Passed! I was wondering whether I overestimated the difficulty of this exam. Please could you help me to understand?

Background Economics and work as Financial Stability analyst in EU institution.

I started studying at the end of February. Ethics from the CFA material and the rest from Schweser (didn’t study at all the GIPSs). I went through all the material only once and made EOC exercises of Schweser chapter by chapter + MOC exam and other questions on the CFA website. I was of course working and travelling once every 2 weekend (distance relation, this means that the weekend I was not travelling my girlfriend was coming to visit me).

My boss gave me an envelope of 10 days off (without consuming holidays, love her!! ) and I spent them at the end of may/beginning of june.

Completed the last argument (Alternative investment (my poorest)) 2 days before the exam. How is it possible that I passed? Could you help me to understand the results (below)? Is it a slight pass or a bit better?

Thanks a lot and congrats to all the next Level II candidates.
