LOLOLOLOL. No words can express the level of ridiculousness and frustration I feel with the difficulty of this Ethics item set. The correct answer literally boils down to a whether a single word is either included or omitted… I get attention to detail and all, but this was taking it pretty far, even by CFAI standards.
Please feel free to vent here if you found this one insanely hard!
I’m glad to see I’m not alone. I completely screwed that one up (1 out of 6 correct). And since it was the first set in the entire mock exam, it completely crushed my hopes as I went on. Fortunately the rest were not as bad. But phew… I really hope the real thing won’t have anything comparable. Especially considering that it’s Ethics, and flunking it would have really bad consequences even if you do well in the rest
It’s the first question of the morning session of Level 3 mock exam on the CFA website. You can try to see if you can access it… (though for some reason I’m having trouble logging in right now to the website, I get a 403 forbidden error).
