I had something like that around q 15-25 i guess. Is the sequence of questions same for everyone? Secondly some concepts although i was vee clear on, i felt the options were too close to choose Like for example libor vs OIS - Such a simple concept, on which one to chose for discounting...

Nope,unless garp decides the pass rate for this year may 2017 to be around 25%. It should be fair to assume it would be around 50-55. Perception of questions is one thing and solving them under pressure in exam is a whole lot different. On a normal day lot of us with decent prep will do 60 for...

For everyone here i do not want to be a spoil sport, but do hold the horses till next couple of hours before posting details about topics to ensure all the time zone takers have a fair play

Completely agree I am L2 giver,just glanced at this page and thought too much was given away when american,latin america timezones have not yet started the exam. May be @Nicole Seaman can ensure that the the thread gets opened only after the last possible time zone exam has started in future...

Does everyone get the same sequence if questions? seems like i had a sequence of consecutive Ds On the paper part -theoretically tricky and deep ,quant is doable apart from 2-3 extremely lengthy problems which i felt are better left untouched. Most of the questions were verbose with...

Thanks buddy! Will keep in touch!

Congrats Buddy!! Can you pls throw some light on your sources of prep! this wd be helpful for future L2 participants!

Guess there is some problem in BT forum- got to re-register with same id to start posting as my previous ID was deleted

wohoooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!! Cleared 1,1,2,2 Answered 75 questions with great confidence and guessed the rest 25 as mentioned earlier! 1

I still doubt if we both are referring to the same question. I don remember the answers , but this is how i wd have gone(or went) about it. First assume X=0 and then calculate Y value for b0. Use the slope methodology to calculate b1. Then put b0 and b1 into equation and caluculate Y value for...

The option 1 using call options value is the way to go according to me, since when a call is purchased the var is limited to the value of call option value Is the ols question on Y dependent on X? For that they asked bo and b1 values? Its calculaing the value using interecept and the slope...

For american option v need to add dividend as it increases put value(i don remember whether a risk free rate is given in this question or was it even required. Jus remember the option i solved was found in the options which can go either ways) On the VAR part, we calculate on call if we have...

I agree with ur answer on 100 volume and 50 open interest. If there is any other view for anyone else let us know

Thanks ma Thanks mate. I ve known u from couple of other forums too. Ur preparation and clarity in concepts was top notch. Infact each time i read ur posts i used to get kicked out of complacency in preparation.

After completing the exam even i was overjoyed. Primarily stems for the fact i was aiming to get around 50 correct , but managed to attempt 75 within the time (I predict my final score wd be around 55-60). Infact i spent lots of time double checking reading the question to make sure i was not...

Is it not a violation of GARP code doing this? Surprised this has come from S666 !!! Discussing paper difficulty is different and posting exam question information is different.

Easy is a relative word. Few of us might feel easy after answering 60 questions with confidence and others might feel it is difficult because they have answered only 80 questions with confidence. So cannot post an accurate measurement . In addition to take the relativeness a notch higher , it...
