◎ Strategy for passing the Derivatives Investment Advisor Exam

1.
Choosing the right subject for you: Strategies to achieve 75-85 points
It is important to select strategic subjects among derivatives, risk management, professional ethics, and derivatives regulations, and develop a study strategy to study for high scores in those subjects and average scores in subjects that seem difficult.


2.
Learning considering the frequency of questions
The exam questions for the Derivatives Investment Advisory Certification are the most difficult of the three advisory certifications, and the curriculum covers a wide range of topics.
However, since the types of questions do not change much, it is important to focus on studying the parts that are repeatedly tested.


3.
Thorough problem analysis
Since its founding in 2003, IPASS Korea has been dedicated to financial education.
Also, since the Capital Market Act came into effect in 2009, it has been more than 10 years
There is a collection of expected exam questions.
This book analyzes expected exam questions carefully to help you reach the passing score.


4.
The learning period is approximately 2 to 3 weeks.
Since the derivatives investment advisory exam is for those with financial experience, most of the candidates have experience studying for financial qualifications.
If you have obtained a financial qualification within the last 6 months, we recommend that you study intensively for about 2 weeks. If not, you must study intensively for at least 3 weeks.
Especially in the derivatives sector, the terminology and concepts are unfamiliar, so it takes time to get used to them.

5.
It is better to use a professional training institution rather than self-study.
Among the financial certifications, it is the most voluminous and the analysis and weighting of the questions are important, so we recommend taking classes at a specialized institution.
That's the shortcut to passing.
