Prior exams going back beyond 2007 were available previously on CFAI website. I have gone as far back as 2005 but debating if I should go back further or the questions on older exams may not be relevant?
I personally think that reviewing/solving these exams and solving EOC questions is a much better use of time than Sch practice volume 2, maybe volume 1 as well.作者: oneboy 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
i went back to 2000. they actually are challenging.作者: NakedPuts00 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
Hi: can you send the copy from 2000 to 2006 to me at dechunw@gmail.com. Many thanks!作者: lcai 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
I agree, 2007 - 2009 is most relevant. In 2007, CFAI changed LIII curriculum by as much as 40%. Changes between 2007 - 09 have been at best minimal. Cumulatively, reviewing the 2006 exam implies referring to a curriculum that is almost 50% different from the current one.作者: mcmc 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
I plan on going back to 2006 - as in taking 2006 - 2009 as practise exams. I do plan on reviewing the exams from 2000 -2005 - possibly doing some of the IPS questions if time.作者: skycfa 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43

can you explain this statement? are you saying you think that the 2006 curriculum is 50% diff from the current one? if find this very hard to believe作者: jmh530 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
For the older exams, at the beginning of the answers, CFA mentions the pertinent LOS's and reference text refered to. If the reference text is not current for the 2010 BOK, skip that question. IPS will be relevant for sure, other sections might have.作者: Windjam 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
Went back to 1997 for IPS questions. Definitely worth it. You can tell how the style of questioning has changed over the years.
Now considering doing other questions for 2000-2006 time period. Looking at the beginning of the answers for the LOS, etc. is a good idea when deciding what to skip.

2007-2009 are most relevant for total exams. BUT FOR IPS RELATED QUESTIONS, it's all the same thing right ? so maybe go back to 200 for IPS related questions?作者: Analti_Calte 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
So do you guys think that although Schweser Volume 2 exams are based on the 2010 curriculam, the CFA 2007-2009 past exams are more relevant?
And CFAi text EOC or Schweser QBank?
So little time left not quite sure how to best spend my time!作者: Colum 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
Absolutely CFAI Text EOC hands down.
From what I hear on this board, there are lots of benefits of doing these EOC.作者: lcw77 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
Where can we download Qs and As to CFAI past papers for 2000-2005 please?
Who has them, and if you do can you provide us with your email so I can contact you directly for a compy PLEASE? Thanks!!!!!!!!作者: ll11 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
Just looked at 2002 CFA exam and the IPS questions were very different to the current way of asking. They used PV and a lot of changed cicrumstances etc.
Do you think they would ask in terms of PV or do you think this is their old way of doing things? know it's not a hard think to "get" but just quite a different approach to the questions so would need to spend some time reveiewing it all from that perspective.作者: Valores 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
I'm going back to 1987. I also have the 1963 CFA exam, but I don't think that's very relevant anymore.作者: Unforseen 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
I think that as far as IPS return and constraint questions you can go as far back as 2000 and it hasnt changed much.作者: PalacioHill 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
Sebrock - agreed.
Grgkir001 - Yes they can ask you PV type questions for IPS return calculations.作者: Windjammer 时间: 2011-7-11 19:43
