Hi All, I am running through the Schweser Q Bank, doing mini exams of 50 questions each to verify my knowledge of topics. I have done 500 questions so far (with no time constraints, but without taking too long either) and I am at 70% correct answers overall. Lately it looks like more and more specific questions are popping out, with no other way that memorizing bits and pieces of the book (classic questions on return distributions skewness and kurtosis, to mention the simplest). To keep it simple, it doesnt look like I am moving away from 70%. Do you have any useful suggestions on how get the best out of reviewing questions/how to memorize useful concepts? I would say that for every test, I have never ever heard 3% of questions topics.
I had a similar experience at L1. There is no easy shortcut to memorizing some of the more esoteric factoids. I found that simply doing the test bank questions over-and-over (not worrying about whether I repeated past rights and wrongs) helped with memorizing enough of the facts to get through rote-type questions on the actual exam.

I find Kaplan usually does a good job of putting all of the stuff that needs to be memorized there.
hi giorgio10, i have quicksheet, if youw ant i can send u… cheers
Hi Coquin22, Would it be possible for you to send me a copy of the quicksheet - swimlikemonkey@gmail.com Thanks,
I wouldn’t copy anything that is copyright-protected like the QuickSheet. Flies in the face of what is expected for a charterholder from an ethical standpoint.
