![]() I thought that this exam was way easier than the MFE March sitting where I made a 5. I spent most of my studying time on the new material and terms. Felt confident on around 26 problems and did not do any practice exams on ADAPT. Did around 90 quizzes total though. Each quiz had anywhere between 4 to 7 questions each with around a EL 4 to 5 difficulty. Finished the exam with an hour left and spent the hour trying to solve the 4 problems I wasn't sure on.

I was not tested at all on what was on the study notes with the exception of exotic options. I was very surprised by this. I also agree about the odd ball questions. I am in the same boat as you. |

I only had 15 minutes left to do the 5 problems I wasn't sure of, but 4 of them were conceptual, not computational. I just wish I knew my score already!

The fact that there were more conceptual questions probably added to the fact that I felt it was easier. Those questions were based on me knowing the concept or not. It's not like I had to spend 5+ minutes doing calculations. I got to use that time saved doing the calculation intensive old MFE portions. |

![]() Since the exam window is officially over (last sitting was on Wednesday), did anyone else get a question with Brownian Motion? I know that Brownian Motion was supposed to be removed from MFE/IFM. It was an old topic before the 2017 change. I was surprised I got a question with that.

![]() Might not have been defective. I just didn't know what Brownian Motion was in general. It said something like "the Brownian Motion of the logarithm..." then listed a value. It was one of the variables given, but it wasn't the whole point of the question.
