I couldn't believe Corporate Finance. I know i aced it, but I was not expecting the kind of questions on corporate finance they threw at us. It caught me off guard, i'm just lucky I reviewed everything pretty well.
fra for me. fixed income was a joke it was so easy. so was derivatives.作者: JPSem 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
Yes I guess it just depends on the individual. Econ, ethics in particular were a joke for me.....I think it took me 14 minutes or something to get to mid quant section both times. I revised a couple times because I was afraid I was plowing through it to quick.作者: marsilni 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
1. Fix income
2. FRA
3. Dervatives作者: koba 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
I though PM econ was tough作者: ogoluwa 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
Fixed Income was a bear, def the hardest
I thought corporate finance, and equity valuations were jokes though, much easier than I thought they'd be.
Probably
1. FI
2. Econ
3. FRA作者: kd26gioi 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
PM Econ was by far my hardest section but it's my own fault - econ was my least studied area (just too boring for me). Also the first few AM ethics questions I found to be really tough. I even read the entire ethics section from CFAi materials the day prior to the exam and still found quite a few of the questions to be somewhat dicey.作者: studyn 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
PM econ was ridiculous. Quant was as well.作者: Londonrocks 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56

Hardest section by far to me.作者: sdada 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
pm econ was the toughest for me.. i had a lot of "go back and review" stars作者: Kiakaha 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
same here, econ both am and pm.
I hate econ!!!作者: dotamasta 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
I may have scored zero points on PM eco (and about 50% on AM). My brain went into complete failure on things I had just barely gotten down pat just a few days before.
My only hope here is that most people scored badly as well and somehow the scoring gets skewed...
It was ridiculous.作者: Siddimaula 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
The exam was so easy! I was so over-prepared... it was disappointing almost作者: Daniel1985 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
FRA and Econ. Just not my cup of tea.作者: kamara5 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
I dont remember what felt hard to me cause I actually managed to forget about the exam. Nevertheless, there were some ethics questions which felt confusing.作者: disiz64 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
agree with asif... specially the fairness one, where there were 2 violations not one and "institute holds members to highest ethics" re: Std VII thought was an exaggeration. May be not.作者: Ionutzakis 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
So did he violate? I said no.作者: shootingstar 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56

Others:
Derivatives

i think all the sections were easy. I think I scored 110%. 10% extra credit for looking so damn handsome.作者: jim8z3 时间: 2011-7-11 19:56
hardest to me were
1) Ethics (expecting score in 50-60 range)
2) FI
3) AI (didn't prepared it well)
Mugging up FRA , Econ and Corp Fin paid off , sure to cross 90% in each of them .
