Hi all,
I observed that the topic weights for Level 1 exam on the CFAI site were not the same as what was given in the CFAI mock.
eg: There was a greater weight given to Alternative Investments than what was mentioned on the website.
Does the real test also deviate from the stipulated topic weights?
 
Really? I didn’t even notice. What was the weight? I thought AI was 3%?
 
There were 6 questions of AI in each of the AM & PM sessions
 
Well, good thing AI is a strong topic for me…..every mark counts.
 
Is this going to remain the same on the actual test as well? In that case, I better revise AI again.
 
@Stons
I still don’t see any weightage change on CFA Insttitute website. Where did you see it?
 
@artyb: What I mean is that on the CFA Website AI is given a 3% weight (which has not changed as you pointed out), whereas there are 6 Q each in the AM & PM mocks.
 
I dont think schweser dictactes CFAI weights. I wouldn’t put to much thought into it.
