Try a Sample Question
from Exam P
Easy
X ~ Beta(3, 2). Find E[X].
🎉
Correct Answer: B
Solution
B is correct.
For Beta(α,β): E[X] = α/(α+β) = 3+23 = 53.
from CFP
Medium
Financial self-efficacy refers to which of the following?
🎉
Correct Answer: C
Solution
C is correct.
Financial self-efficacy refers to an individual's confidence in their own ability to successfully manage their finances and achieve financial goals. It is rooted in Bandura's broader concept of self-efficacy and reflects perceived competence rather than actual knowledge or wealth.
from CPA FAR
Hard
In Year 1 a company extracts 120,000 tons of ore at a depletion rate of $6 per ton and sells 100,000 of those tons. How much of the Year 1 depletion reaches cost of goods sold?
🎉
Correct Answer: A
Solution
A is correct.
Depletion attaches to extracted units and follows them into inventory, reaching cost of goods sold only as those units are sold.
| Item | Amount | Why | |---|---|---| | Depletion on units extracted | $720,000 | 120,000 tons x $6 | | Stays in inventory (unsold) | ($120,000) | 20,000 tons x $6 | | **Depletion in COGS** | **$600,000** | 100,000 tons sold x $6 |
The $120,000 on the 20,000 unsold tons remains in inventory until those tons are sold.
No catch. The 70% you need to pass (42,000+ practice questions with detailed solutions, 1000+ lessons, formula sheets, mixed practice, and readiness tracking) is free forever across 39 professional exams. No trial period, no credit card. The remaining 30% (timed mock exams, flashcards, performance analytics, personalized study plan) unlocks when you become a Fellow.
What does the $79 Fellow tier unlock?
Fellow is $39 per month or $79 per quarter, per track, and the $199 annual is Fellow Plus. It unlocks timed mock exams with weighted scoring, spaced-repetition flashcards built on memory science from cognitive psychology, topic-level practice for drilling weak areas, performance analytics by topic and difficulty, and a personalized study plan that adapts to your exam date. Everything else stays free.
How do you charge $79 when Kaplan and Becker charge $1,000+?
Traditional prep providers bundle questions, lessons, mocks, flashcards, and analytics into one $500 to $3,500 fee, paid upfront. FreeFellow keeps the question bank, written solutions, and lessons free forever and charges only for deeper study tools. Coaching Actuaries runs $200 to $400 per exam, Kaplan Schweser $500 to $1,200 per CFA level, Becker $2,000 to $3,500 for CPA, Dalton $1,500 to $2,300 for CFP. Fellow at $79 per quarter is a small fraction of the cost.
What exams does FreeFellow cover?
FreeFellow covers 39 professional exams: SOA actuarial (P, FM, FAM, SRM, ALTAM, ASTAM), CAS actuarial (MAS-I, MAS-II), CFA Levels I through III (all three Level III pathways), the CFP exam, CPA sections (AUD, FAR, REG, BAR, ISC, TCP), CAIA Levels I and II, GARP FRM (Parts I and II), FINRA/NASAA securities licensing (SIE, Series 7, Series 79, Series 63, Series 65, Series 66), IRS Enrolled Agent (SEE Parts 1, 2, 3), and IMA CMA (Parts 1 and 2).
How many practice questions does FreeFellow have?
FreeFellow currently has 42,000+ practice questions across 39 exams, each with a detailed step-by-step solution. Questions span three difficulty levels and are aligned to the 2026 exam syllabi. The question bank is updated regularly.
Does FreeFellow have study lessons?
Yes. FreeFellow includes 1000+ comprehensive text lessons across multiple exams, all free. Lessons cover key concepts with worked examples, figures, and formulas. They are designed to build your conceptual foundation before you move to question practice.
Who writes the questions?
Questions are written by credentialed professionals (FSA, CFA, CPA, CFP, CAIA) and reviewed for accuracy. FreeFellow's founder, Jeffrey Ting, FSA, CFA, oversees content quality. All questions are original and aligned to the current exam syllabus for each certification. FreeFellow is a CFA Institute Prep Provider.
Does FreeFellow use AI?
Yes, as a feature, not the headline. The core of FreeFellow is its free, comprehensive question banks and lessons; AI adds two conveniences: (1) on every constructed-response item, FreeFellow generates a structured copy-to-AI prompt (scenario, question, your answer, the official rubric, and a reference solution) that you paste into your own ChatGPT or Claude for self-graded feedback at zero cost; (2) paid members get instant AI grading on constructed-response essays (currently CFA Level III, expanding; five a day on Fellow, uncapped on Fellow Plus) with a per-criterion verdict against the official rubric. The AI grading runs on Anthropic's Claude with prompt caching for efficiency, and the rubric is the official one published by the credential issuer. FreeFellow does not invent grading criteria.
How does AI grading for constructed-response essays work?
Fellow members can submit a constructed-response essay and receive an instant grade from Claude (Anthropic's AI) against the official rubric used by the credential issuer. The grader returns a per-criterion score breakdown and qualitative notes on what is strong and what is missing. The reference solution stays server-side and is never shown to the candidate during grading. AI grading is currently live for CFA Level III essays (5 essays across the three Level III pathways: Portfolio Management, Private Wealth, and Private Markets). It is expandable to other essay-bearing sections. Free-tier candidates can use the copy-to-AI prompt builder to grade essays in their own ChatGPT or Claude for free.
About FreeFellow
Jeffrey Ting
FSA, CFA · Founder
FreeFellow was built by Jeffrey Ting, a credentialed actuary and CFA charterholder who passed thirteen of the hardest exams in finance on the first attempt, and paid four-figure prep fees for every one. The learning itself was always free. The price was a moat.
So he started writing his own questions, then lessons, then mock exams, until it grew into a full prep platform covering 35 finance credentials with more than 40,000 original practice questions. The name says exactly what it is: the question bank is free, and Fellow is what you become once you pass.
01
Cost shouldn't decide who gets in.
The exam is a fair gate. A four-figure prep course is not. FreeFellow takes the second gate down, so the exam is the only one left.
02
Free should mean free.
No trial clock, no email gate, no credit card. The question bank, worked solutions, lessons, and readiness score stay free, and they are enough to pass.
03
Built by someone who sat where you sit.
He paid for the big-name courses, found nothing he respected, and built the prep he wished had existed. Not a marketing team that has never sat an exam.
