Prior Exams - How far back to review?

Prior exams going back beyond 2007 were available previously on CFAI website. I have gone as far back as 2005 but debating if I should go back further or the questions on older exams may not be relevant?

I personally think that reviewing/solving these exams and solving EOC questions is a much better use of time than Sch practice volume 2, maybe volume 1 as well.

i went back to 2000. they actually are challenging.

Hi: can you send the copy from 2000 to 2006 to me at dechunw@gmail.com. Many thanks!

I agree, 2007 - 2009 is most relevant. In 2007, CFAI changed LIII curriculum by as much as 40%. Changes between 2007 - 09 have been at best minimal. Cumulatively, reviewing the 2006 exam implies referring to a curriculum that is almost 50% different from the current one.

I plan on going back to 2006 - as in taking 2006 - 2009 as practise exams. I do plan on reviewing the exams from 2000 -2005 - possibly doing some of the IPS questions if time.

For the older exams, at the beginning of the answers, CFA mentions the pertinent LOS's and reference text refered to. If the reference text is not current for the 2010 BOK, skip that question. IPS will be relevant for sure, other sections might have.

Went back to 1997 for IPS questions. Definitely worth it. You can tell how the style of questioning has changed over the years.

Now considering doing other questions for 2000-2006 time period. Looking at the beginning of the answers for the LOS, etc. is a good idea when deciding what to skip.

2007-2009 are most relevant for total exams. BUT FOR IPS RELATED QUESTIONS, it's all the same thing right ? so maybe go back to 200 for IPS related questions?

So do you guys think that although Schweser Volume 2 exams are based on the 2010 curriculam, the CFA 2007-2009 past exams are more relevant?

And CFAi text EOC or Schweser QBank?

So little time left not quite sure how to best spend my time!
