Last two weeks two my exam, what shall I focus on?

CFA Level I
#1

Greetings fellow CFA pros!

I just finished all the CFA practice questions that you get included with a 54% answer success rate. Is there anything in particular I shall be focusing on to be able to pass?
My exam day is the 17th of February. I’m stronger in most theory sections and much weaker in remembering all the formulas.
I’m almost done with my master’s degree and I think I have a good base and grasping most concepts well but I just have a hard time remembering all minor details.

All tips and tricks are welcome. I’m very thankful for all the help I’ve gotten here so far through the forum.

Thank you!

Make sure you know how to use your calculator!!! :abacus: :nerd_face:

CFAI even posted this on their LinkedIn site!!! :+1:

Change the battery BEFORE you go to your exam! It is a royal pain in the :peach: to change and you don’t wanna waste time in the middle of the exam!!!

Do you have that link? I can’t find it.

Thanks for that tip. I will try and change it before.

mock until you drop

Alright, just did the first mock exam with 53% correct… anything else?

I second the suggestion on Mocks.
But if you’re getting 53% correct, that’s 47% wrong, so if you know what you’re getting wrong try and get it right

you redo all your mistakes. then you redo all the mocks again. make a cheat sheet of formulas. thats just to cram on last day.

Is the actual test as hard as the practice questions and the mocks or slightly easier? I mean it is very hard to remember all those formulas and all this theory in total…

I’m trying to follow your guidance now and just doing review of mock exams and doing new mock exams then.
