Exam day tips

CFA Level I
#1

  1. Where to do the rough calculations on the exam. because the guidelines says we are not allowed to scribble in the question paper as well as the hall ticket, should we carry any additional sheets with us?

  2. Will they provide Z- table and T- Table @ examination hall or is there way to look up Z n t values in TA calculator?

  3. Is there any quick way of changing batteries for TA calculators?

I know these questions sounds silly, but couldnt help from asking it out:)…people who have taken the exam please reply… would be much appreciated.

  1. I don’t think you will get any extra sheets. There is however space on the question sheet for plenty of notes.

  2. No, but you will need to know the z score for 90%, 95% and 99%.

  3. I would suggest you either change the batteries the day before the exam or borrow a second one for the exam.

All good questions by the way.
