Does L3 AM Have a Seperate Answer Book?

[mectron6]

I was wondering if the essay portion has seperate question/answer books or if we will have to flip back and forth when working.
Thanks,
Ryan

I hope we don’t have to flip back and forth, but who knows… anyone who has taken level 3 willing to provide some info? thanks!

Last year’s exam booklet, you had to flip back and forth. It was annoying. At least you’ll have designated pages for each answer this year..

That’s disheartening, no wonder time is an issue. I could use some scrap paper too for rough notes, calculations..

answer pages are in the middle of the book – so YOU HAVE TO FLIP back and forth.
DO NOT TRY TO BREAK THE BOOK APART. YOU WILL BE IN VIOLATION OF CFAI RULES - AND YOU WILL FORFEIT THE EXAM.
NO EXTRA SCRATCH PAPER PROVIDED.
In the middle of your book - you will find pages marked - “DO NOT WRITE ANYTHING ON THIS PAGE. IT WILL NOT BE GRADED”. You can use those for scratch.
ALSO DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE OF WRITING ON THE PAGE WITH THE VIGNETTE / QUESTIONS.
WRITE ONLY ON THE RULED PAGES OR PAGES WITH TEMPLATES.
WATCH OUT FOR MARKINGS indicating TEMPLATES.

Now would be a good time to open up the 2014 and the 2015 Exam booklets in its entirety from the CFAI website and get used to the formatting / pattern and the above.

Yeah seems much clearer now with each required answer having it’s own dedicated, labelled page. Should be easy enough not to screw it up…
