December exams harder than June exams?

I may be somewhat biased, but my experience was that December’s exam was much harder….Especially in FRA
 
I’ve heard the December exams are harder. From the CFAI’s perspective I wouldn’t be surprised if they had a benchmark pass rate they attempt to control year-over-year, based on June results. I would also take into account the time of year as a major distraction for some.
 
Based on my experience of the two test:
Difficulty of 10 being the highest
Dec 09
Morning 6
Afternoon 8-9
June 10
Morning 6-7
Afternoon 7-8
I guess it’s all even, at least in my opinion.
 
The general consensus is that the Dec exam is relatively harder esp the FRA section.
btw been a lurker for 3 months. Just registered and in finally. My L1 went well. Hope I pass :)
