in reply to: You passed Level 1. What do you wish you knew? #75872Up::3
I’m actually very embarrassed to admit this but when I walked into the exam center I almost burst into tears cause I could feel the anxiety and stress in the room, its like I have to beat 67% of the people I see! But I calmed down and stuck to my principles.
A few things I did that I found helped was:
1) I stopped studying a couple of days before the exam
2) Didn’t bring any study material with me to the test center
(This was to avoid causing last minute panic)
3) Ensure you are aware of all the examination rules and location (there was a huge traffic jam around the test center so my parents (there’re awesome) couldn’t drop me off at the door and I had to walk the last leg)
4) Don’t talk about the exam during the session break – laugh/joke with your friends and unwind so you have a somewhat rested and refreshed mind for the afternoon session.Hope this helps ^.^
I wish I was one of those people who can force themselves to shut off and zen out before an exam but I’ll always be pouring over notes up until go time, even thought I know none of it sticks.
Up::2I know I’m a bit late to the party but hi everyone, I’m a first time level 1 candidate sitting the December exam. I’m in my final semester of my Commerce/Economics degree so studying simultaneously for this and uni is piling on but just have to stick it out. I’m hoping to go directly into working in the industry after graduating but want to get the jump start on my qualification. Good to be here.
in reply to: Question on Reading 49 (Equity Securities) #75893Up::1Yeah it mainly means the common shareholders dividend depends upon the operating profit (performance) whereas preference shareholders dividends are independent of the net profit/performance.
