What the $69 covers
Access and terms
| Price | $69 in US dollars. One payment, no subscription. |
| What is included | A 100 question mock examination over 3 hours in the vignette format with two attempts, the VCII CFA Level II Handbook, formula Smart Sheets, and curated resources across Equity, Financial Reporting and Analysis, Portfolio Management and the rest of the curriculum. |
| Why two attempts | The first tells you where you stand. The second, taken after you have diagnosed each wrong answer, tells you whether the fix worked. A single attempt gives you a score and no feedback loop. |
| Access | 12 months from the date of purchase. Self paced, no cohort dates. Long enough to cover a deferral or a retake without buying again. |
| Refund | A full refund within seven days of purchase, while the pack is unused. Starting a mock examination ends the refund window. Write to support@vciinstitute.org. |
| What this is | A practice and diagnostic pack, for the phase after you have worked through the curriculum. Priced as a complement to a teaching provider, not as a replacement for one. |
| What this is not | Not a teaching course, not a certification, and not affiliated with or endorsed by the CFA Institute. CFA is a trademark owned by the CFA Institute. |

The diagnostic worth more than another hundred questions
For every question you get wrong, decide which of three things happened. You did not know the material. You knew it and misread the vignette. Or you knew it and ran out of time.
Those are three different problems with three different fixes, and most candidates treat all three as the first one. Revising a topic only helps in one of the three cases, and it is not the most common one.
No pass guarantee. Nobody outside the CFA Institute can promise a result, and a pass guarantee is insurance priced into tuition that every buyer pays for whether they claim on it or not.
What this pack does is put you under vignette conditions early enough to change how you prepare, while there is still time for that change to matter.
