Path of least resistance

Hi,

I am still debating whether to sit for Level II or not. I gave Level 1 in June and cleared in first attempt with good scores across the board. However, it was lot of reading and and huge time investment. (May be because I didn't know what to expect and how prioritize and study). Mostly used the official CFA guides but also refereed to Elan guides later.

I want to take up level 2 but I don't want to spend too much time. I am wondering what is the path of least resistance for successfully completing level 2?

If I sign up for Stalla Guides with the instructor led weekend courses, will that make the reading material and time investment more mangeable (like 4 months).

Any insights or thoughts on this?

Cheers,

What do you consider a "huge" time investment? Anyway, if you want efficiency, cross CFAI textbooks off immediately. Don't even open the box. Get Schweser or some other supplementary notes. Focus on the summary tables.

Not sure about the classes. Maybe it helps (?). From my experience, L2 material is all about memorizing accounting rules though. I don't think I would have benefited from going through it with an instructor. Everyone is different though.

I second Thommo77's statement

def look into the schweser practice exam booklets, i used those heavily for the month before my level 1 and i def think i owe my pass to those two books.

I agree with thommo77. Also, u need a lot of practice to get through the L2 exam. The volume is huge and it needs a lot more effort for L2 prep compared to L1.
