Want to pass the CFA exam? Start preparing the right way.

To access our free mock exams for other levels, check out our Free Guides section.

CFA Level 3 candidates: since doing practice questions is one of the best ways to study, here is our updated, free CFA Level 3 mock exam for more practice, thanks to our partner IFT.

This is a 2 hour 12 minutes, 44 questions practice exam, weighted as per CFA Institute’s guidance. This is a proper mock exam, rather than independent question-bank-type questions, as it uses the item-set and vignette format that’s the same as the actual CFA Level 3 exam afternoon session.

You can take the test online or download the PDF questions, with full answers and analytics included – all for free! After submitting your answers online, you’ll instantly be sent a personalized test result report, full answer explanations and a comparison of your performance to the rest of the candidate population.

  • I believe Question #2 is stated differently than what's shown on the Answer Key. Please double check. Thanks!

    • I've checked question 2, I'm not sure what you mean. If you can be more specific with the issue you have, and the specific question, I'd be happy to take another look! You can also email me at zee@300hours.com if you prefer.

      • In Q on paper it asks which procedure is 'inconsistent', while the answer key is for 'consistent' procedure.

  • Dear 300hours

    I still have a 60-question format of CFA level 3 mock.

    Unfortunately, 300hours have decided to change from 60 question to 44 question in order to reflect the current exam format.

    However, for a practicing purpose, I believe that the 60 question format is still very helpful and I can learn a lot from questions that were removed.

    Is it possible that 300hours continue maintaining a solution of the 60-question paper format?
    That would be very much appreciated.

    Best Regards,
    Anthony

    • Hi Anthony, yes, you can submit your answers to the previous 2021 version of the mock here, and you'll receive the answers via email. Best of luck, you're nearly there with L3!

  • Where are the 'Full Answers and Analytics' ? All I see is only answer choices, no explanation.

  • Thanks for providing the sample exam.
    Will the performance calculation be fixed? My score is still calculated out of 60 and I think also the ranking stats againts peers are off.
    Thanks!
