Is anyone else finding level 3 much smoother to understand than level 2? In terms of both volume and complexity of content.
I heard this was the case but perhaps I’m missing something. I think much of the test will come in the constructed response questions.
I’ve covered the first 11-12 readings and am feeling slightly less motivated than usual.

the problem is not the material.. the difficulty is in the exam and time management of AM.. look at the 2016 AM portion and you will notice that nearly every question asks you to apply the concepts and formulas in new ways compared to the examples in the book. basically even if the exam were open book, you would still struggle in 3 hours

I felt the same way last year but still put in over 400 hours including a ton of mocks and past AM sections…. Failed….. As Danv0330 said, the difficulty come from the exam itself and the need to not only answer half the exam as open ended constructed response format, but also know how to interpret the questions and data you are given in the correct way. All while being under a significant time constraint with very little time to think. This Level is very different from the first 2.
Trust me, don’t get comfortable. Study even more for this exam than you did for level 2. The competition is stiff, and only about half of us will pass.
