2019 CFA Level II CFA Exam Structure（2019年CFA二级考试形式和结构）
Exam Structure and Timing（考试结构和时间安排）
The Level II exam has a total of 20 item set questions:
Morning session:10 item set questions[上午考试部分内容：10个道案例问题]
Afternoon session:10 item set questions[下午午考试部分内容：10个道案例问题]
On the Level II exam,you will have a total of 120 items(20 vignettes with 6 items each)compared to 240 multiple choice items on the Level I exam.[在二级考试中，您将共有120个项目问题（20道题，每个项目6个问题），而一级考试中有240道题。]
The Level II exam is worth 360 points,corresponding to the number of minutes on the exam.The 120 Level II items are equally weighted,3 points each,with no penalty for incorrect answers.
On the Level II(and III)exams,some topics are covered in the morning session only and other topics are covered in the afternoon session only.
Exam Question Format（考试问题格式）
When you prepare for the Level II exam,remember to review the Level I question format details for multiple choice questions.This same question construction applies to the multiple choices presented in item sets.
Item Set Format
Item sets are sometimes called“mini-cases.”Each item set on the CFA exam consists of a vignette(or case statement)and six multiple choice items(questions).
The length of a vignette ranges from about 1 page to 2.5 pages.The average length of the vignettes on the exam is about 1.5 pages.The longer vignettes are those that include several tables of information,such as for a financial statement analysis,statistics,or fixed-income item set.
The six multiple choice items in each item set can only be answered based on the information in the vignette.Hence,the items are not free-standing(as in Level I),but are drawn from the vignette.You will need to read the vignette before answering the items,and you will need to refer back to the vignette for information.The six multiple choice items can be answered independently of each other,but they do require information provided in the vignette.
Examples of Level II Exam Questions（二级考试问题的样例）
See some examples of Level II questions below,but remember that the exam is based on the current curriculum.You can expect to see similar questions in terms of structure,format and level of difficulty,but don't expect to see the same questions repeated on future exams.
