Master the CFA® Level III
morning essay
with Level Three Key
(the ideal supplement)
No more ambiguity
“How exactly should I answer the CFA Level III morning essays?”
You’ve learned so much content, but how should you put it on paper? Write too little and lose points for not answering thoroughly enough. Write too much and waste valuable time
In this course, I’ll teach you four answer structures to use for the four question formats
- Follow my structures and you’ll be able to garner all available points without wasting a word
“How does scoring work?”
This is a standardized test, which means there’s an objective scoring system
I break down and explain this scoring system for you
- After you learn the scoring system, you’ll know exactly how to craft your answers
“How do I know I’m practicing correctly?”
- You need feedback. You need an answer key. CFA Institute’s guideline answers are not acceptable on the actual exam
I provide answer keys, with grading, for 12 actual past CFA Institute morning session exams (2007 – 2018), organized by subject matter, covering over 100 questions. This way, you are able to grade yourself
You can also purchase a live grading service for one past CFA Institute morning session exam of your choice
Practice doesn’t make perfect – practice makes permanent. So make sure you’re practicing correctly

About Me
I know how to take tests. I scored in the 90th percentile on the CFA Level III exam and over 70% on every single topic on the CFA Level I and II exams, and earned the CFA Charter after three consecutive years. (Before the CFA exam, I scored in the 99th percentile on the SAT I, SAT II, and GMAT®).
What’s my secret? Deliberate practice. This obviously requires an answer key for feedback. I’ve found the problem candidates encounter on the CFA Level III essay is that they have no answer key, and thus no mechanism for feedback. So, I’ve decided to provide one in this program, Level Three Key.
I’ve also found the professional instruction on how to answer the essay questions far too generalized and open to interpretation. I believe in understanding the system, and then finding the optimal solution. This is why I’ve broken down the scoring system and developed answer structures that are simple and repeatable, so you can easily apply them yourself.
Best,
Alex, CFA
Customer Reviews
Hey, I would like to thank you for building that essay question course! I failed level 3 last year, but with the help of your course, I was able to clear level 3 this year with almost 90 percentile!
- Gaurav, India
I was looking for guidelines on how to answer the questions as well as examples in practice. This is especially true as the CFAI guideline answers are not in the format candidates should answer the question. I think your videos are brilliant and really give an insight into what the examiners are looking for. I love the way the keys are structured by topic.
- James, Ireland
Your guide provides the Level 3 candidate with a map that helps to point in the right direction in preparing for the essay portion of the exam. It encompasses a lot of tips in a more methodical way of approaching the essay. I feel like you've armed me with a rocket launcher. I will highly recommend your course to any L3 candidate. Thanks again.

I passed Level 3 this year due to the AM preparation provided in this course. I was just under the 90th percentile on the essay section but on the prior attempt in 2018 I was in the bottom 10%. I highly recommend this course to any Level 3 candidate.
Thankfully I passed! Thank you so much for your help.

Wow, amazing techniques to tackle level 3 exam!
Feeling much more confident about passing Level 3 exam this time around. This covers the details that other exam prep courses have lacked. I would highly recommend this to L3 candidates because this course taught lessons that are not available elsewhere.
AceLevel3 helped me study quickly and efficiently which is important as I have a full time job. Highly recommended
This course was a compass out of the wilderness for me. The tools that I learned gave me a new confidence around the morning essays, and I have gone from dreading the upcoming exam to really looking forward to it. Thanks Alex, for creating this invaluable program.
This course has been an immense help to my preparations for L3. Now entering crunch time for June I have been nervous about the essay section but this material has been a game changer. Alex's system provides a very clear and methodical approach that cuts out silly time wasting mistakes you may not have even realized you were making. Thank you!
There is simply nothing like this course out there. It takes the hardest part of the CFA and gives you a way to conquer it. Thank you!!!
Alex is a great teacher with clear thought process and a vision of big picture. Not only he can explain complex subjects using simple, straight forward language, he also is skilled in conquering exams with useful/smart tactics. L3 is challenging and I have learned so much from his review session and methodologies. I’d highly recommend this course to anyone who’s studying for CFA! Thanks Alex!
The review session with Alex was very insightful and provided me with new perspectives and understanding of the CFA L3 A.M challenge and how best to approach the questions. I would definitely recommend this course as part of any L3 review strategy.
