May 2021 Level 3 Exam Results

You mean save section progress? Or save prior level progress?

My sections save automatically when I complete them. Prior level exam results disappear for me after about 1-2 years so I just keep the results emails in a mail folder. Dunno if I am answering your question or if I misunderstood… in which case apologies.

Oh sorry for the confusion, I’m referring to CFA’s suggestion to “…take time to save the work you have completed in the Learning Ecosystem. If you want to keep your notes, highlighting, and progress, you must make copies before results are released .”

I hope it’s not suggesting us to take screenshots of the whole curriculum, but rather there’s a more efficient way to save all the highlights and work in the E-learning system.

Wish I had the answer for you, but I can’t say. Maybe call the CFA Institute and speak to tech support?

Ahhh, the CFA results season. Everything is a “tell”, even one month in advance :smiley:
Why would CFAI wait for one month to give people the results though, no one really knows :upside_down_face:

Yes it’s a bit funny that at every level, literally every year here, we all go through the same ritual of seeking guidance through imaginary tea leaves. It is what it is… bring on August 10th already!

Is it true that the pass rate for the most recent Level 1 exam was only 25%??

If that’s the case, wowsers :flushed:

Hope the upcoming Level 3 pass rate isn’t like that!

hope its an error on their part

Yes, it’s 25%. Refer to the image I have uploaded here. I can’t sleep now and don’t think will be able to sleep properly for next 2 weeks :frowning:

That is a truly vicious pass rate, yikes!

I wouldnt be so worried over CFA level 3 exam MPS… maybe a minor correction.

On the other side, CFA level 2 exam is the one where i expect a blood bath when results come out.

The point is, CFAI doubled the number of times you can take CFA exam in a year. For this reason, they need to reduce the % of those who pass per instance.

If you keep in mind that last time it was 44%, technically they increased the % of people who pass from 22% to 25%.

ha that actually makes sense.

I would second that for a moment… we will need additional data to prove that, as in my opinion, the candidats that could have taken the exam only once in previous years will disperse now in two new dates (probably given the geographical dispersion). I mean, CFA Level 1 exam has two dates for some years now if I am correct, so actually nothing new happened there…(except the higher MPS probably)

I think candidates could appear for Level 1 in May as well as December even before in the paper based format. Not entirely sure the frequency of exam should affect the pass percentage for Level 1. This could, however be true for L2 and 3.

You are right. I would only add that CFAI has likely given them a break and now adjusted the pass rate but it is a guess.

Hope tomorrow’s May 2021 L2 results will be more typical than the L1 ones. Not that it changes anything at this point, but that would be a friendlier L3 signal regardless.

40% for level 2.

40% looks far more traditional. Folks scoring under 50% in some sections still passed apparently, some with high results compared to their peers. At least it’s not another 25% type pass rate. My L1 and L2 were 43% and 44% respectively, probably others have similar experiences.

This means the LIII would be upward of 51% but less than 55%.

My LI was 38%, LII 46% and LIII 55 or 56%
