Ok thank you.

Hi Nicole, I guess at this stage there won't be any practice questions for Grinold for the Nov exam either? Thanks, :S

How does the time you spent on Level 2 compare to the time spent on Level 1? What you describe is pretty similar to what I did for level 1 - about 6 weeks in total, just worked from BT - so I'd be interested in hearing the comparison.

Well that was certainly exhaustive! Many thanks for that it was very helpful.

My pass mark has disappeared as well. I don't think we should worry though; the website is just borked from us all checking.

Hi, Having passed Level 1 (go team!) and feeling happy for at least four hours now, I am coming back down to earth thinking that I still have Level 2 to do. What is the sense of how difficult Level 2 is versus Level 1? Also, is there more material to cover? I only decided to do Level 1 in...

Thanks, mine are up too. I got a 1,1,1,1 which completely baffles me. Big, BIG thanks to the BT team and @David Harper CFA FRM

I may be projecting here but I don't think people are "claiming the exam is unfair", rather that it is difficult to prepare for as the sample papers are not particularly representative of the live exam. Also, for me, having bugger all scratch paper was really difficult, and pointlessly so. I...

The pencils did get incredibly dull after 4 hours - I wish I had brought a sharpener. Also, the lack of loose scratch paper was incredibly frustrating. If they could even have provided those blank pages at the back of the book I could have torn them out to use.

Wow that is impressive recall. You bring back some horrible memories. In general I agree with the tone on the board here. This was a tough exam. In some ways the questions were easier (or at least shorter) than the practice questions that BT produce for each chapter - doing the BT chapter...

I remember the question and I recall that I used the binomial to get an answer and that the answer was one of the options (whatever good that does me) but can't remember the details beyond that.
