I got a 64% on the first full CFAI mock for level 2. To people who took it and passed (esp in the last year), do you think this is high enough to pass? Sitting for it in 20 days

I think it’s a good score. It’s great you’re taking mock exams in advance and have time to take multiple ones. I would aim for giving more mock exams and making sure you’re confident in correctly answering both (your right and wrong) responses before you sit for the exam.

Do you think it’s high enough to pass? I got abysmal scores on mm - only the first was 64, the rest barely broke 50. I am aiming to do ten mocks but my total average right now across 4 mocks is 57 (64, 49, 51, 64)

Don’t forget to prioritize ethics. I believe the rule is, if you scored +70% overall but did poor in ethics (I’m making this up I’m assuming less than 50% is a poor ethics score) then you will fail. And the reverse is true.

I usually do well in ethics. I got 67% on this exam - 75% first half and 50% second half but I’ll work on this

Any input on employers is appreciated!

I have also recently finished my Masters in HR Management, so I wanted to jump on here and see if anyone has any tips for landing a new role?
