam on coffee/redbull, IMO. Works well if you’re writing a short exam, but with this thing, you’ll get super tired, brain fog, etc and it’s gonna be bad, but anyway you know best

damm, are they even comparable??? Book-6 is way off-target. From what I have heard from most of my friends who are L3’s now, that the pattern is the same as the “CFAI-Online Exams” mostly conceptual questions, you would hardly touch your calculator in the exam.

taking a practice exam at 3am in the morning is not a good idea…I tried that a few weeks ago and felt like i wasted 50 bucks. I got 65% on it, but I felt I could have done alot better because I was rushing through it thinking of bedtime…
