7:01 AM the fun begins!
Glad to join y’all. 7:10 on the left coast. I am in my cave at the office. I will emerge once in a while to check on you.
Man I feel like a slacker. I didn’t get into it until 8:30.
I’m a slacker too. I started around 8:30. Plan to be at the office until late night. I’m a bit concerned as I missed a CAPM question this morning…oops.
hi guys… i m scoring 46% on exam 2 am… i feel like i m scrweed
i finished test 3AM from schweser book 6 about 15 min ago- got a 70%. thoughts- this was a great test b/c it tested a lot of those oh sh&t i forgot those smaller areas stuff. i might take an hour to chill, step outside with the snoop d-o double g, and then review. i was going to do the PM portion today but i feel like this test made me realize a lot of areas i need to review- might do the PM portion tomorrow and tighten up today. it had a hard real estate vignette (guessed on a bunch), econ on the diff growth theories (apparently i don’t know them very well), 2 corp fi vignettes (the silent killer- seems easy but my scores sook), etc. thank god for FSA for the last 18 questions (went 17/18), otherwise this test would’ve been an utter disaster for me. i hope the PM test 3 is similar in weird topics. i need to remember how much i have forgotten, if that makes any sense. ok, breaktime- 3 hrs done so far today, more to come.
7:30 am on the west coast…it all starts now.
i slept in. f**k. oh well, it’s 10:42 on the east coast, and day three of my marathon begins now.
Glad to see we’re all making progress. I’ve been at it since around 6:30, time for a quick workout…then I’m heading to the office to study for a change of scenery. Walking back to my apartment from starbucks just now in such nice weather was sort of a downer…but after June 7th we still have practically three months of summer…lets do this. goodluck all

I had to handle the kids while mom got ready to go to a baby shower. The rest of the day is devoted to CFA though. 
3.5 hrs in, just did a read through of FSA, I’ll be doing FSA q’s for the rest of the mornings. Started the morning with Timmy’s, will be upgrading to Sbux at lunch. Aiming for 10 hours both today and tomorrow. Hopefully I can fit in a session at the gym, I’m feeling like a lazy ass. I’ll be slugging it out in my apt for the weekend. FSA on the dining room table, Fixed Income in the office, Ethics on the balcony, it looks like a schweser bomb went off.
i’ve been surfing net, including this site for at least an hour… but about to head to the sbux with the study area (inside a chapter’s for those who know what that is) i’ve been alternating getting deep into tough areas, backtracking on areas i may have glossed over (that national income vignette has really thrown me for loop) and then just going thru schweser reading summaries very quickly (want to see the same thing 10X)
good job bannis. i’ll probably take the same test today.
I just started tooo guys… Let’s BANG it on! ETHICS is the biyatch of the day tonite!
Dude - you lucky ba$tard, starting your day with Timmy Ho’s. I WISH I was abck in Canada during this time so I could use their coffee for support and not rely on this shite down here. Just woke up after 9.5hrs of sleep…holy hell. Feel great and def needed that. It’s 10:45 here in CHI and I’m about to get involved with my first practice exam from book 7. Here comes AT LEAST 12 hours, baby! I’ll be in touch. Let’s f*ck some serious shit up today, team!!!
whooooa … am really late… did a book 7 3am last nite - got 61%. freaked me out… I keep telling myself to not worry about the scores and look at the exam just as a learning experience and nothing more- but it does not seem to work… will do lotsof FI today…
Let’s do this motherF#@#er. It is time to turn up the intensity, we can rest on June 8th.
Looks like quite the roll call. Just did a Schweser study session q bank “exam” on FSA synthesis. A lot of bs questions, (“excluding the LIFO adjusment…” then the answer explained how the LIFO adjustment made it answer 'C".) but I learned a lot, which is the point, right?
ok punch the clock back in- outside is nice, wish i could be there longer but i can’t. 4.5 hrs so far this weekend, time to review test 3AM. ruckmani- don’t freak on that score- i think this 3AM was a bunch harder than either of the 2AM/PM book 6 tests personally- just a bit more obscure stuff, but not so obscure that i don’t think any would be fair game on test day (sadly). dinesh- ethics will do later tonight more- it’s a good coast out of the evening subject for me. goes to 11- we should at some point throw up a synthesis thread on all of the adjustments so we have a good list- like capitalize an op lease you up CA and CL, etc… there are a few weird ones that i haven’t done enough with- should have these cold by exam day hopefully!
Sure thingy Banni!! - Ethics Party tonight 3.00 AM EST, is that ok for you?
