from your experience in the exam, be kind and write one line only, to help our friends who will be taking the exam in June.

* make sure you study concepts and understand definitions rather than formulas themselves when it comes to quantitative methods
 
have numerous jager shots lined up for your arrival home...some ballet dancers do not hurt either.
 
Read the given answers first before you read the question.
This method really saves time because as you read the question you can put it in context of the answers.
 
DO ALL 5 SAMPLE EXAMS ON CFAI WEBSITE. STUDY THE ONES YOU GOT WRONG!!!
 
explain to family and friends/girlfriend what you're going through. if they think it's unimportant then you're in for a real treat

Booo!!!!!
 
For those appearing June ( 177 days more) these are my 2 cents......dont disregard...

1) start ur prep early ...hopefully complete one reading 2 months before the exam

2) Start Scheweser Book 6...do exam 1 morning ans after noon session seperately with a gap of 15 days.....

3) check ur scores and go back to the LOS where u have gone wrong....revise thoroughly....

4) do the same for second exam.....

5) take the final exam.....complete in real exam simulated contions...with timin

juss do it....u will all pass

all the best

Read GIPS. Stop. And then READ GIPS AGAIN. At least 30% of ethics was GIPS. And, oh yeah, for discontinued protfolios, they need to be listed for 5 years. Remember FIVE YEARS.
 
The best advantage you can give yourself is time. Make sure you have at least 2-3 weeks before the exam in which time you can take as many practice exams as possible. It does not matter how long you study, due to amount of material covered it is hard to remember the whole package. This can only be done through practice exams. Try to mix schweser stalla and so on. Also make sure to take at least a CFAI online exam.
 
Answer as many practice questions as you can, and thoroughly read the explanantions to the ones you get wrong, and the ones you aren't 100% on. Understand why you got each one right so you will never miss one like that again. Do this 5 or 6 thousand times and you will be fine.

Excuse me Ms. Proctor, before I start the exam can I ask you, are you about a size 14? Goood. Oh goood.
 
bring notes with you and review them in between exams what you dont know. The second exam was almost identical to first conceptually!
 
To all who responded and will respond -- much appreciated! :)
