People study with old materials and pass. Personally, I think that as the LOS change, you should put a new set of study materials high on your list of things to do with money. I'm in the minority here (I think) but your old study materials will be like 90% useful and repeated in the next set so buy a set from a different company the second time around. That way you have two different explanations of something.
Edit: Oh yes, and to help keep AF free, try to buy your study products from AF sponsors.

If you fail level I in june you will not get new books to retake it in december the same year - cause it would still be the same curriculum. So you only pay around 500$ to retake (not sure about the exact amount).
If you fail in dec then you will need new books for june next year. You have to pay for them and you will have them delivered/e-mailed anyway. Someone was complaining about this in January, like:"why do I need to pay for the curriculum again?". Well, to be able to take the exam, that's why. So new CFAI books, and the bill, whether you like it or not.
Btw, I would have failed in June if the exam were 3 weeks earlier, kept at it and passed, so keep up the work, or start it now, more than a month to go, you never know.作者: eagles_dare13 时间: 2011-7-11 18:39

Best thing I've read all morning. ;)
As for repeating the exam in June, I can't see needing to 'learn' an entirely new set of material; the fundamentals will be the same, all that should be needed is a review of the new LOS, and new EOC problems.作者: manasib 时间: 2011-7-11 18:39
If you take it in the same calendar year you dont pay for the curriculum again. If you take it in a different calendar year you pay for the curriculum. I dont think you have a choice. If you are a retaker you dont pay the program enrollment fee no matter when you retake.
