Optimal strategy once 1st reading is Complete? all, summaries, mistakes, problems

tarunajwani

I will be done my 1st reading this Sunday. I am not sure where to go from here:
- Do a second reading? Skim through the pages?
- Go through CFA summaries of each study session?
- Maybe do all EOC CFAI problems right away?
- Start to memorize the qualitative details before hitting the questions?
- Go straight to Mock exams and learn form mistakes?
- Other?
What is your approach?

After you do EOC questions, you should do one of the sample tests from Schweser book 6 to assess your retention and time management. Then, review the sections you are weak and do the old CFA exams. That’s my plan for the second week of April. Good luck!

By the way, I prefer Schweser’s Secret Sauce to the summaries in the CFAI books.

I’d go through the summaries and do the EOC questions.

Agree with Janakisri. It is early enough where you can do the EOC’s twice actually.
Last year I did the EOCs as I went through my first read, then did them all again during the last 3 weeks or so and thought they were a big help on exam day.

Do blue sections and EOC Q’s
