CFAI 11 mock: 60% Schweser 1 AM: 69% Schweser 1 PM: 68% Schweser 2 AM: 58% Schweser 2 PM: 80% Schweser 3 AM: 64% Schweser 3 PM: 77% Schweser 4 AM: Not done yet Schweser 4 PM: 68% Hard to score the cfai, but would say high 60/low 70’s for 08,09 and 60% for 10.
Yeah. Sometimes they have 4 point answers with one sentence LOL… I hope that’s how they grade the real thing!
Just curious but when you guys write, are you writing a lot in the explainations or just a few words like Schweser seems to be guiding to? Seems a bit wrong to write that little…
Damnit, 70% on the CFAI 2011 Mock… I was on a nice streak and this brought my confidence back down. Can’t afford to get a 70% in the PM when the AM is really tough…
Yeah, I took that today. That was just a HARD test. I feel like that was a lot more quantitative.

CFAI 2008 PM 67% Completely stumped on the last one and ran out of time, but other than that pretty fair. Trying to remind myself that this is higher than I have scored prior to any CFA exam and not psych myself out. I’m off to go do my Stuart Smalley thing in the mirror and get back to work.
I got 120% after my self imposed bellcurve on the 2012 mock. Don’t get psyched by what people are posting here, especially on the AM sections…
big ML - You mean CFAI 2008 AM?? Right? I don’t think the PMs are available. I agree, I found CFAI 2008 AM to be the most time consuming. I ran out of time and couldnt finish the last question.
So far… CFAI 06: >70 CFAI 07: >70 CFAI 08: skipping due to being used as material on training course CFAI 09: skipping due to being used as material on training course CFAI 10: 71% I marked the 06/07 and felt pretty happy vs model answers. Not worked out accurate mark but think that they came in above 70. 2010 was independently marked by a training company. Schweser 1 AM: Schweser 1 PM: 78% Schweser 2 AM: Schweser 2 PM: 87% Schweser 3 AM: Schweser 3 PM: CFAI 11 mock: 62% (it destroyed me)
CFAI Mock 2011 (am losing my confidence now) - 62% CFAI Sample 1 - 73% CFAI Sample 2 - 76% Schweser Mock Exam AM - 61% PM - 75% Schweser Volume 2 - Exam 2 AM - 65% PM - 75% Schweser Volume 2 - Exam 3 AM - 65% PM - 77%
looks like the consensus is that the 2011 CFAI mock is tough compared to other materials that are available: 2011 CFAI mock: 67 2010 old exam AM: 67 (though to know what would or wouldn’t have gotten marks but I was pretty tough on myself) 2009 old exam AM: 64 (same as above) didn’t try any of the schweser mocks
Just done CFAI 11 mock 78%. Would have preferred 80% to compensate for morning but you take what you can get! Damn ethics and GIPS as usual.
govindmika, meant AM.
Schweser Vol.2 practice exam 1 (AM) is a JOKE. Poorly written and too much writing. So much not like the real thing. I’m done with practice tests because of this joke of a book. Read and review from now until tomorrow.
CFA 2011 Mock: 67%, Wtf
Total for all PM Exams (in order) Practice Test 1 PM: 65% Practice Test 2 PM: 73% Practice Test 3 PM: 70% Practice Test 4 PM: 72% Practice Test 5 PM: 70% Practice Test 6 PM: 73% CFA 2010 Mock - 78%. (50% on Ethics, 85% on everything else) CFA Sample Exam 1 - 70% CFA Sample Exam 2 - 83% CFA 2011 Mock - 67%, wtf.
I was just going over the BSAS exam. Kind of sloppy. Repeated answers that are identical (but one is right and the other wrong), and the last two afternoon questions were really written poorly… You just kind of get the thought that they were thinking “crap - 2 more item sets - slap some shit together and lets see if we can post this tonight and start making some money for our social events”. Prize for worst ever though, goes to the level III Stalla exam book, and it’s outright plagiarism of the CFAI textbook question on PWM. So glad I paid for the same material I already got as part of my registration.
