If i knew probably not, but why speculate? I just think there is a lot of wasted effort on some of these fourms speculating on what score might pass. I think going into this last week our best effort is going to be pulling together and really focusing on the material so we can all pass this thing, no matter what the required score ends up being.

If the pass was 50% and the CFA desigation was still regarded as highly as it is today, then yes…I would be studying day and night…because obviously it would be hard to get 50%. Dumb statement. I’m in a bad mood. I want to leave work.
Yeah stress levels are rising with one week to go. Given most of us are scoring 60-80% regularly on the practice exams there would not be the same level of concern out there if the pass mark was 50%. Period. My point is, people are trying to judge where they sit now vs. what the hurdle rate is. It gives some people comfort or confidence or encouragement or whatever to set in their mind that the minimum score is say 65% or 69% or 63%. Even if you’re scoring 55-60% then the goal doesn’t seem so far away. Either way, a firm goal to set sights on (whether it be 70%, 75% or 100%) is pretty important to achieving the result. At this late stage confidence/hope is key. No need to rain on their parade.
I’m only answering the first 84 questions and hoping I nail them all
