Should be a fail, considering you only got one section (a small section at that) over 70%. I’d be extremely disturbed if it was a pass.

#5

I would say it looks like a fail to me.

#6

I would guess fail. Because mine looks like this and i failed: Multiple Choice Q# Topic Max Pts <=50% 51%-70% >70% - Alternative Assets 12 - * - - Derivatives 12 * - - - Economics 24 - - * - Equity Analysis 24 * - - - Ethical & Professional Stnds. 36 - - * - Financial Statement Analysis 68 - - * - Fixed Income Analysis 24 * - - - General Portfolio Management 12 * - - - Quantitative Analysis 28 * - -

I used the “rule” on these results and only if one gets the top marks (50%, 70% and 100%) of their group one stands a chance of passing. I came out of the exams knowing I had failed and even checked my results half an hour late, bc i knew what was going to happen…

#8

kant, looks like you are not from a math/engineering background…

#9

You don’t need any background to write CFA exam.

#10

The maxed out “rule” gives a result of 67%. what is the prob that I would have scored the max in the groups to pass?

You can check in this link your results in total %, using different rules. I find it really interesting http://www.cfasuccess.com/cs/calculator/default.aspx
