Well, you have two days to go. You’ve been studying like mad, working EOC problems and blue boxes and practice exams and QBank and mock exams and reviewing and reviewing and reviewing.
Now’s the time to relax and prepare yourself for Saturday. Tell yourself that you’re ready for this; in fact, you are.
If you must do something today and tomorrow, let it be a light review. Look at the formulae one last time. (One last time, not 20 last times!) Look over the lists of junk you were tasked to memorize (e.g., economic indicators). Skim Ethics. (Skim!)
Make sure that you have what you need:
  • exam ticket
  • passport
  • calculator (and a spare if you want)
  • pencils
  • eraser
  • car keys
  • lunch
  • directions to the exam location
Put everything together in one place so that you can grab it all and go Saturday morning.
Get a good night’s sleep tonight. There’s no reason not to: you’re ready for this exam.
Get a really good night’s sleep Friday night. There’s no reason not to: you’re ready for this exam.
Best of luck to all of you. You’ll all be in our prayers Saturday morning.

you’ve been tremendously helpful…just curious, are you still in school (e.g. MBA)? You seem to dedicate awful lot of time here… (trust me, and it’s amazing to all of us!)
 
Well, I’m still in school, but now on the other side of the desk. I teach some finance courses at UC, Irvine, and taught mathematics as CSU Fullerton for 20 years.
If I ever went back to school on your side of the desk, it would be to finish a PhD in mathematics (probably in knot theory). One of these days, if I’m lucky.
If you want to read a little about my boring life, search for “oracle” on this very website.
 
thank you very much sire,
when i search for particular topics here or frustated about some formula, unsurprisingly, more often than not, you are the one who answers and explained it all to us all young padawans.
So thank you very much!
for my fella test takers, i hope we all AF members will passed! (and i hope all lvl 1 takers here not encompassing more than 30% of entire cfa lvl 1 takers population, if so, then im screwed.. lol )
 
Thanks a lot S2000 for all your help. The name befits you, you truly are a magician.
 
Due to time zone difference, I will be among the first ones to sit for the exam tomorrow. I would like to say thanks for your supports and inspirations during these days, especially continuous supports from Mr. Magician and valuable advices from Ms. Nana Hachiko. Hopefully these will be converted to my success.
Good night, everyone. Keep calm and good luck! Once again, thanks.

What do you think of Schweser’s Secret Sauce as a high-level review for the final day?
Also, I feel compelled to thank you for your contributions to the forum. You’re a legend Mr. Campbell.

I’d say it’s good for the few days, maybe the last week. I wouldn’t have saved it for the last day; I’d be taking it a lot easier than that today.
