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?

Do blue sections and EOC Q’s

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.

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

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

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!
