A second opinion, please.
I am a level 3 retaker.
The first time I took level 3 I would have been more than surprised if I'd have passed it. I didn't study enough, I just watched the Schweser videos, I didn't do any EOC exercises. I didn't read the CFAI books. I failed band 8.
Even though I was more prepared this time, I don't know if I will pass it. I feel my chances are 50/50. I will accept my fate without fear.
But my thoughts after the exam are these: I was in my personal peak in terms of curriculum knowledge on June 4th, in June 3rd I wished I had two or three more weeks to do mock exams or practice exams. What if I failed the exam? Wouldn't it be smart not to loose the knowledge and practice I already gained, the exam experience is fresh, I remember some of the questions, I could try to master some stuff in which I felt weak. What if I passed it? learning more will not hurt me, and the end of the day and without being servile to CFAI, isn't this stuff about learning?
So I took my CFAI books the other day and read them without pressure, without exam dates and with a relaxed attitude, I remembered why I chose to study finance and remembered that I am really passionate about my job and about the choice of doing the CFA stuff.
So, I've thinking: Until august I will know the truth. But, meanwhile, reviewing the material will not hurt me, I will not dedicate my precious weekends to it, I will do it while commuting or waiting for the dentist... I think: Now I can really learn this stuff without feeling stressed and that feeling makes everything easier and more enjoyable my readings.
I would like to know your thoughts about this attitude towards re-reading the material before August.
Thanks. |
