标题: Q: AM Answer Sheet Format [打印本页] 作者: Iginla2011 时间: 2013-4-28 06:40 标题: Q: AM Answer Sheet Format
I was answering the question orderly and paying attention to template provided to for answers. Then I noticed there were somemore line pages subsequent to the template. I was freaking out if I did answer in the correct manner.
Example.
A: Answer in line pages
B: Answer in line pages
C: answer in template
D: answer in line pages
My question is for answer D, do I have to answer in the line pages after the template? What I did was asnwering the question in order at the line pages subsequent after B.
Am I overthinking?作者: Matori 时间: 2013-4-28 06:40
I did the same. I would say you’re over thinking.
That’s why they ask you to label your answers A, B, C etc. It doesnt matter if you do it all on one page (assuming that page corresponds to the relevant question number) or spread across multiple line pages- which by the way, there seemed to be soooo many of. Who can possibly write that much??作者: stockjaguar 时间: 2013-4-28 06:40
I am freaking out too. I did EXACTLY the same thing and realised it about 10 mins from the end.作者: invic 时间: 2013-4-28 06:40
As long as you labeled, you’re fine.作者: Bluetick1010 时间: 2013-4-28 06:41
Same.
A guy at my work failed last year because of this stuff. It could definitely be made more straight forward.
Trying to remember and apply 1000s of pages of curriculum content is hard enough…….being peppered by the page format is certainly an unwanted distraction作者: amqata 时间: 2013-4-28 06:41

Those for the questions after the template, no?
this is what I’m afraid of–i missed a question on the back of the page (partially finished it at the end) and now I’m freaking out if I missed more. AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH . i don”t remember if there were many questions on the back of the pages? argh作者: JonnyKay 时间: 2013-4-28 06:42

I’m quite sure I didn’t miss any question. I checked all the questions twice.
That question is to be answered whole in template but there were lined page specifically for the question (with the question number).作者: towardsutopia21 时间: 2013-4-28 06:42
I think I forgot to mark the answer a few times. but wouldn’t it be obvious from the answer that i have finished eg c and that what beneath it, is the answer of d. I only discovered on one question that I didn’t mark it and marked it quickly but i didn’t had time to check the whole exam. maybe I forgot to mark the all the answer on all the question except for the template one which was marked for us already. I was in such a hurry due to time pressure that i just wrote the answer immediately and forgot to mark, soo stupid of me I know.作者: onelife1 时间: 2013-4-28 06:43
What if we missed a label, but it was right after every template in order? I doubt we would lose points for a missed label if it was in the right spot. I think I labelled everything, but I should have double checked I guess.作者: burning0spear 时间: 2013-4-28 06:43
I wrote out part c in question 1 and then flipped the page and said oh shit. Had to cross out the entire answer and copy it out in my template.作者: zbird2134 时间: 2013-4-28 06:44
^ same here..作者: thommo77 时间: 2013-4-28 06:44

I think everyone’s overreacting here. The graders are charterholders, I’m pretty sure they know to check all possible areas for answer responses. As long as it’s clearly labeled, you should be fine.
that is the problem. I forgot to label them.作者: Daniel1985 时间: 2013-4-28 06:45
In some cases I had C.i and C.ii on the same page, clearly labeled. In a different problem, I answered C.i on one page, and then the next page was the template for D, then on the back of the template page there was more lined paper, and that’s where I wrote C.ii. In both cases, I should have all my answers graded, right?作者: btcapital 时间: 2013-4-28 06:45
Sounds like it - from the response I received, it would appear that CFAI will actively look for answers on the papers submitted, regardless of whether the answer is written before or after the template. Seems like as long as you answered question 1 on the pages between question 1 and 2, you will be fine.
As for marking the answers that are not labelled, I didnt address that, so am not sure what their approach will be in that case.作者: leadcfa 时间: 2013-4-28 06:45
Did anyone notice the most left column in the line pages is for CFA Institute Only.
If you label your questions on that line pages, they will be ignored by the grader?
Where did you actually label your questions?
I did it this way

sherbeer: that is the problem. I forgot to label them.
Are they really that tough on the grading? No label = No credit? I doubt it as long as it is right after the question in clear order.
