In none of the simulated exams could I get more than 65% in the FRA, in fact, in some I even scored less than 55%. This situation is killing me, I have 13 hours left to take the exam. In other words, you don't need to get more than 70% on everything to pass it. Some say you can get as little as 65%, or even 63%.You don't even need to get more than 51% on everything to pass it.
It seems that you can achieve less than 50% in three (or perhaps four) subjects, but you will probably have to compensate for this figure with more than 70% in at least three subjects and between 51 and 70% in the rest. However, if you get an average of 70% in all subjects, you're sure to celebrate when you get the results. However, in terms of the more recent past, it is possible that the MPS of the level 1 CFA will fall again. Despite all the talk about the low passing rate of the last CFA exams being due to delays during the pandemic, February's level I pass rate was still miserable from a historical perspective.
I passed level 1 and never exceeded 65% in a simulation and I have friends who passed level 2 and never exceeded 65% in a simulation. If you plan to take another level (or the same) of the CFA Program exam in the future, knowing how your score has been compared on various topics on this exam can help you focus your future studies for the next exam. If the MPS of level II is increasing, 300Hours believes that the MPS of level III has fallen (suggesting that the exams are more difficult than they used to be).). The CFA Institute uses something known as the “Angoff Standard-Setting Method” to determine passing rates for the CFA exam.
The implication, therefore, is that CFA level I exams recently became more difficult and then became a little easier again. While the CFA Institute does not disclose anything regarding their passing scores, there are some indications that the MPS of level 1 CFA may be increasing. Level 3 of the CFA is a little different from other levels, so approval rates are very stable and consistently higher than those of the rest.
