wow...that must have been a big gamble作者: LPoulin133 时间: 2011-8-14 20:39
It's a total crap shoot. No amount of studying will prepare you. It ends up being a gut feeling. Somehow finished 70%+.作者: Roflnadal 时间: 2011-8-14 20:56

i read schweser and some notes. sometime in May, i kinda opened the CFAI text on ethics. did tons of questions, but i scored <50%! i didn't get a good understanding of the item set (in the exam), it was confusing and sthing i had never encountered in my practice questions.
but i passed anyway...作者: ayaz_mahmud369 时间: 2011-8-14 21:14
I didn't even touch it this year, not even glanced. +70作者: RepoToronto 时间: 2011-8-14 21:22
Was it just me or did the ethics portion of the CFA lvl2 exam not contain any/many of the newer topics not covered in Lvl 1 ethics?..it just felt like level 1 ethics in vignette form lol.作者: MiniMe7 时间: 2011-8-14 21:31
I studied CFAI.
Here is my reason for studying CFAI books for Ethics or any subject of level 2 for that matter.
CFAI is the one that sets the exam paper.
I should know and understand what CFAI wants me to learn and be good at.
Using third party material for subjects other than Ethics is understandable becuase you can learn some tricks to save time. But Ethics, I would rather go with CFAI books.
I scored >70% in Ethics studying from CFAI books.
