当你第一次认真做一次三级模考题的时候，你就会发现三级跟以往两级的CFA考试在考察难点上有了较大的提升。下面中国CFA考试网整理关于CFA官网对于三级考试的一些说明，为了保证原文的可读性，没有特别翻译。

 

　　Exam Structure and  Timing （CFA三级考试结构和时间安排）

 

　　The Level III exam consists of item set and constructed response (essay) questions:

 

　　Morning session: Constructed response (essay) questions (usually between 8 and 12 questions, each with several subparts) with a maximum of 180 points. (The point value for each question is provided in the exam book.)

 

　　Afternoon session: 10 item set questions .

　　Exam Question Format （CFA三级考试试题格式）

 

　　When you prepare for the Level III exam, remember to review the Level II item set question details.

 

　　Constructed Response (Essay) Questions

 

　　Each essay question has two or more parts (A, B, etc.) and one or both of the following types of designated answer pages:

 

　　One type of answer page is an unlined page, clearly labeled for that question part. You are free to write your response as needed on that page.

 

　　The other type of answer page has a structured set of boxes. The boxes are clearly labeled for that question part and provide a visual structure to guide you in writing your responses.

 

　　Your Essay Exam Book（关于论文考试答题卡）

 

　　Read and follow the instructions on the front cover and throughout the exam book.

 

　　Page one of the exam book lists all the questions on the exam as well as the topic and the minutes allocated for each question.

 

　　The heading where a question begins states the number of parts in that question and the total number of minutes allocated. For example: “Question 2 has two parts (A, B) for a total of 18 minutes”

 

　　Instructions in bold print immediately following the question direct you to the designated answer page for each question part. For example: "Answer 2A on page 17”.

 

　　Exam Grading and Results (关于CFA三级考试通过率和成绩公布)

 

　　Level III exam results are available within 90 days following your exam.

 

　　有的考生反应说CFA三级考试难度最大，不妨先来看一下：

 

　　三级在知识的广度和生僻程度上较一级和二级上升较多，其所涉及的诸如行为金融，个人和机构投资者，估值，衍生品，业绩评估，GIPS等的专业性都较强。而且大部分知识点仅停留在“理解”层面是绝对不够的，更多的是要求考生如何去运用来解决实际问题。加之所有内容所涉及的知识点很碎，涉及的一些金融产品又较为复杂，相应的公式亦相对繁琐。

 

　　CFA三级通过考生的调查报告显示三级备考通过平均时长335小时，由于三级考试难度较大，建议长线复习，才能更好的保证通过。如果你准备报名三级考试，请付出足够的时间和精力去复习和准备（ps，有考生反馈参加培训是三级通过的高效率的必备利器），当然如果通过CFA三级收益也是巨大的。
