CFA being hard

said my hero.

tank. plz advise hwo hard now

What is considered difficult is relative though is it not? Do you have to be a genius on paper to pass all three levels? No. However, are there absolutely a great number of individuals, that no matter how many times they made an attempt to learn and retain enough of the curriculum to pass, still not able to? Yes.

This follows the same logic as when someone said to me in an undergrad econ class, “If we just get rid of the lowest 10 percent of earners in America we would be able to eliminate poverty”. The huge problem with that is there will ALWAYS be a bottom 10 percent, flipping burgers, working at Wal-Mart, etc. Same for passing or not passing the exams. You either can’t for personal reasons or you are just not genetically fortunate to physically be able to.

oh boy this topic again lol.

Haha my bad!

was it you that went back and forth with me that i never passed the exam and i was “bashing” on the difficulty of cfa because it is something i never could have but wanted? Like losers bashing super hot chicks how they are slutty for wearing mad tight short skirts and being all over a super hunky guy?

What? lol no I don’t think so…it says you hold the charter. How would someone never pass the exams and hold it? Or was this person implying that you are lying about being a charter holder? In any event, don’t think it was me.

ok my bad…

Water Cooler didn’t exist yet when he was posting.

I don’t think post count existed either. We remembered quantity of posts by memory.

If there was an ounce of common sense here, there would be a Hall of Fame section where this issue would be easily resolved. A place with the poster’s bio, comments from fellow posters and links to the poster’s best posts.

To think i have been on this site for 10 years…

I looked through the material in my buddy’s curriculum books and bet him i could pass with 45 days of studying. The material is easy and a lot of it is common knowledge in the industry. It’s not like you guys are studying some secret sacred text.

Looks are deceiving, brosef

I could see it being difficult if you’re trying to get into the industry but not if you already are dealing with this stuff daily.

It’s definitely tough, but if you can make common sense of most of the material then it becomes significantly easier. I haven’t had many problems with any of the level 2 problems. I have the most problems with regression analysis because my job has nothing to do with it.

Lol

There was a nice John Adams quote. Also there is a nice isiah quote in page 2. Nice story line by cheese.

whatever happened to ace?

We keep in touch about triathlon and stuff. He is doing well! He just finished his first full Ironman triathlon. He also looks to have a girlfriend that is like the female version of him. It’s adorable.
