i took it 17 yrs ago when i graduated college and only passed 1 part. if i remember correctly (and i am sure things have changed) there are 4 parts and you need to pass at least 2 to retain them. i never retook it. if you are not an accounting major it would be very difficult to learn. But i think the cfa was tougher.作者: infinitybenzo 时间: 2011-7-13 16:50

Anyone who does CPA after completing CFA will think it's a walk in the park (assuming you have at least some accounting background). I finished the CPA in 2006 before embarking on the CFA.
It's four sections, which you can take one at a time. All you have to do is pass all four within 18 months. Most people can pass by studying for each section for one month, taking the exam, and then maybe taking one month off.
Studying is not nearly as intense as the CFA. The toughest section would be financial accounting. Got to know your debits and credits for that one. Reg/tax isn't too bad. Business/econ is pretty straightforward. Auditing really isn't too tough either.
