It's okay. Girls with knowledge have inner beauty that don't fade away.

when i was in for in level 1, i thought i was going towards the noblest designation and was proud of myself.
after studying for level 2, and taking the exam, i kinda think it's a fraud again in the financial industry. not that i m @#$%&, look at the stupid exams, how ON EARTH are they related to investment professionals? random bits here and there, and testing if you have gone thru the textbooks from cover to cover!

I studied like hell for 6 months.

Wake Up> Work> Study> Sleep

The occasional minute of freedom I have, I whinge.

My skin is so dry (too much cafeine), feels like a crocodile. Lost 2 kgs but not a good thing Muscle turned into fat. No gym = flabby arms.

And what do I get in return??? I feel dumb and ugly. =(

The worse feeling of all...is that I have to do it all again for the same level shortly. All my weaknesses was packaged into a 6 hour exam. It was customised to put me out for sure!

CFA god, what did I do wrong? I am so sorry. I now know I should not have used Schweser. Please forgive me and let me pass?

i slept at 12 pm and got up at 4 am the day before. it was brutal. the AM section went decently. i was so damn tired on the PM section. i couldnt read the passages too. however i told myself that these are 6 months of effort and just do it. SO i just did not give up and kept doing the problems. also i had about 20 minutes to spare which i utilized to get 2 answers right. i always keep telling myself this "Winners never quit, quitters never win". helps me

My best friend used schweser last year and passed. Although he wasn't confident when leaving the exam. This is a guy who is really good at studying and taking tests.

It's very odd though, all the people I personally know who passed L2 all described leaving the L2 exam as "wtf just happened" and "damn, I don't think I passed"...

that's scary

This could happen to the best of us. I must have prepared like crazy but made two fatal mistakes:
1) Took a nanny on June 4th. What that meant is, I didnt get to sleep until 12.30 am on 5th june, and woke up at 6 am. That in itself was the worst mistake one could make.

2) During lunch break, I loaded up on a Chipotle bowl with loads of black beans. By 3 PM, I was seriously thinking about taking a half hour nap. Unfortunately, I neither had an alarm to wake me up, nor thought I could afford to. Somehow I managed to complete the exam 30 mins ahead of time but I am pretty sure with so little sleep and oversized lunch, I must have made so many silly mistakes.

Anyone thinks, I might still have a chance at passing? Last years experience was much more pleasant. I was very well rested!

I got enough sleep, but felt the same way. Got >70 on the mock. (80 AM, 68 PM), but got destroyed by the actual exam.

Lesson to us both Bluerose, we need to study harder for Level II next time. It is certainly no Level I.

What was the average score on the mocks? How much do you expect in the actual exam? My guess is, fi you got > 70 in the mock, then the MPS is going be set at < what you are going to get. So you'll pass regardless.

Schweser:
1AM 70
1PM 73
2AM 65
2PM 70
3AM 63
3PM 66

MockAM 80
MockPM 68

I never felt comfortable though - in all these tests I totally guessed on at least 20% of all questions and moderately guessed on another 40%. Felt awful after the actual exam. Very depressed, but beginning to accept failure for the first time.
