Advice: Can I Manage Given My Circumstances offered, material, expected, job, next

himanshumh

I started my L2 prep in early October, and just finished my first pass through the curriculum here in mid-Feb. This leaves me about 3 months to review and master the material.

Now heres the problem: I was offered a new job (Structured Finance) in which Im expected to start in mid-March. I will have to relocate over the next couple of weeks. This will put alot of stress on me to perform at a high level in a new role, while being right in the middle of crunch time for CFA L2.

Anybody have any advice?

you might as well give it a shot at this point! The next few months are gonna suck ass but just keep givin er...plus, you're ahead of the game if you've already gone through once.

You manage, just bring your notes everywhere.

You would be surprised by how much work you can get done travelling, except maybe if you have to drive to your new location.......in which case maybe audio bocks might help with all the running around. Maybe try and make cut backs in other parts of your life

In short

You = prepare well for the CFA level 2 = No Life

I think you should focus on your job, you can take L2 next year as well. Just IMO of course.

If you are done with the studying part, then revising shouldn't be difficult in these months.
