Annoyed started, morning, another, solutions

cfa10yrplan

What annoyed the hell out of me was the amount of time it took me to get going in the morning session. Like I think at about 10 is when my brain clicked into gear, and started thinking. The first hour I just couldn't concentrate. Any solutions for another time or another exam?

Did you warm up before the test by reviewing anything?

Choke the chicken before going to the exam. It helps to calm the nerves.

I just pumped myself up to Crazy Train, Eye of the Tiger, etc on my way to the exam. By the time the exam started I was ready to tackle someone.

i jump to the first question I think I can answer, and force myself to move on if I think it's going to be trouble. You have to get in the zone, it's just three hours, maybe yoga can help, I felt that it helped me focus.

I took time to get going also which made me miss one whole item set in the morning session. It was the wealth management question and I knew the answer. I said to myself that I will come back to it later because I was taking to long to set the answer up and then time was called. That cost me a lot of marks and may push me under.

I listen to Biggie before game time, but to each his own.

I didn't even look up from the paper in the first hour.

+1, tested and true.

Creighton's 4 day review included every (relevant) AM session since about 2000. Went through them all and had absolutely no problem on the morning session. Through all three exams, working problems was the key for me. You can read the books or watch a lecture all you want, but you'll never be able to replicate the info without practicing problems during study.
