Guys,
When can I register for the Level 2 2011...? Am thinking to start preparing early...作者: giants2010 时间: 2011-7-11 15:28
You don't want to start way too early dude. I'd say 4 month max.作者: chaojimali 时间: 2011-7-11 15:28
No no.. starting early is good.. then you would have time to revise!! I didn't and wished I had started earlier!作者: Rasec 时间: 2011-7-11 15:28
Or if let say I were to start now, can I just use my fren's textbook in Jun 2010? would there be lots of difference with the materials that I'm gonna receive later on?作者: iteracom 时间: 2011-7-11 15:28
You can certainly use your friends book on Ethics, Equity, Fixed Income, Derivative Financial Reporting?imaybe, they tend to make noticable changes in this part very couple of years).
let me say this, you can certainly use 2010's text book for next year.
my suggestion is, know the big picture first, don't get into too much details till you get your 2011's book. say, for equity part, know how many different kinds of models are there, when you get your books, study into the details.
and spend your time on fixed income. because it takes a lot of time to get familiar with the concepts.
they will make some minor changes here and there, but i say within 10%.
also, be aware that they may not change the text, but they ll revise the LOS. that is, with the same textbook, they may require the understanding of different concepts or same concepts at diffent level.作者: Pegasus2008 时间: 2011-7-11 15:28

This dude knows, unless you're talking about just casually reading now and then going hard Nov or Dec to April and then reviewing hard for two months.
If you're not married, bang a bunch of hoes who would definitely fail the ethics section - you can study come winter.
