I guessed randomly.

I used the random option on the calculator, and then looked at the last digit and did a remainder division with 3.
example: calc showed up as 0.378 then took last digit “8” and did a remainder division with 3 to get “2” which for me means choose “B”.
remainder division: 8/3 = 2 and 2/3 so the fraction is the “remainder”

ever hear of something called an educated guess based on some sort of logic relating to the question itself rather than your little circus of thinking a blind guess is better than giving the question any sort of half assed analysis no matter how in the dark you are as to whats being asked??

TI, for some candidates, I’m sure what you’re describing is the approach to *all* the questions unless there was absolute certaintly via the CFAI texts!

When I was completely lost I just tried to eliminate the most obviously wrong answer to get it down to 50/50 at least. If there was an answer that was a simple sum or subtraction of numbers when you were supposed to do something else with them(think consolidations, etc) i pretty much knew it was incorrect and would guess from there.
I gave each question at least a couple of minutes, even if I was completely clueless. Acouple of times, just rereading the question for the 15th time I would remember some sliver of info enough to get the answer.
