How do people feel about the weighting this study session will see on the exam relative to Study Sessions 5 and 6 (the other FRA sessions). I feel like 6 is the most important by far; like 70%+ of the FRA questions will be from SS6 I think, feel free to disagree and let me know why tho.
How much time is reasonable to spend on SS7?作者: firat 时间: 2011-7-11 19:13
Do bet on what they will test...
when I took it and failed in 2009, there was 1 Full item set on Accruals Ratio which is covered by 1 page in the exam...
another example, you would think that they'd test cross rates w/ bid ask spreads or parity relations in economics....wrong... not one... it was all about economic growth...
Cover everything and don't spear details... there are no shortcuts on this one....
Trust me, they, in some cases will test the obscure hidden stuff

2009 and 2010 - current SS7 was a new introduction and very heavily tested on both tests.
As guille points out, know the details, and don't try to game the test.

be that as it may, I have a finite amount of study hours. Regardless of your opinions on "gaming" an exam, we are all apportioning our study hours among all the sections. Maybe it's 60 hours on Equity, 25 on Ethics, etc etc etc. I could probably spend 700+ hours on equity alone, knowing every single minute detail off by heart, but that would be at the expense of every other section.
I'm not asking for opinions on "gaming" the exam, I'm asking about relative time allocation. What makes sense for this section, relative to the others?作者: 5566 时间: 2011-7-11 19:13
