cfalover, i did not do pract exams… just went thru few questions from past cfa AM exams and did the EOC as and when i read the chapters. didnt study much either… started in march… 2 months of avg 10 hrs a week and then may i did avg 7-8 hrs a day. just did enough to cover the topics once and a quick revision only of my notes.
Wow AMG0- well with a band 10, you did great! I would have been lucky to get a band 2 if I started in March. Mutton- to answer your question- 2005.
