Got the boot from AF. I later learned that I cannot distribute exams due to copyright issues. So my mockstock didnt take place. I understand why I cant distribute...I get that. But I think it was a little harsh to boot me from AF. I think I have been a pretty solid contributor. And im a bit unsure where the line is drawn. The questions posted on this forum are from 3rd party providers. Doesnt that infringe on their rights? If I were to compose an exam of just questions on this forum would that be okay? Ah well...

Anyways....Ive been working my tail off. Im more or less really frustrated at this pt. I am in a world of pain with book 7. I have a lot to do. Asset Val is ugly. Im also not pleased with many of the questions in book 7. There is no way the CFAI will ever ask about the specific details of a country's exchange. Im not in panic mode yet, but I will slip into a deep depression in about a week. ah well..thats life.

Aah!! book7!!
let jb relax a bit!!:-))
welcome back Jb(we missed you,truely)
we will discuss more Ethics Qs today(tonight)
 
Thx. mid 60's on book 7.

Its dumb though....with a bit of focus and not being an idiot...i should be getting well above 80. There is nothing I cant understand and not too many questions look foreign to me. I just get rattled with the time crunch and rush everything. 3 weeks to go....im passing this thing...put too much in to not pass. I think I hit 500 hrs well over a month ago.
 
you mean you didn't know whether the austrian mkt was a call or continous mkt? mid 60's is ok, i think. or i hope.
 
Even i find it weird
I got >70% in equity,last time(So ,as if I have a right to speak out)
why a Q like "whether Zambia has call or continous market may come"
thats why its schweser Q and not real stuff:-)
 
Welcome back jb - I am also a little confused about copyright stuff here. I think that posting a question that you are confused about and discussing it meets the standard that we are only reproducing a limited amount of stuff for educational purposes so it's OK. I guess that posting one every day is crossing Chad's line. I didn't think so, but it's his call cuz it's his website.
 
Yes!!
Its like providing some sample Qs stuff(say 3 Qs out of 300)
Otherwise,What and How to discuss?
anyway,AF is a great forum for many healthy discussion
 
welcome back JB!

i've been saying it all along- my # 1 mistake for Dec was studying too long and not doing enough practice tests. it's hard to stay focused for 3 hours straight. it's hard to get all of the questions right when you're tested on all material, not just the subjects that are fresh in your mind. keep it up- you'll find your stride and also figure out when you just have to cut bait on a question and pass it up until the end when you're done. if you get stuck on 5 questions for 5 minutes each on a test- that's 25 minutes of time. find those 4 or 5 questions that you have each side of a test, let them go even though it stinks to let anything go on the test, focus hard on the rest of the exam, and come back to those if time permits. practice this when you take your next exam- skip the few that you know will crush your time. then, if you're still ok at the end, go attack them. if not, you guess on your 4 or 5 worst q's, not the easy PM ones at the back of the test because you had 20 seconds on each left.

practice not only solving problems as you go through your practice tests, but also looking at the answers and saying- ok, I can eliminate these 2 right off the bat because of this or that. most q's you can do that and get rid of 1 or 2 answers pretty fast.
flip a coin between the other 2 answers, move on, and crush the stuff you do know well.
 
yea!!! glad you're back jb. dont get discouraged.... you're totally on track. just keep doing problems like bannis said. we've still got time.
 
I wondered what happened to the mock exam.... bummer. T minus 19 days... still plenty-o studying time left. Just tak'n it one concept at a time. Oh yeah, and, velcome back!
