Like everyone is saying I wouldn’t worry about scores until the final month. Also its important to realize that a ton more information is going to be thrown at you as you progress. Develop a plan of attack and don’t get discouraged when you score in the 60’s on your first full practice test
in reply to: How did it go? #81434in reply to: Auto pilot during the exam #81423::Yeah that’s how I felt. It honestly doesn’t even feel like I took a majority of the exam. The only things I really recall from it were the problems I had issues on (around 20is) and the fact that I ran out of time for 5-7 problems on the 2nd section and had to fill in the bubbles randomly 🙁

In my test center 3 people started crying during the AM session. A person got caught cheating and had his test removed during the exam (very distracting) and a couple people had anxiety attacks and had to get escorted out. All this combined with the fact that 58 people just didn’t show up for the test and another 30ish didnt even bother to return for the PM session.
in reply to: Almost there L1’ers #81334::Yeah I’ve been really surprised with the differences between the practice tests. Ethics has historically been one of my strongest areas but this particular practice test is taking me to school. I found that EOC questions were far easier than the practice exam questions. I’m really sorry that you had an event happen that prevented you from sticking to your schedule. Pressure makes diamonds though I’m sure that you’ll come out on top. Best of luck. Hit me up if you have any questions.
Best,
Jakein reply to: Which topic did you find the hardest in Level 1? #81322in reply to: Online Training Providers #81321::I’m assuming by online service provider you mean study provider. I highly recommend Schweser, I just recently graduated college and now work in the industry so I have a good base but Schweser really helped fill in the gaps in my knowledge (I hope). Another thing I would recommend to you is spending the extra money if you can to get a paper copy of the texts and test. The way I see if the test is on paper, machines break and books aren’t connected to distracting things like reddit and espn.com

If you plug it in to the CAPM equation you get 13.1 since that’s an option for your multiple choice and your inputs are correct you’ve got the answer.
