BEST PRACTICE QUESTIONS TO USE difficulty, effective, practice, previous

dotamasta

-Mock/sample exams from cfai are the most similar in difficulty and wording.
-Then EOC questions
-I found Schweser practice exams (vol. 1 and 2) a bit harder than the actual exam
-Then Qbank for more practice

Caveat: I passed (all >70% besides equities, 50-70%) in dec 08 by reading schweser notes (didn't even open cfai textbooks), secret sauce, and doing the free sample exam (CFAI) and one full practice exam (Schweser). But from what I hear mock exams and eoc questions are important.

Good luck!

Good Question

So far i have used shweser but they seem a little easy and i assume the actual question in the exam will be harder

At the moment i can t get the Qbank to work, any ideas?

I became very frustrated with EOC questions and didn't do many of them. Some asked for short answers. Others missed entire sections of the readings.

I relied heavily on Qbank while I was going through the material.

However, the most exam-like questions came from the CFAI mock and the Schweser practice exam book. Also consider ponying up $150 for the Boston Society mock. It's expensive, but very well written.
