I missed clearing Level 2 last time :-(. Score band 9 - unfortunate.

Even more unfortunate is that I am starting my studies now - and find the curriculum has changed quite a bit!

So level 2 here I come again...

Last Chance To Fine Tune...

I just came across this heading when reading about England's preparation for the Euro 2012. Seemed kind of destined for my heading. CFA Level 2 Exams tomorrow. And it is the last chance to fine tune.

I just finalised my strategy for today. I am to give 30 mins for each topic instead of a haphazard frenzied studying /solving schedule as I have followed for the past few days. It will take me 5 hours then to revise / glance over all the core concepts. With luck I should be done by 9 pm including breaks. Unfortunately it has taken me more than half a day to finalize this strategy...and now I am blogging - wasting more time ;-)

Some stats I came across... 60% of the Level 2 examinees are re-takers. So what are the chances that they are better prepared (at least than me)? With the average pass rate between 35 - 40%...where do I think are my chances??? Thats a no-brainer! However the motto is "Never give up till the last die has been cast."

And that reminds me - cant wait to get to Genting to cast the die. Exams, sweet exams, will be over tomorrow. Tra la laaaa...
