Also took level II
I wouldn't be surprised if I passed...I wouldn't be surprised if I failed.
Was a breeze in the AM, but a different story in the PM..
Totally agree with that...
I had over an hour to spare in the morning...can't say the same for the afternoon despite needing to do some guesses...i still ran tight with time!
I took level 3 yesterday. Hard to say, as emotions are mixed. As for me, it was an incredibly difficult morning part with a significant lack of time, but a very easy afternoon part. We shall see how it goes with the grading...
I got the same impressions about it. I had half an hour left in the afternoon and I started looking around and wondering if I did something wrong...
Not only that, but yesterday was too hot for comfort.
For Level I: I felt great and finished with plenty of time in the AM... the PM punched me in the crotch and took my lunch money. Anyone else had a similar experience? Proctors in LA botched the starting times and I ended up stuck in Hicksville way too long.
i had my CFA cherry popped this Sat. and i agree with the whole AM/PM thing. the PM sections sucked balls. i hope i passed =)
Took level I and completely agree. The PM was insane.
L1 was a cakewalk compared to II. Come next June, as I am sure most of you passed L1, you will be wishing that the material was like like Level 1
I thought I could wing level II like level I. Unless I pulled off a miracle, three weeks is not enough prep time.
lvl 2 is cakewalk compare to 3.
At least lvl 2 you can actually come up with an answer. For level 3, every argument/statement you see on the exam can be argued from 2 separate angles taught by the lvl 3 curriculum.
Don't be tricked by the pass rates. They're all freaking hard. I'll probably be taking 3 again next year....
