On Tuesday morning I found out that I failed CFA Level 2. Band 9. To my surprise, ethics got me. It’s a disappointment but I know I’ll pass next year. Until then, I decided to register for CAIA Level 1 this morning! Any others out there? This forum, not surprisingly, is not nearly as active as the CFA forum. I’m almost done with the 2012 CAIA book and am working through Uppermark TestBank questions to bridge the gap between 2012 and 2013 exams. I also spent about $50 on eBay to get some electronic version of Schweser materials. Hope that wasn’t a scam! Anyway, what are your study strategies?
Hi Jamie,
Funny, Last year I also failed Lvl2 CFA with a band 9 and also ended up sitting CAIA Lvl 1 in sept and passed. This year I passed Lvl2 CFA aswell so don’t give up! I passed Lvl1 CAIA with just schweser and 2 schweser practise exams + official CAIA mock. I think I scored 75% on the mocks prior to the exam.
Started studying for CAIA lvl2. It’s going to be a cram but I’ll probably buy the question bank from uppermark soon.
thanks for the words of encouragement. its appreciated! good luck with L2!
