No, what I am saying is that you should read the chapter and review your comprehensive at the end with EOC's. Assuming a good score, you can move on comfortable in the fact that your have comprehended it. Despite this, I found 2 to 3 months later (once you have completed the whole syllabus) that I had trouble even spelling Quantitative Methods let alone knowing how to apply them.
In light of this, I found that giving myself another test of the questions a month later (without reading the text) showed where I had actually internalised the information as opposed to being just able to regurgitate it 30 mins after having read it. This is the suggestion I provided.
On the other side of this second test of the EOC's (or even better questions you have never seen before), you will either get a good score which signals that you will probably be able to apply in the exam or a poor score in which it is quite clear that your actual comprehension is not what you first thought it was.
A further point I would make is that the material in Level II is not IMO considerably harder to understand, but the structure of questions in the vignette format are harder to answer as the testers at the CFA will combine multiple areas of the topic (along with MC options that are based on common mistakes) that will test whether you are having a guess, know something alright or really understand it. Unfortunately, it is only the last option (or a successful guess) that will get you through. This is one major difference to Level I where if you know something alright you will probably be able to get the answer. |
