CFA Level 1 exam

Question

Hi frds, I wanted to share with you my experience from the exam. So many evenings dedicated to the reading of materials, but still, it wasn`t enough for me to feel confidence during the exam.
I was also sitting in front of controllers, who were young people talking, joking all the time. So, plus my stress it made me to reread the questions several times as I couldn`t concentrate on reading, and as a result I had to just fill in the last 20 questions without reading as I was short in time.
But I’m very happy that I started these studies, it was very useful for me, nevertheless negative or positive results of the exam (hopefully positive) :)

@Lilas: I had my advanced corporate reporting paper for ACCA. that is a monster monster paper. I already had given another exam on ethics the day before. I think at that point I was so numb and exhausted from the lack of sleep I couldn't feel my toes. I was barely able to concentrate and look what happened. They had an extremely cute controller guy stalking my corner of the aisle. seriously messed up stuff I tell you. lol. Another time a lady kept interrupting me during the exam checking my id like 20 times. I finally snapped and was like seriously woman, who would want to walk into this nightmare of an exam randomly and sit for it? get a life. lol lots of creepy and crappy stories at exam centers.

Anyhoo good luck to you and everyone who sat the exam. Hopefully everyone passes cos I am sure everyone did the best they could. Fingers crossed!
