I've been busy trying to get through the L2 content for longer than a year now. Almost a year and a half. Trying to review all of what I have done in 28 days is really tough. I think having three months to review is more realistic. Luckily I chose to write in August for this reason.

Can't agree more, to be honest ... I don't have time for review right now coz of job and my head is an absolute mess, I will only be able to take a week off before exam while I was able to take 2 a year ago, I'm so soooo gonna fail it, haha, what a disaster ...

@@wowZhenek yeah I’m going to sit but there no way I could keep up that sleep deprivation and study grind from December. It’s so incredibly unethical how they said the Dec exams would happen, and then only gave a 3 week notice. I wasted the whole fall preparing.

@@davidbrunik Can't say whether I am ready or not, but I completely understand you guys. I study for level 2 from September 2019 till march of 2020, 2.5 to 3 hrs. a day on average. Cancellation of the exam made me lose my momentum and when I went back to study this January, it took a big toll on me (sometimes having to sleep by 4 am) just to get thing back to where they where at. I knew the concept, but because it is multiple choice, the exact formulas and answers is what they want. I still have to practice online and haven't started.

I would have demolished Level II had it been held in my jurisdiction in December 2020. I had just finished learning *literally* the last page of unlearnt material the night before the cancellation on Oct 7 or whenever it was...okay fine, I took a well-earned breather through Christmas and the start of the year after literal non-stop studying from January to October. Aimed to re-start on Mar 1, tons of time, 3 months (as I am sitting on June 1) Then my apartment flooded on Feb 26 and I wasn’t able to return home until April 5. Now instead of dominating every aspect of it with two months to go, answering 80% correct on the CFAI question bank as I was back then, I’m trying to piece together everything in a mad scramble. I still think I will, but this roller coaster has been literally from one extreme to the other, and I CANNOT WAIT to put it behind me. Failing after all this time I’ve had to prepare would be a disgrace.

I think I got my scheduled CBT time changed from 9am to 3pm by CFA, still on the same day though. Received mail from them about slot confirmation a few days back. Clearly remembered I chose 9am session, but now happier with the change they've done for me.

Based on personal experience consistent study for 6 months and with 14 days full time review full time the exam is manageable from review perspective 5 days review give 2 mocks on day 6 again review next 5 days give another 2 mocks on day 6. Consolidate in the remaining 2 days

When you did the calculation for how many vignettes there will be on each half of the exam you assumed all 10 topics will be covered in each half. That doesn’t appear to be the case. The AM mock A on CFAI doesn’t have a vignette on Econ or Derivatives for example. So I think rather the entire exam of 88 questions should be viewed entirely not just each half.

my level 2 exam was cancelled twice since june 2020 and now i'm registered for the September 2 date. a lot has changed for the exam and i'm honestly not up to date with how the exam format is like and number of questions and so on. so can you please answer the following: 1) in regards to the, 88 questions in total - isn't this much less than pre-covid exams? i might be wrong but wasn't it 120 questions in the past? 2) is there a way to see what a computer based exam looks like (as in the format)? because i need to practice based on that format 3) also, can you please explain again about vignette questions, "i didn't get it" haha.. do you mean the item set questions will now either be 4 set question or 6 set question? please answer these question because i'm currently reviewing the entire curriculum but completely lost in regards to the updates of the exam. thanks in advance!

I just purchased the level 2 package on your website. I realized it doesn’t have the download button that the level 1 had. This is very difficult for me to navigate because the volume on the streamed content is very low. It is also inconvenient because I have to have internet access at all times to use your videos.
