Since you're a yield curve analysis expert, here's what I think. I think you're a zero coupon bond maturing on June 5th You're golden man.作者: IAmNeil 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35 标题: Peaking to Early?
Hi
Ok here's the problem. I started studying in August 09 straight after I got my level one results (above 70 in all sections by the way). I started from the CFA texts and went through every page in detail writing notes and doing every EOC problem ensuring I had mastered every detail. By Jan 2010 I had finished with over 500 pages of notes. Since then I moved on to Schweser and did almost the same process rewriting my notes and doing all the EOC problems. I managed to get my notes down to 240 pages and completed them at the beginning of April. Since then I've all the practice exams I can get my hands on and have been averaging 94% including all of Schwesers question bank. I estimate I have done around 1100 hours study. I also have a PhD in yeild curve analysis.
So my question is with a month to the exam have I peaked too early?作者: madaochenggong 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
Please try to keep your score reasonable come exam day. We don't want the top 1% to be near perfect.作者: wxs1986 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35

The top 1% rule to determine the MPS has been abandoned.作者: smuggycfa 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
i sense the first ever 100% on the CFA exam. Dude, you are way behind the curve. Most people here have logged over 2000 hours so you have some catching up to do...get to work and stop being lazy!作者: chandsingh 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
PhD in Yeild Curve analysis? Brilliant place for a typo...
You're peaking early, but I'm sure you'll be fine. Continue reviewing for the next month and don't let up, and you'll be fine. Even if you get the totally unacceptable score of 91, you'll still pass.作者: bbtomato 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
+1.
starter of this thread might be one of them. A PhD in Yield Curve Analysis and the score below just do not add up... esp, scores in Fixed Income and Derivatives. The search function rocks.

Is this a joke to make fun of all the people that come on here and are like im averaging 71.1% on schweser and 72.3% on EOC..How am i going to do? Am I ok? Please hold my hand and tell me its going to be alright..
Those posts should be banned.
On the other hand if your just bragging about how you have done more work then any other CFA candidate in history- congratulatons on already passing (and having no life).作者: sameeragarwal 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
there should be a new thread now ban this sucker...any one agree??作者: tikfed 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35

Yes, you have and you might be suffering from premature ejaculation problem, mate!!作者: eoin 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
This thread is going nasty now, lol作者: troymo 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
haha well caught.
Bob - What are your practice test scores?作者: bingbingliang 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
Bob is definitely not the only one. There are other much more subtle posts out there. I say next time we catch someone trying to be cute we go up in arms and call them out- Greece style (figuratively speaking of course).作者: President1988 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35

Now that was a perfect shot! Target was killed in one go.作者: mp3bu 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
Ok ok you got me. More like just over 200 hours, 150 pages of notes, No PhD and I havent even sat a practice exam.
Just having a laugh really.....
Good luck everyone. One more month until we get our lives back!作者: Otabek 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
its the less than 50% on 2 areas - that will kill you - gotta at least get 51% on each vignette...作者: Rasec 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
Bob Fishcakes, you gonna get back at deez foolz maaaaan?????????????作者: xilinx_altera 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
Can you get a PhD in yield curve analysis? I am pretty sure someone wrote this as a joke or has a very low quality earnings.作者: FinancialAnaly 时间: 2011-7-11 19:35
Well I was suspicious after the word 'yeild', but I didn't really think about it too much. Good show sir!
There probably are people out there that are scoring like this. They're called virgins.
You're golden man.
