Hi Guys,

Just thought I would start a thread to see how people are going to go about the final month of prep time.

Hey guys,

I've completed CFAI reading, and also Schweser notes... Going through EOC questions on CFAI the second time around now...

I was a bit lost a few weeks back because I was scoring high on QBank even though I was 100% sure I didn't have a good grasp on the material. I couldn't have been more right! Since then, I gave up on QBank, and started to power through Schweser practice exams to get used to the exam format and questions... Been having a hard time scoring above mid 60's... Which really shows I don't understand a good chunk of the stuff!

I'm saving the CFAI mock exam for second week of May, and possibly considering picking up another provider for some more mocks. Any suggestions?

@ MK514

Pick up the Stalla exams, they are the same quality as the Schweser.

To the Q-Bank guy. Don't waste your time. That was problem last year. I spent a lot of time in the Q-Bank and thought I was going to kill it. Once I got to actual test format and quality questions it was on a different level. Don't waste time in the Q-Bank.

I feel similarly to tmorton. I used the Stalla Qbank, and it had some gaps for sure. I blame that only partially for my failure tho; mostly didn't memorize formulas well enough, also sleep deprivation didn't help.

I think doing the EOCs to the point where you can do every one of them in the entire curriculum on the drop of a dime, and then doing a bunch of mock exams to polish... that's probably the best. then when you're done that, pick EOCs at random, and see if you're really as confident with them as you think. If yes, you're probably ready, but just to be sure, find some questions out there on the internets, and do them too.

ps internets was an intentional bushism

oh, and scribble out the formulas again and again and again and again...

So,

Like Magicskyfairy, I am a rewriter. I used Schweser mainly first time around.

I read CFAI this time around, and wrote out my own notes all the way through.

All I have left to complete (readings and notes) is Portfolio Management, which will likely take me until the end of next week (I spent 1 day per week reviewing since I started).

So, with my last month, I am going to take the first three weeks to hardcore review my notes. I study 3 hours every night after work except Fridays, and I put in 5 hours both days on the weekend (of actual work while locked in my room). I'll mix in EOCs.

Have the last two weeks off work so i am going to basically go through a mock exam every other day with a full day of review of my notes and EOCs between.
