CFA Institute Self-Test - Your Score critical, taking, really, important

wonderfuldream

Have you taken the CFA Institute Self-Test? If yes, mind sharing your score? And is taking this self-test really important/critical? How close are the questions to the real test?

Ethics self-test is web-based. Mock is PDF

Thanks, NByz. I'll go download the Mock right now, in case the website goes "down" again.

Sorry, if I still had it up I would. Feel free to ask the ones you missed (unless it's the Gonzalez one), and I'll give you my explanation.

Guys, I haven't taken mine yet, would like to know more. Is the CFAI self test in PDF format? What about the CFAI Mock Exam? Is that in PDF? Or are neither one of them in PDF format? Thanks in advance.

I got that one and i said that she was misrepresenting her abilities.

Just got 66% in the morning of the mock exam. Pretty annoyed, made stupid mistakes. Ah well only 4% to go!

88% on ethics self-test

While it was good practice I think these were far easier than what we'll see on June 6th and not really representative of the question formats for the most part.

From my conversations and other samples the actual questions will invoke the standards themselves far more often than this did (which was never). e.g. So and so violated Standard I and Standard IV, IV but not I etc.

A lot of these were also poorly written it seemed.
