IMO. The timing is strong positevly correlated with knowledge and required skills needed to solve certain concept.
I am able to solve vignette within 5 minutes If i clearly understand required concept or still can spend over 25 minutes to vignettes with sigificiant lack of knowledge to solve the issue.
 
My goal is also to consistantly hit 5/6 across the board with topic tests and mocks. I think I am there with Corporate Finance already. Which is 5-15% of the exam.. Hopefully 15% :P
 
Just finished completely Schweser notes. This portfolio management topic’s also brought headache. I got the impression that authors of curriculum absolutely complicated everything wherever they could.

I feel your pain flash… I feel the same way about portfolio management!
 
Just reading PM summaries and making notes. Progress is happening but is very slow compared to last year and L1 studying. There are many concepts in L2 curriculum which require 5-6 times to go through and examine.
 
Have you noticed that in almost every topic on portal, the first vignette is the hardest one?
 
Are there any speedy methods to do the calculations. Even though I know the concept I take too much time to do the cal. Such as swap fixed rate..
 
They added more vignettes. Months ago I counted about 70, today there are 83. Also they deleted one from quants.
