I have finished solving all the end of reading questions in the curriculum and now I am half way through solving sample questions. some sample qs are very tough and never showed up on end of reading questions especially the sample ones in reading 18 on factor model variance and covariance. if it's in the book then i assume it's a fair game. I can solve most of the questions but my problem lies in solving ips. To help me with ips section, both individual and institutional i am planning on solving ips questions in the practice exams. I have more than 10 mock exams so i will use these to solve ips. the ips questions in the curriculum (EOR and sample qs) are too simple and straight forward. I have no trouble solving these. the ips questions in the mocks are totally different animals requiring all kinds of calculations and thinking with different taxes and time period.
my plan is to review my "super" condensed note twice a week and solve sample qs by end of next week then jump straight to mock exams and solving ips questions from old mocks. with the old mocks i won't take the entire exam as nyssa instructor said, some of the sections and questions in the old mock may not be relevant anymore. I need to master ips and the only way is to practice like a maniac.
happy saturday morning:)
