I just took the CFAI Mock exam and only got 66%, compared to 75% on the sample exam. I’m carefully going through the Q&A documents to see where I went wrong. I recall having time to spare on the sample exam even though I had to rush through the mock exam. Maybe the sample exam was too easy, or maybe the mock exam is unusually hard.
I still need to do better in Ethics, where I only got to 67%. I need to take good notes on the questions that keep tripping me up. (There are certain questions that seem to keep popping up in QBank, the CFAI text, the Ethics selfexam, etc.)
I still need to do better in Quantitative, where I only got 50%. I’ve forgotten some of the time value of money operations, so I really need to brush up on those. And there’s still some stuff I didn’t learn that well.
I got 83% in Economics. I’ll have to go through the Secret Sauce and (if I have time) go through some of the CFAI book questions.
I only got 69% in FSA. I need to brush up on stuff and also get the hang of taxes and leases.
I only got 65% in Corporate Finance. I think I forgot some formulas.
I only got 17% in Derivatives. I really have a lot of work to do here.
There were so many formulas I’ve forgotten. I definitely need to review them and go through a few problems.

Well you know what you need to work on, so just stick to it and really push for the last two weeks. You’re in good position, just keep at it.

Ive done two mocks…got 77% on one (overall) and 73% on the other. On the Schweser Vol. 1 exams I usually get 80%+ so I found the mocks a tad harder as you can imagine.
BTW, nbyz, I saw your post in the “What would you do if you fail the exam” thread and we’re in exactly the same spot…what’s your MSN, I thought we may be able to help each other out employment wise..
