for those who took the second sample from cfai

CFA Level II
#1

you know, the one where i thought there were errors? did you guys get charged the 40? I might be missing something, but i don’t think i got charged. and i never got an email from them telling me i got charged. i got one today for the third one i took.

#2

First FREE LUNCH in the investment industry?!!

#3

free punch in the face, actually. there were a couple of errors and it was very difficult, for a dummy like me, at least. i’m probably being a dummy thinking i got anything for free. i’m sure i put it on a different card or something. you’re right. there’s no free lunch.

#4

I will post my 56 on the free one in the next few days.

#5

Will those CFAI exam still be available if I take them in the month of June?

#6

mwvt, i’m guaranteeing you an above 70 score. i’m not kidding. the only that may hinder your score is the stupid format, especially if you’r doing it on a mini thinkpad, like me

#7

yes, they will. it says until june 7th… the third one, i think, is about the middle ground difficulty wise.

I appreciate the confidence, but I have been doing schweser vignettes and I am not doing well. I have had to cover the material so quickly and that isn’t how I normally learn. I don’t have a good conceptual grasp of the material yet and I don’t think I have time to get there before test day.

Thanks for confirming. I need to tighten things up and think of taking one by 1st June to get the judgement of where I stand.

#10

I think both you and dinesh are underestimating yourselves. we’ll see. i just have a feeling.

#11

Are these exams replicated from 2007 samples? If I still have screenshots from last year’s, should I pay again to get the new ones?

#12

Thanks cfasf1!! hope we all make it to L3. I am soooooooo tired of studying. I have really crossed all my endurance levels. I just want to get done with this thing. I know the burnout factor was going to kick in (in the last 2 weeks) with just 90 days of L2 preparation and 6 months of L1 preparation back-to-back. Oh well… best we could do now is to just give in our 100% rest all is on what they pick to be the topic of the day. There is such a wide syllabus, so many concepts, so little to ask and each question is weighted heavy, so a question here and there can me the PASS/FAIL differences, which was not at all the case when we have a 240 question exam and errors are less punishable.

Exactly. My guess (for me) is that after all of this hard work it will come down to luck/providence (depending on your worldview).
