Anybody find these extraordinarily difficult? I got completely pummeled by them, way worse than mocks (even book 2 schweser which as i understand it is traditionally over the top hard)

didn't think they were that bad, I'm having much more trouble with the morning sessions at the moment

are you guys talking about the mini test versions? has anyone taken those?

Just took Sample 1 and scored 80%. I don't think it means much though... Such a small sample of data
作者: oneboy    时间: 2011-7-11 19:13

I finished Sample 1 with 23/30 or 77 %. I do not find it difficult but just the opposite - it is a medium. Regularly I do not catch more than 65 % on other tests (Schweser and CFAI) - it was the same for L1&L2. I'll make Sample 2 and write again.

I was confused with two things:
1. Q15 is explain correctly, answer (in figures) is correct but the letter is wrong. Am I right?
2. Can somebody explain me the rational behind Q14?

Haven't taken these yet, but will definitely get around to it within the next few weeks.

NO EXCUSES

Sample 2 - 21/30 - little bit more difficult than Sample 1.

"I'm having much more trouble with the morning sessions at the moment" - what kind of trouble kurupt1?

anyone who took the test last year know if they changed at all or are the same as last year's samples?
作者: liangfeng    时间: 2011-7-11 19:13

Scores on CFAI Sample exams don't mean a lot IMHO. I scored over 80% in all CFAI Samples last year and flunked the actual exam last year

Haven't tried 2011 mock yet.

To me this is a huge atrocity. They preach their book about ethical conduct and all that other bullsht, then they go on to disadvantage repeat candidates by giving them effectively less preparation tools than new candidates. Nice job CFAI.

inbead - those samples (this years 2011) was TOUGH for me, nowhere near 80... that has me worried that you did so well and still failed. I have done so much work preparing for this thing and I feel like it's all a crap shoot anyhow when I read stuff like this. Ugh.

mark CFAIL, you will not FAIL
作者: Unforseen    时间: 2011-7-11 19:13

Yeah that was not the greatest name to have...... everytime I see his messages I just see the word FAIL lol.
作者: former    时间: 2011-7-11 19:13

it's suppose to be CFAil - to make it more punny... but lower case doesnt work so i just stuck with being a failure.
作者: Windjammer    时间: 2011-7-11 19:13

It is completely ok to be super critical of CFAI according to CFAI
作者: mik82    时间: 2011-7-11 19:13

trying to catch up...run MC simulation as many paths as possible.

Posting my scores in the sequence I gave

Sample Exam 1 (2011)-50%
Sample Exam 2 (2011)-53.33%
Sample Exam 1 (2010)-50%
Sample Exam 2 (2010)-60%

CFAI Mock (2010)-80% (Just took this yesterday. Don't know whether this was blind luck or I have just improved)
