Doing Horribly in Ethics..any tips? everyone, innocent, person, standard, question

brk1yn

Hello everyone,
I’m doing horribly (~50%) in Ethics and I’m not sure what’s going on!
There are just so many gray areas that could go one way or the other, and I also end up thinking the person in question violated a standard when he/she in fact was innocent.
Also, let’s say a person knows a standard is being violated… when do they CEASE to do their responsibilities vs RESIGN from their job? It seems like there are instances where u resign and instances where u cease until matter is resolved…
Lastly, does anyone have any tips for doing well on Ethics or a list of tricky areas that we should be aware of?
For example: (my latest screw ups)
1. Factual data from a recognized reporting service need not be cited.
2. Excluding portfolios with small balances from the composite performance presentation is not a violation of the standards
Thanks so much for your help!

Yohji,
Read the Ethics section again and practice using Qbank. Choose the option to grade after each question. This way you’ll be able to see why your choice was incorrect/correct.
Good Luck!

@ Yohji : I would request you to make a brief note (only some points on each of the Stds n sub points).. I m doing it and it is really helping me !!
Also remember that you need to know the significance of each of the Stds… thts it !!
Best of Luck

Make sure you check out the mock exam because I found the ethics questions on there pretty tough and I thought I had ethics down.
