EOC CFAI Question Structure 2013, question, schedule, already

Otabek

Hi All,
First post here.
I am signed up for the LEvel 1 exam for Dec 2013, so giving myself plenty of time to study.
At the moment my plan of attack is to read over all the notes reasonably quickly, just to get an idea of what i already know, and what areas i need to brush up on, doing a few questions along the way. Then i will go into the full 18 week recommended schedule when that comes up (still about 3 - 4 months away).
My question is; are the EOC questions reflective of what we would get in the exam? A lot of them are quite detailed and require a lot of calculation (quant especially) and are not multiple choice. I know we should understand the process, but will they really give us a table of data and ask us to calculate the kurtosis, variance, semideviation etc?

I have also chosen the strategy to first get an overview of all subjects and then prepare accordingly to the dec 2013 exam.
OP, which third-party supplier have you chosen and why?
