Every time… For me, though, that’s the only way any of the concepts will stick. I retain about 20% of what I read, this is increased to about 60% by re-inforcement through questions. Unfortunately, 60% isn’t enough to pass the exam… Hence why I’m repeating Level II.
3/11 - Credit Derivatives. Starting FSA tomorrow- I’m going to do this …
Fixed Income - Readings 57,58,59, and 60. I admit it - this is my favorite part of the deal…no joke. My least favorite part? FSA.
3/12 - Read Schweser Book 0
Intercorporate Investments… not bad
03/09 - 03/10 - 03/11 - 03/12 = bedridden!! 03/13 - will start SS12 (R26 - Discounted Dividend Valuation)
Finally done with all PM stuff! 3 books down…starting Book 4 - Asset Valuation an Equity… hanging in there!!!
Finished up SS10 last night. SS11 starts today.
Finishing up Free Cash Flow Model in book 4
glendronach, Are you using any test bank software from Schweser or Stalla? I too am a returning level 2 candidate and am on the fence as to whether or not to buy one this year. Last year I used Stalla’s question bank and failed the exam miserably. This year, my game plan is to do all of the CFAI questions, Schweser end of chapter review questions, and the Schweser and CFAI online exams. Any thoughts?
Pension fund accounting… tonight. Damn I hate my Friday evening. Gonna get soooooooooo drunk tomorrow night you can’t believe it. I’m flying from Europe to Phoenix and back next week so I can study for quite a few hours in the air, think I’ll do practice q’s of all the subjects I have worked myself through so far - equity/fixed/econ/quant and hope I can remember some of it. A little retention test yesterday wasn’t very successful.
pension accounting here too…zzzzzzzzzzzzz…actually getting interesting at the end though…
03/13 FSA R29
