anyone freaking out? about, wonder, already, getting, start

slackeranalyst

we have about a month left until the exam, and i'm definitely getting nervous. I have reviewed all the Schweser books and done EOC questions so far, but i'm just about to start doing Qbank questions, but wonder if i'm too late already 4000+ questions, just a thought of it already kind of freaks me out, to be honest. (plus i work full time *sigh*)

just throwing it out there, those of you who have taken and passed the level 1 exam, were you guys able to finish all 4000+ questions prior to the exam?

Hate Econ! OMG! what are you saying, everybody loves econ.
I don't know why though. You are right it is boring. Econ is my least favorite of all the CFA subjects and also the the first thing that makes me freak out.

i see what your saying about econ....it seems weird that the material (in terms fo pages) is not direct related to the amoutn of tested material...i mean econ had its own book! for 24 question!

But yah panicking at this stage is the WORST thing you could do...but if you do score poorly on an exam, one thing to remember is that...you could simply may just be having a bad day...OR...that you were soo eager to find out your score and wherre you stand that you rushed through the exam (ive done this on my question sets too many times) and made careless errors!

Personally I don't like the econ section of this exam because I think it is too much to read for only 10% of the exam. It also frustrates me that practically the entire book is just memorization (and it frustrates me more that I haven't taken the time to memorize it!)

Does the fact that I am still pretty calm mean that I will have a panic attack soon. This place is scaring me.

Well, i have been finding it hard to retain all the content and the formulas. All the stuff that i did well a month and a half ago, i can hardly remember now. Not sure if this is something most candidated are experiencing.

Is it better to re-read the stuff again or just focus on Qbank if i have been through it once already?
