Schweser Live Mock Exam

Anyone attends the Schweser Live Mock Exam today? I got 83.33% overall. Is the difficulty comparable with the real exam? I saw lots of people finished the exam and left so early, especially the morning session. Is it too easy or not? The afternoon session is hard for me and I finished about 20 min before the exam ends. But I saw some people left around 40 min before the exam ends. Is it too easy? Should I add a discount to my score?

i’ve got 93/120. The PM session, i got stuck with 2 derivatives calculation. PM is definitely harder than AM.

Is it comparable with the real exam? Or much easier?

If anything it’s probably harder. Average score is in the 50’s. If you got an 83 you should feel pretty good.

Take it from someone who is re-taking, it was really tough, and an excellent mock exam. I got 86/120. I think you’re on good footing if you did that well.

I believe that not all the people have submitted their results. The average will increase later. Half of the candidates left very early in my exam center. I do not think it is because it is too difficult.

It’s been out for a while. I took it last week, the average has only increased somewhat since then.

You took it last week? I am talking about the live exam. You have to go to the exam center in your city today, right?

The live Mock and the online mock are the same material, and the live mock timing depends on your CFA society.

They are the same??? Then what’s the point to take the live exam. I have to travel and paid a lot for it.

Yes I took it last week, live in person (NYC).

The point is it simulates the actual exam experience, vs taking it at home which obviously does not. That has more value to some people than others, hence some will leave early even if they’re not done and finish up at home.

I think it was shit

there are lots of stuff I haven’t opened yet and sitting somewhere

I mean like portfolio VaR with some derivatives and newly added stuff like that

none of those appeared

mock is not true to real exam. it cannot be

Hi all,

I am interested to purchase the online version of the Schweser Live Mock Exam.

In your opinion is it worth the $100? For those that took it in online format, what format was it? PDF? or within their portal?

Finally was it different in styling to the practice exam books (which are quite messy)?

Thanks,

Rex

Hi Guys. So exam 1 morning. Should Q 48 regarding FCFF from EBITDA not be ©

EBITDA(1-T) + d(t) - FCINV - WCINV

The answer says that depreciation expense should be taken out

was it harder than the real exam?

I did this exam and found it quite tough also, the PM paper especially was a massive step up. Scored 70 on am and 62 on pm.

It is comparable to the real exam in my opinion
