I have to say that for the first time since starting the program last weeks test was the first time I didn’t recall seeing at least one question that I felt was ambiguous enough to feel compelled to drop a comment to CFAI, was just curious if anyone else felt the same way.作者: jcole21 时间: 2013-8-9 09:44

if you took the N.America AM I felt there was at least one that was pretty werid.
In our PM I didn’t think there were really any though.作者: random_walker47 时间: 2013-8-9 09:44
It isn’t that none were ambiguous but there were a few obscure, non core items which don’t make the person passing a better analyst. But I guess if we were to design a test for that it would not be this.作者: MiniMe7 时间: 2013-8-9 09:44
Only one small information in the AM作者: smuggycfa 时间: 2013-8-9 09:44
I think this year had the least amount of ambiguity or people really going ‘wtf’ was that in more recent years (at least post-AIMR days). Most other years, AM, during lunch, you had people just exhausted and confused talking to each other about it.
Also, after every exam in previous years, you had people scrambing to this board debating questions. While of course now they’ve done a much better job at staying quiet, that urge to talk about ambiguous questions is alot less thisyear than previous years.
I do know that CFAI were taking feedback last year after the exam, which I hadn’t heard about in previous years, so they might have taken some of it into account. (a co-worker of fine did a survey and explictly expressed her opinion on the ambiguity of questions asked on the test vs what is laid out in the cirriculum/LOS)作者: joehogue 时间: 2013-8-9 09:45
my boy took the BSAS exam and he said it was game over because of it.
