Studied LII only 2 weeks before the exam!!! actually, always, genius, before, exactly

ashycal

That's exactly what I did and actually knew +70% of the exam. Studying was very intense but that's my style and always ace exams. I'm not a genius but like a mutant of sorts, learn very quickly and retain alot of information under intense pressure. By the way, it was my first attempt and passed L1 in Dec 2010. However, in my dreams I'm in Band 6! It will be a miracle if I pass...a black swan event!!! I'll keep you posted!!!

You are good when you know what you know, and know what you dont know.

It's dangerous when you don't know what you don't know.

yeah, i had a buddy who didn't study at all and he's just such a bright guy that the CFA institute let him write all 3 exams concurrently. He was training for this mountain climbing expedition up everest. Didn't really leave much study time since the climb was literally like 5 days before the exam. Then of course he had to celebrate by going on a huge coke/booze bender, which lasted until about the exam. He showed up like 2 seconds before the doors closed and managed to take his seat. He said it went awesome, except for the fact that he kept having to go to the bathroom to throw up (still wasted from all the boozin). It mostly overlapped with the stuff he learned in his MBA at Yale, so he was fine. Real good guy, he's nailing Jessica Simpson and Scarlett Johansen at the moment, but sooner or later i think he's gonna have to pick one... good guy, you'd like him i think. He's a derivatives portfolio manager at GS.
