Hi,
Please share last 15 days plan ?? How are you’ll planning to go about it ?
 
old CFA mocks only now.
From my experience, the EOC will NOT help you pass this exam, you need to review the heck out of old exams, and your own notes! good luck to everyone
 
@ext – will u share your experience… have u given this l3 before ? y r u saying so.. eoc wont help this time than Old CFA.?

EOCs seem pretty difficult on most of the questions. It’s just that they may lack the AM vignette style, but the content and coverage is definitely adequate.

Don’t get so caught up in other people’s blanket responses. What works for one may not work for the other. And I’d be weary of a steadfast claim that CFAI material will not help you pass… a CFAI exam. If your plan was to keep going through EOCs then do it. Don’t change your strategy just because of something you read on here.
 
From my point f view, EOC can help .
However, if one had to choose between old real CFAI exam or EOC, it would be better to do old exams.
 
i plan on studying about 100 more hours in the next two weeks… id fail if the exam were today but feel i can raise my score another 5-10% by exam time.
Plan is to break down the exam to see the “invisible study guide.. there are a set of core topics that im fairly confident will show up.. each SS and reading has some key concepts/formulas that I plan on knowing well also.. for the periphery topics my plan is just for damage control.. hopefully on PM i will get a few guesses wright
40% of AM is between Individual/ Behavioral/ Institutional … no excuse to get a question wrong about the definition of a bias for example.. will it really be a suprise when it asks to describe the factors that affect ability to take risk? no suprises
 
My plan is flexible but I’ve sketched out the following rough timeline on an index card:
Saturday, June 4 - EXAM DAY!
Friday, June 3 - Off from work. Relax. Get in hotel room. Maybe check some formulas and do a flip of LevelUp material.
Thursday, June 2 - Off from work. Study plan to be determined
Wednesday, June 1 - Off from work. LevelUp IPS Workshop review
Tuesday, May 31 - Formula Review; LevelUp curriculum flip; LevelUp IPS Workshop review

Well, I have to fly to Vegas for work, which is where I’ll be the next couple of days. Definitely throwing a wrench into my study plans!! Hope to study on the plane (5+ hours each way from NY). Can’t wait until this is over…
