How to Use Mock Exams
Four simple steps to turn mock exams into real exam-day results.
Take a baseline mock
Around 8 weeks out, sit a full mock under real conditions — timed, no pausing, no notes — to see where you stand.
Review every question
Go through each answer — including the ones you got right — and note the concepts you need to revisit.
Target weak areas
Identify your lowest-scoring topics, study them, then take another mock every 1-2 weeks to measure improvement.
Final mock, 1 week out
Sit one last full mock to lock in timing and build confidence. Review only your weak spots before exam day.
What Your Score Means
Target 70%+ on our mocks. Most candidates who score 65%+ pass the real exam.
Below 50%
Significant concept gaps. Focus on understanding core material before more mocks. Use topic-based practice questions.
50-65%
Making progress but need more work. Target weak topics and keep practicing. Schedule regular mocks to track improvement.
65-75%
Good shape. The estimated pass mark is ~70%. Focus on turning weak areas into strengths and keep building consistency.
Above 75%
Excellent. Maintain your routine, review weak spots, and build time management confidence with full-length mocks.
Note: Mock scores are indicators, not guarantees. The actual CFA exam may feel different under pressure. Aim to score consistently above 70% to build a comfortable margin.
