As the exam is probably set in stone by now (i.e., nothing we write here will cause the exam to change in a week), I would like candidates to make their guesses as to what topics will be asked of in the 14 written-answer questions.
This is partially for those having trouble guessing what to study for the final week, and partially as a game. No, I'm not being facetious due to my insistence that guessing doesn't help. But, I'm open to the possibility of guessing being a good strategy as long as detractors can be open to the possibility that it is no help at all.
Of course this will not be helpful if every possible topic is posted, with equal frequency.
I do suggest not posting all of JAM's suggestions, as he makes his predictions as a favor to the paying seminar attendee and, not the rest of us rabble.
And I do suggest that anyone with knowledge about the exam not contribute either truly or falsely. Thank you.
Do note that no one (especially not I) is responsible for anyone's use or misuse of this information.
I'll start:
Foreign currency interest rate swaps.
Vasicek, similar to last year's question.
