Question re: Exam Discussion

This is how I prepare notes for myself for example - Here was when I became 21 years old :slight_smile: https://fileshare.aus.edu/pnp7/files/lKBrIocBw/Economics.docx

It looks like you summarize the readings in your own words, you find that to be the best retention and subsequent review method? Think I will pick up a keyboard for my iPad and do it like this for L2, my method is more chaotic. Bah, just realized I read the books on the iPad, will need to buy another!

Yup - it really helped in my review … was able to finish reviewing each book on one day because I wrote them myself so it takes much less to review them Here is for ethics: https://fileshare.aus.edu/pnp7/files/WbFytnnxi/Ethics_FinalVersion.docx I’m attaching this cuz u will need it again in level 2 - hope it helps :slight_smile:

These are really good, I wouldn’t complain if you attach them all just for future reference :wink:

For other books I have the same style of notes but handwritten - much better handwriting than that file and no diagrams :slight_smile: I was planning to scan them next week when I’m done with GMAT to give them to my friend who is taking the exam in June - wouldn’t mind uploading them for the rest :slight_smile:

Yeah please let me know when u do it

sure

the problem for me about writing notes are… i spent soo much time to prepare all these study notes… yet, i left myself no time to go back and study them… there are similar qs like the CFAI mock yet, i reckon the questions but blanked out on how to solve them… i guess, this is very common for ppl like me, ran through university exams by cramming ending up with like a B- average… this is my 2nd time doing this exam and this time i felt like actually learned the the material but my ineffective study methods just keep hunting me big time… poor test preparation…by doing this, i truly learning how to study in a hard way ha… if i fail again, i might try again once i have more maturity and discipline…

oops… my comment on the level exam is… - left enough time to do the mocks and review them, this will help in nailing all the calculation problems - glance through the CFAI book/glossary so at least you will end up getting some of those random definition questions - memorize the formulas then should be fine… but i always over estimated my ability to finish all the above items… ended up being beaten…

Lol your notes on covered call are funny Omar. I like them! :smiley:
