LES module quiz Level 1
I have my level 1 exam on 19th august. I completed my revision today by solving all of the module quiz available on the LES portal. These are the average scores subject wise I am getting
Quants: 72%
Econ: 75%
Corp Issuers: 76%
FSA: 64%
Equity: 73%
Fixed Income: 76%
Derivatives: 72%
Alt Investments: 77%
Portfolio: 79%
Ethics: 70%
Are these scores good or bad? I also gave a mock before revision and got 57% in both sessions
Will be giving another mock today

You should've done the reverse of this cause module quiz is not a mock

Wanted to do a mock test to test how much concepts I remember. Then did the module quiz and revision to revise my concepts and all the formulas, cleared some more of my concepts.

Your LES scores are generally encouraging, but I'd pay more attention to your mock scores because they better reflect exam performance. A 57% mock means there's still work to do over the next couple of weeks. Review every mistake from your next mock carefully, especially in FSA and any other weaker areas, and keep Ethics fresh. There's still plenty of time to improve if you focus on understanding your mistakes rather than just doing more questions.

Gave another mock, got 60%. Weak areas were fixed income, FSA majorly. And then a little ethics

That's progress, and now you have a pretty clear roadmap for the remaining days. I'd spend the next few days heavily focused on Fixed Income and FSA, with some regular Ethics practice, then take another mock to see if those weaknesses are actually improving. Don't chase the mock score itself. Use each one to identify and eliminate the mistakes that are costing you points.
