Using abbreviations for L3 AM

Not to save time but because I’m so used to it from my prep. Thoughts?

Answering my own question since I can’t delete posts lol. From CFAI website directly:

  • Common abbreviations and symbols are acceptable , but when in doubt, write it out.

Why you need to delete the post. I found it’s useful even I dont intend to use any abbreviation.

I’m sure using PV/FV instead of Present/Future Value is acceptable, but don’t come up with your own abbreviation like F&E for Foundations & Endowments or something else that might leave them wondering what the heck you are talking about.
