Newbie here :smiley:
As shown on the CFA instt.’s website that a MPS is set after the exam is conducted but is not released to the students & the score is also not provided.
So how many correct attempts out of the 120 questions is a sure bet to clear the exams or is attempting all the 120 questions correctly the only safe way?Kindly advice.

Yes only an international passport will work and nothing else. No idea how the article is making such claims.

80%? Lol. the pass rate would be like 20% then. I got above 70% in everything other than FRA and my estimated average was 76%. 70% is a pass on any day. -

The CFA do not release what score candidates got or what the MPS was. However I believe that the long-term MPS has been triangulated down (based on pass / fail results and the three bands per candidate, per topic) by some more advanced mathematicians to be circa 62%.
Obviously, it can be higher or lower than the average for any given exam if the writers believe that the exam is harder or easier than the average. -

About 85 out of 120 questions correct should carry you to safety.

You saying only 68% might be enought? I thought that minimum passing score is like 80%.

i think that you’re safe with 70%, but most people say that is the max the MPS can be

They never release the minimum passing score, and it changes from year to year…however I believe it is a commonly accepted belief that the CFAI have never failed a candidate who scored over 70% in an exam. I THINK this has been confirmed by the CFAI themselves…
