Examiner Insight
“Ethics is the highest-weighted topic and the most commonly failed. Candidates who master the Standards of Professional Conduct before touching Portfolio Management consistently outperform those who leave Ethics to the end. Do 20 Ethics questions daily from week one.”
The CFA Level 1 pass rate is approximately 41–52% per sitting. The CFA Institute sets the Minimum Passing Score (MPS) after each exam based on candidate performance. SGrade maps your practice results to the MPS range.
The CFA Level 1 exam has 180 questions across two 2 hour 15 minute sessions (90 questions each). All questions are multiple choice with three options: A, B, and C.
The CFA Institute recommends 300+ hours of study. Most successful candidates study 4–6 months. The most effective approach is topic-by-topic drilling followed by mock exams in the final 4 weeks.
Financial Statement Analysis (FSA) and Fixed Income are consistently rated the hardest by candidates. FSA is also the most heavily weighted alongside Ethics. Build FSA fluency early — it compounds into Level 2.
