[@niu745]

Thanks Professor! I have passed the Level 1, but could have done better if i had more time. only start watching your videos 1 and half months before Dec 2017 exam. So happy! I would like purchase the 2019 level 2 package because i guess i wont have enough time for this year june exam.

I hear the MPS is typically between 65-70%, i.e. it can never be higher than 70% because then you could have a hypothetical candidate who scores exactly 70% on all topics and still fails (and in the CFAI's words, 70% indicates reasonable mastery over a topic). Have also heard (apparently a quote from an insider) that the institute has NEVER failed anyone who scored a 70% or above. Cheers!

[@pneron2032]

Well it was 72% this year

[@germandrummer13]

How do you know that?@@pneron2032

[@rafaelmansour7304]

How much do I have to score (on average) to be in 90th percentile? Like ~85%? Thanks!

[@mookamelimoeketsi3177]

Is the minimum pass score of 70% a minimum of 70% per section (i.e Ethics, Devs, Quants) or is according to weighting (i.e Ethics being 15%) and so on... Factoring in 2021, the minimum pass score is probably 75%

[@BrunoKSahatdjian]

Hi Mark, Is there a way to know in which score band I stand? Or only visual? The score band was a god metric to gauge my evolution, but now I´m a little bit lost without this metric
