2013 CFA Institute Mock Exam (PM) Results

80%
I think that was the easiest out of all the mocks I took, but then against that is the last mock I have taken hence the most prepared.
Did the worst on performance attribution, fixed income, and global bonds… did best on ethics, GIPS, derivatives, RM.
 
72%. This is the only CFAI mock I’ve attempted, and I feel ok about it, though I don’t think it exploited my main weaknesses. Global bonds section kinda killed me. Just gotta keep plugging along.

I felt the same way, and scored the same. I need to tune up my Ethic’s and GIPS. Not sure, but most of the GIPS questions I have encountered revolved around a few topics. I hope this flows through to Saturday.
 
I found the mock quite difficult as well, scored 74% on the PM section… did the 2012 mock then yesterday where I felt much more confident and scored 85%…. anyone had the same experience?
 
65%. 22/24 in last 4 sets but bombed the previous sets big time.
I also thought some of the questions/answers were poorly worded but that’s not an excuse !
So far,
2012 CFAI mock - 78.3%
Sch Vol 2 Test 1 PM - 78.3%
2013 CFAI Mock - 65%
Gotta get back to high 70%s at any cost.

yes 2012 was very straight to the point question. and a very short exam imo. I got 85%.
2013 was harder, much more technical ( the question to adjust the volatility with the 2 beta of the regression was one that I am still impress with ) but manage to get 85% also because of high score in ethic ( which is so not always the case )
 
I thought the CFAI 2013 ethics mock questions were a breeze compared to 2012 ethics. my scores are fairly consistent across all mocks am and pm session. although I found the 2012 mock pm to be very easy, with the exception of ethics. besides my ethics mistakes I only got 3 other questions wrong in the pm…
I remember for L II finding the am/pm ethics of the mock very hard. on the actual exam it was a breeze and scored > 70%. seems to be hit or miss sometimes.
ethics are really my only areas of improvement right now. If I could buy an infinite supply of ethics pactice questions (at CFAI mock difficulty level) I’d pay a lot of $$$ for it………..
 
There will always be one or two ethics question that will stump you.
Either yiu wont know u messed up or you might struggle and get it and sometimes guess right ? U will def get 1 or 2 wrong
Fact of life.
