如何考前复习FRM二级考试？

来源：高顿网校 2014-11-26

　　1. Free Practice Exams Provided by GARP

　　http://www.garp.org/frm/study-center/practice-exams.aspx

　　Candidates are free to download practice exams dated from 2010 to 2014 provided by GARP. However the quality and value are in question. In contrast to real exam, practice exams are easier, less roundabout, and shorter in length. Do not overestimate their value otherwise you may get dumbstruck on the exam site.

　　2. FRM Part II Schweser Practice Exams

　　http://www.schweser.com/frm/part-2/study-packages/essential/

　　Schweser FRM Practice Exams contain two sets of mock tests. I heard many FRM instructors gave negative comments on this book but I don';t know why. In my point, this book is one of the best prep materials and second only to Official FRM Part II Books. Questions in this book are 70% similar to real exam questions in style, length and difficulty. I strongly recommend candidates to choose this book.

　　3. Official FRM Part II Books

　　http://www.garpdigitallibrary.org/display/product.asp?pid=2498

　　Official FRM Part II Books are a bundle of four books compiled by GARP. GARP did not write the books themselves. Instead, GARP selected more than 30 classical financial books and excerpted essential chapters from these books. The strengths of Official FRM Part II Books are:

　　The only readings recommended by GARP so they are trust worthy;

　　Updated every year with the newest exam syllabus;

　　The best helper to candidates. FRM is a professional qualification test and aims not at outsiders. Questions originate from daily financial risk control work. If a candidate has no relevant work experience or modeling experience, he may stumble at every step on the testing room. A good news is Official FRM Part II Books can bridge this gap. Famous for her thickness and long-drawn documents, official books explain every knowledge point in most details and are believed to give candidates an all-in-one guide.

　　Weaknesses:

　　Very thick and 80 hours more or less to cover;

　　Some chapters are too lengthy and sophisticated to understand;

　　Some knowledge points never showed up in real exams but still take many pages;

　　Some chapters are excerpted from academic papers without being rewritten and not easy to interpret.

　　4. FRM Part II SchweserNotes

　　http://www.schweser.com/frm/part-2/study-packages/essential/

　　SchweserNotes are the abridged edition of Official FRM Part II Books. Schweser is renowned for her CFA notes but FRM notes are disappointing. Concept Checkers (questions at the end of each chapter) are na?ve and of little value. "Past FRM Exam Questions" section at the end of each book are not past questions whatsoever. They are in fact a print version of "Free Practice Exams" that you can download from GARP website. If you have decided to focus on the "GARP Practice Exams", you can totally skip this section in SchweserNotes.

　　Another blame is that if you prepare the test solely relying on SchweserNotes, you will find the exam questions beyond your control. In the first 30 minutes of the test, you will feel uncomfortable as the real questions stray such a long way from the contents you have learnt in SchweserNotes. After the tough time, you will gradually adapt to it.

　　The final blame is that SchweserNotes fail to give each knowledge point a clear-cut explanation. Many details are simplified and processes are omitted in exchange for a thinner book. For a candidate whose basic knowledge is weak, s/he may feel at a loss in the process of reading.

　　5. Financial Risk Manager Handbook

　　The Handbook is nicknamed "The Bible" by financial risk control guys. It was written by Philippe Jorion in association with GARP so that the book is systematic and authoritative. In FRM Part I test, a candidate can pass the exam with decent results only by reading this book. But in Part II test, a sole reliance on Handbook is dangerous. The reasons are:

　　The latest version of the Handbook was published on December 28, 2010 so that it fails to reflect the current exam syllabus. Only 60%-70% of testing points are covered in this book.

　　The Handbook is concise and more suitable for a reader with solid financial knowledge.

　　6. Current Issues in Financial Markets

　　"Current Issues" are updated every year but excluded by Official FRM Part II Books due to the publication timing. GARP provides PDF papers for free downloading but their length outweighs their corresponding scores in FRM exam. If candidates haven';t enough time they can turn to SchweserNotes since SchweserNotes contain all the current issues and have them organized in shorter and comprehensible passages.
