At least I don’t see any for the derivatives section.
I’m devastated because I studied the derivatives section from the 2016 book (I could not take the exam this year) and now seeing these changes, and no EOC questions…

Don’t worry, derivatives is the same as 2016, just condensed in one reading.

Yeah, looks to me flipping through the LOS but would be safer having the EOCs, I could drill those and see if there’s anything new. I just will not have time to meticulously go through the derivatives reading this year again due to a very limited time schedule.

This is why I don’t care that I failed.

There are less readings in FRA now, which could be a good thing for us as Level 2 candidates, and there are much more new Readings in Portfolio Management

This is definitely not true. The derivatives readings for 2017 (at least the first two) are very different from the 2016 readings. Personally, I didn’t like the new readings at all….
