3) from the print menu I printed ‘all odd pages’ (prints come out print side up) 4) taking the stack of printed paper, reversed the order. 5) put the stack print side up into the paper tray. 6) then printed ‘all even pages’. Hey-presto note cards!

Well they are not perfect. I can’t cut them into A6 because some of the text overruns, so I cut them by hand with scisssors and they are rather odd sizes. But I’m not complaining they seem pretty succinct notes. My guess is to do a good job you need to start with the.tex files and use some other tool.

GIPS (focus on required): CFA Glossary. I’ll reemphasize point #1, and specifically: finding a balance I finished the 3rd level this year and learned that if you start at a good time, it shouldn’t take up your entire weekend. You should be able to knock out maybe 3 hours Sat/Sun morning, and then get 2 hours per day for 4 days a week, and be okay if you do it for 6 months. That comes to 14 hours per week, 56 hours per month, or just over 300 hours in 6 months.

This still leaves you with most of the weekend to go and spend time with friends without missing out. I got better about that, but should have done it sooner. If you plan it out well, and use your time efficiently (study a little before work, during lunch at work, and an hour after work, and you have your 2 hours x 4 days per week), this is a very reasonable test.

I still worried a lot, I wasted more time than needed, but it’s doable, and if you’re efficient, it won’t totally interfere with everything else in life. Start early and only start when you’re ready to get going, in my opinion. Don’t start and go really slow. Either hit the books hard or don’t.

And if you’re like me, don’t even bother starting with Ethics. It’s too early, it’s really boring, and you should really just be doing that closer to the end so it’s fresh in your mind for the test. I somehow missed that Adam Runk post last spring. You all should bookmark that and use it as a reference. Good stuff from Gotham, too.

Here are some other things I think will be helpful (i) This is a great, famous post from some guy “Trimonious” on Level III (ii) You are likely inclined to believe the 2004-2010 AM exams aren’t relevant to the 2016 examNOT TRUE. There are some differences but largely the curriculum and main topics they test have stayed the same. Old exams are excellent practice, and the CFA guideline answers are golden studying material. (iii) Some may not agree with me, but the AM mocks aren’t good.

They are very simplistic and not at all like the real CFA exam questions. I felt I wasted time doing them. FOCUS ON THE OLD CFA AM EXAMS, even the ones a decade old. The PM mocks are OK.

Notes are good and I think covered practically everything on the 2015 exam, but their AM mocks aren’t worth the time. (iv) On exam day, you’re highly likely to score lower in the AM than you thought.

In May you’ll see people posting that they scored 75 or higher on the 2014 or 2015 CFA AM exam. The results matrices posted on this site say otherwise. Its very rare to see people post AM matrices in the 75% range. I thought I graded my mock exams conservatively, but my AM 40/60/80 score was 10 percentage points lower than where I was on mock exams. I don’t think I’m alone.

The good news is you don’t need 70% in the AM – you can get away with 60% or even (slightly) lower. (v) The AM is the differentiator for most on pass vs fail. You need to be ready for it. You’ve got 6 hours to do the entire exam; I bet most candidates wish they could borrow 1 hour from the PM and use it for the AM (4 hours to do AM, and 2 hours for the PM).

The 3 hours will fly by in the AM. If you spend an extra 10-15 minutes on one question, you’re very possibly going to have to leave another question entirely blank. Don’t write BS in the AM b/c you definitely won’t get credit for it and you’re wasting VALUABLE time. @ Tommy83 - thanks for sharing, the Trimonious link is great - and so is your advice. I personally didn’t go back so far on CFAI AM exams (I went back through 2011), but have it to do over I would. Your point that the old CFAI AM exams are not worthless and the secret sauce is in practicing the AM and leveraging off the model answers is SPOT on.

If I were sitting this year knowing what I know now from experience, I would definitely have practiced and reviewed CFAI AM releases much further back than I did. As far as grading, I was overly harsh, and of the 10 mock exams I completed before exam day, I only exceeded 70% on two of them - and they were in fact. My exam 40/60/80 AM score came out at 61.82% which was very close to my trailing mean in practice of 60.19%. I’m sure this accuracy is an anomaly, but being overly critical definitely helped motivate me to focus on practicing more constructed response which was my saving grace when I squeaked by on exam day.

Please contact us if you have any questions.” Feels great to be done!

Definitely propels you forward psychologically. Just thought I’d let those of you who are getting ready to write the last level know. I already posted a few tips on the forum before, but here is what I think is most important: 1) Read the CFA books and do all the EOC questions.

Start reading now, if you haven’t started yet. 2) Practice doing as many relevant CFA exams as you can in the same setting as the actual exam (9-12, 2-5, timed - no breaks).

3) Be disciplined and stay mentally strong no matter what. Do not let your emotions take control over you. Think about the consequences of passing (relief, new opportunities, sense of accomplishment). This is probably key, which should drive the whole preparation. 4) Visit and use this forum as much as you can. Lots of great tips and answers to various questions available here. Plus you don’t feel like you are doing this alone.

5) In addition to your own notes, use these notes to review and to check your knowledge: The notes are very good for some sections and ok for others. Pretty funny at times too.

Keep an eye on any mistakes and verify/supplement with the actual text. 6) On the exam day, for the AM section, do the easiest questions first, keeping your answers short. I ended up leaving some IPS questions till the end to avoid writing too much at the beginning of the exam, which worked out well. Vishwa Vidhaata 1997 Songs Download.

I think this strategy allows you to get through the questions you know well and potentially get some points for the ones that you don’t. Finishing the AM section on time is challenging. Keep that in mind. Point #2 should help.

7) Rent a hotel room nearby if your test location is far. This will save you some time in the morning and allow you to avoid unnecessary stress. Do this ahead of time because there might be no spots left later on. Note: If you are running out of time to study, focus on #3 and #2, referring to the books and reading them as you go.

The material will stick best when you start doing the questions and looking for detailed explanations in the text. Hope this helps. Fiscal and Monetary Policy My understanding is that monetary policy typically impacts the short end of the yield curve while fiscal policy impacts the long end. This makes sense as central banks historically controlled the (we won’t expand on current unconventional methods) controls short term rates and governmental fiscal policies impact longer term growth expectations which in turn impact the long end of the curve.

Best policy and curve discussion I found out there is quoted below. Here’s the link.
