Your CFA® exam 101
All your questions about the CFA® exam have an answer right here.
The facts in brief
-
Length
Level I CFA® exam takes place over one day, split between a three-hour morning session and a three-hour afternoon session: you must attend both to complete it.
-
Content
You will be asked a total of 240 MCQs covering all topics, split equally between the morning & afternoon sessions. Each of these is either a question, a statement, and/or table with a choice of three answers: A, B, or C.
-

The facts in brief
-
Length
The Level II CFA® exam takes place over one day split into a three-hour morning session and a three-hour afternoon session.
-
Content
You will be tested on a total of 20 item sets, split equally between the morning & afternoon sessions. Each of these 20 item sets contains six items (MCQs), thus giving you a total of 120 items; each of these items is worth three points, leading to a possible maximum total of 360 points for the entire Level II exam.
-
Morgan Tip
Each item set consists of a vignette (case statement) and six MCQs. The information contained in the vignette is essential to answering the six MCQs, so should be read first and referred back to as you go through the questions.
The facts in brief
-
Length
The Level III CFA® exam takes place over one day consisting of a morning session and an afternoon session.
-
Content
The morning session includes between 8 and 12 questions that require a constructed response (essay), with a maximum total of 180 points. In the afternoon session you will be asked to answer 10 item set questions, whose structure you first encountered in Level II.
-
Morgan Tip
There are 2 types of essay questions: the first will ask you to write your answers on the lined pages, the second will ask you to write your answers in a template. Since questions can have anything from 1 to 8 sub-parts, within any 1 question you find a mix of these 2 question styles. Always make sure you read the question thoroughly & follow directions (on the page heading above it).
