You are way ahead of time and right on the track. 5-6 hours a day if you prepare, you can even try for Dec 09 exam.作者: johnnyBuz 时间: 2011-7-13 15:16
Yea,i thought of it too.....but it ain't worth it as i have no prior core knowledge of finance.Therefore i decided on appearing for june'10.

Jatboy. If you have the curriculum read by December to a point where you understand everything. You don't need to know it, just understand it.
If you aim for this you will be ahead of almost everybody.作者: Bulla564 时间: 2011-7-13 15:16

Even with a non-financial background?Do u actually believe 5-6 hrs a day would be enough?

You have 9+ months until the June 2010 exam.
9 months x 5hours per day x 23 days (assuming you take days off) = 1000+ hours
I think 300-400 hours is sufficient, albeit more than enough. But to each his own.作者: bluejazzy 时间: 2011-7-13 15:16
1.)Economics - I was reading it even the day before the exam, its a devil in disguise.
2.)FRA - 2 weeks
3.)Equity & Fixed income - 2 weeks
If you spent more just asking questions and waiting for each and every person on the forum to respond, you wont reach your goal buddy.
All the best!作者: MonkeyBusiness 时间: 2011-7-13 15:17
Take the dec exam, if you pass great, if not all it costs you is the price to registar again. 2 shots at the exam is better then one作者: bapswarrior 时间: 2011-7-13 15:17
