What’s the sentiment here on using Q-Bank for L3? I used it for L1 but ditched it for L2. Seems like it could be useful in some areas. Anyone find it helpful for L3? Thoughts appreciated

just repeat the blueboxes…
I’ve found that blue boxes have been helpful to enhance readings for L1 and L2 but haven’t been useful for exam prep purposes IMO
i felt the reason why I passed L2 was repeating FRA and pensions blueboxes.

I think QBank’s usefulness decreases at each level.
I used it extensively for level 1, somewhat for level 2, and not at all for level 3.
At the risk of stating the obvious, everyone is different. I love doing the Qbank. It is debatable whether it actually improves your exam prep, and I have never written level 3 exam, so I will not be able to add meaningfully to that conversation. Also what works at Levels 1 and 2 is not going to get you to pass level 3. “Level 3 is different.” Then there are those that say that there is an optimum way to approach this, and anything else would be a waste of time. Potentially everyone is right about what works for them. It is behavioral afterall.
Schweser Qbank helps me get started, and because of it my productivity and motivation is so much better. So indirectly I think that it will help me pass. In addition it teaches me a few concepts and helps me cross train.
It is not for everyone, and overall it might be a weak study tool, but it really does work for me, and perhaps you too da_mad_tiki.
